Hi @Yog9 can you try this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9338428/using-secret-api-keys-on-travis-ci ? I am unable to build forked repos in travis so just wanted to see if this works for you. if not I am planning to clone and try building from my side

@junevarsha correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe you could hide the api keys in a .env file, I've done it with Node projects. BUT I have no clue if that would help with Travis CI.

@junevarsha Sure I will try this and let you know

Hey @Yog9 , did you work on it? I'm a front-end newbie and looking for repos to contribute to. I can add .env file (like @jcstang suggested) and make the API key private.

I tried adding the api key to a .env file and then accessing it in the API call function but it doesn't work. All .env variables come as undefined even though you've defined those.
