Hello Community! My team has recently started using Elixir and Phoenix. Im responsible for deploying our applications. My main experience so far is with Javascript and Golang. I only have started working with Elixir in the last few weeks. Im struggling to understand how environment variables are…

I’m not sure Distillery even supports runtime.exs. At least the error you showed doesn’t match the code. String.to_integer can never return nil. I’d suggest using mix release unless you actually need hot code updates, which is imo the only reason one would be using distillery for today.
