## Environment Variables
In case you want to pass more information to `produce` using environment variables:
- `PRODUCE_USERNAME` (your iTunes Connect username)
- `PRODUCE_APP_IDENTIFIER` (the bundle identifier of the new app)
- `PRODUCE_APP_NAME` (the name of the new app)
- `PRODUCE_LANGUAGE` (the language you want your app to use, e.g. `English`, `German`)
- `PRODUCE_VERSION` (the initial app version)
- `PRODUCE_SKU` (the SKU you want to use, which must be a unique number)
- `PRODUCE_SKIP_ITC` (should iTunes Connect app be created)
- `PRODUCE_SKIP_DEVCENTER` (should Apple Developer Portal app be created)
- `PRODUCE_TEAM_ID` (the Team ID, e.g. `Q2CBPK58CA`)
- `PRODUCE_TEAM_NAME` (the Team Name, e.g. `Felix Krause`)
## [`fastlane`](https://github.com/KrauseFx/fastlane) Integration
Your `Fastfile` should look like this
```ruby
lane :appstore do
produce(
username: 'felix@krausefx.com',
app_identifier: 'com.krausefx.app',
app_name: 'MyApp',
language: 'English',
version: '1.0',
sku: 123,
team_name: 'SunApps GmbH' # only necessary when in multiple teams
)
deliver
end
```
To use the newly generated app in `deliver`, you need to add this line to your `Deliverfile`:
```ruby
apple_id ENV['PRODUCE_APPLE_ID']
```
This will tell `deliver`, which `App ID` to use, since the app is not yet available in the App Store.
You'll still have to fill out the remaining information (like screenshots, app description and pricing). You can use [deliver](https://github.com/KrauseFx/deliver) to upload your app metadata using a CLI
## How is my password stored?
`produce` uses the [password manager](https://github.com/fastlane/CredentialsManager) from `fastlane`. Take a look the [CredentialsManager README](https://github.com/fastlane/CredentialsManager) for more information.
