# Setting up GitHub SSH keys on Expo EAS
### This repository contains the source code for tutorial at: https://blog.swmansion.com/setting-up-github-ssh-key-on-expo-eas-e678c134bf3f
## 📄 Overview
[Expo Application Services (EAS)](https://expo.dev/eas) is a set of powerful and highly customizable tools for building your React Native apps, automating the CI/CD and streamlined submissions to the app stores. It offers out-of-the-box integration with GitHub, allowing you to e.g. run CI/CD workflows on each pull request or push to the specific branch. But sometimes we might just need to perform some operations on a repository without the full integration, which would require us to set up access to GitHub on the EAS runner. This example explores three different ways of configuring such access on Expo EAS.

## 🔨 Building the project
### ⚙️ Preqrequisites
Before building this example please make sure that:
- You have correct EAS `projectId` set up in `app.json`
- You have configured the SSH key both on GitHub and as an Expo EAS environment variable – instructions for those steps can be found in the tutorial
- Replaced the repo name and URL with your data in `scripts/new-tag.sh`
- Specified the correct Git email address and user name either in `scripts/setup-github-access.sh` or in `.eas/build/setupGithubAccess/src/index.ts` depending on your choice
### 🏗️ Rebuilding the TypeScript function
If you plan to use and made any changes to the TypeScript function make sure to rebuild it by cd-ing into its directory and running the following command:
```bash
cd .eas/build/setupGithubAccess
npm run build
```
### ☁️ Building on EAS cloud
Run the following command to start an EAS cloud build:
```
eas build -p -e
# e.g.
eas build -p android -e development
```
**Note:** The build can also be run locally by appending the `--local` flag to the above command, e.g:
```
eas build -p android -e development --local
```
