Global conditional variables

[arslabora]

I have the following code in my templates, for each url:

{% if helpers.environment === "development" %}
        <script src="/assets/js/main.js" defer></script>
    {% else %}
        <script src="{{ site.url }}/assets/js/main.min.js" defer></script>
    {% endif %}

I would like to have tidier templates which uses only something like:
<script src="{{ site.url }}/assets/js/main.min.js" defer></script>
and a global condition that rewrite site.url for production or development environment, like:

if (process.env.ELEVENTY_ENV === 'development') {

        url = "";

    } else {

        url = "https://my.awesome.website";
    }

How can this be accomplished?

Thanks! ;)

You could put a JavaScript file in _data and module export that conditional logic as described in the docs.

Howdy y’all! As @Ryuno-Ki noted, this exact example is documented on the JavaScript Data Files docs page.

Thanks!
