[DOCUMENTATION] Custom chain from .env

[ZAlexanderV]

Is it possible to add custom chains from .env file and disable cosmos registry?
Can anyone provide an example .env file for a custom network?

Yes. You can set NEXT_PUBLIC_MULTICHAIN=false and that will disable the chain selection menu. Data will be queried from the chain-registry, still. In order to use a custom network you can also set some more variables on the envfile, you can see them in this function prefixed with NEXT_PUBLIC_ (this is not documented anywhere, sorry about that!).

I constructed .env.local with values from function, but seems code is broken.
Prefix, Chain name are not applied and not working.
Same values entered in the modal form works fine.

Have you tried navigating directly to <url>/<my-registry>, where url would be your localhost or wherever you are hosting it, and my-registry would be the value of NEXT_PUBLIC_REGISTRY_NAME in your envfile (and not named like another chain from the registry)? I tried that and it loaded the values correctly
