El Captain设置环境变量

这里说的不是设置变量给bash/shell来用, 而是给程序使用, 比如, chromium自36版以后, 就不再内置google api keys, 官方文档说明你打包的时候没有添加key的话, 可以在runtime添加, 比如在系统的环境变量里添加进去.

Providing Keys at Runtime
If you prefer, you can build a Chromium binary (or use a pre-built Chromium binary) without API keys baked in, and instead provide them at runtime. To do so, set the environment variables GOOGLE_API_KEY, GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_ID and GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_SECRET to your "API key", "Client ID" and "Client secret" values respectively.

至于key哪来的请自行google, 我们不去申请key的话, 还是拿来主义:

export GOOGLE_API_KEY="AIzaSyCkfPOPZXDKNn8hhgu3JrA62wIgC93d44k"
export GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_ID="811574891467.apps.googleusercontent.com"
export GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_SECRET="kdloedMFGdGla2P1zacGjAQh"

关于如何在mac上设置环境变量, 有这么一篇雄文, 我一般是直接编辑~/.bash_profile文件, 这次不生效了, 改来改去都没用, 于是换关键词: yosemite/el captain下如何设置环境变量, 立刻就有答案了

头两个答案都可以, 第一个是使用了setenv VARIABLENAME=VALUE这种语法, 第二个是直接在一个文件里编辑, 然后使之生效, 我直接用了第二种, 因为文本随时可编辑, 可查看

1, Create an environment.plist file in ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ with this content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
  <key>Label</key>
  <string>my.startup</string>
  <key>ProgramArguments</key>
  <array>
    <string>sh</string>
    <string>-c</string>
    <string>
        launchctl setenv GOOGLE_API_KEY AIzaSyCkfPOPZXDKNn8hhgu3JrA62wIgC93d44k
        launchctl setenv GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_ID 811574891467.apps.googleusercontent.com
        launchctl setenv GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_SECRET kdloedMFGdGla2P1zacGjAQh
    </string>
  </array>
  <key>RunAtLoad</key>
  <true/>
</dict>
</plist>

2, You can add many launchctl commands inside the <string></string> block.可见, 我们只需要在string标签里写需要的内容就行了, 本例是一系列google api keys.

3, The plist will activate after system reboot. You can also use launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/environment.plist to launch it immediately.
