Running your app

Use keyshade CLI to run your app

In the previous section, we added keyshade to our project. Now, let's run our app.

Generally we run NextJS apps using the npm run dev command. But to make keyshade work, we will need to run it using this command:

keyshade run "npm run dev"

Note: In case you have used something else in place of NextJS, use the same command to run your app. For example, if you have used a simple NodeJS app, you could use keyshade run "node index.js"

Once you run this, you would see the following output:

output

As you can see, there are some additional logs stating that keyshade was successfully set up.

You can also see the following line:

[INFO] 2025-04-27 17:25:03 - Fetched 2 configurations (1 secrets, 1 variables)

This states that keyshade was able to fetch 2 configurations - 1 secret and 1 variable.

Seeing the results

We have successfully added keyshade to our project. Now, let's see the results.

Head over to http://localhost:3000 and you should see the following:

output

The app has fetched the secret and variable from keyshade and injected them into the app.

That's it! You have successfully added keyshade to your project.
