Fastify runs on Node, so it reads Enkryptify secrets straight from process.env. There is no client bundle, so every secret stays on the server.

​
Local development

To run your app locally with Enkryptify secrets, install the Enkryptify CLI and link it to your project, then prefix your usual start script with ek run --:
Replace dev with whatever script starts your app. ek run fetches your project’s secrets and injects them as environment variables for that command only.

​
Accessing secrets in Fastify

Read injected values directly from process.env:
For typed, validated configuration, the @fastify/env plugin checks process.env against a schema so missing or malformed variables fail fast at startup. You no longer need dotenv or a .env file; ek run provides the variables.

​
Deploying

Run your server under ek run (for example ek run -- node server.js) wherever you control the process, or use a sync to push secrets into your host’s environment.
