hi I m trying to make u…

hi! I’m trying to make use of fileReplacements in my production configuration (it’s an angular app). I’m adding this { "replace": "apps/frontend/src/configurations/config.json", "with": "apps/frontend/src/configurations/config.prod.json" } in projects.frontend.architect.build.configurations.production.fileReplacements I also have "apps/frontend/src/configurations/config.json", added to projects.frontend.architect.build.options.assets . I expect to get the content of config.prod.json replaced into config.json in my dist/apps/frontend folder after I build the app

Well, this is not happening. Any ideas why this configuration does not work with assets?

Responses:

Sorry if this could be an obvious question… but are you sure you’re building in production configuration? e.g. –prod

yup. –prod

ok, check if “fileReplacements”: [] is an array

yeah, it is. i’m trying right now to test it on a new project because my repo is quite big now

so I tried using a fresh project with just an angular app and it doesn’t work either :disappointed:

weird :disappointed: don’t know…

found it https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/16779 i’ll have to see how i fix this :sweat:

Weird, I used it yesterday. Which versions are you using?
