# Apollo Multi-Environment Setup
## Overview
Configure Apollo.io for multiple environments (development, staging, production) with proper isolation, configuration management, and deployment strategies.
## Environment Strategy
| Environment | Purpose | API Key | Rate Limit | Data Access |
|-------------|---------|---------|------------|-------------|
| Development | Local dev | Dev/Sandbox | Low (10/min) | Test data only |
| Staging | Pre-prod testing | Staging key | Medium (50/min) | Limited prod |
| Production | Live system | Production key | Full (100/min) | Full access |
## Configuration Structure
```typescript
// src/config/apollo/environments.ts
import { z } from 'zod';
const EnvironmentConfigSchema = z.object({
apiKey: z.string().min(1),
baseUrl: z.string().url().default('https://api.apollo.io/v1'),
rateLimit: z.number().positive(),
timeout: z.number().positive().default(30000),
cacheEnabled: z.boolean().default(true),
cacheTtl: z.number().positive().default(300),
features: z.object({
search: z.boolean().default(true),
enrichment: z.boolean().default(true),
sequences: z.boolean().default(false),
webhooks: z.boolean().default(false),
}),
logging: z.object({
level: z.enum(['debug', 'info', 'warn', 'error']),
redactPII: z.boolean().default(true),
}),
});
type EnvironmentConfig = z.infer<typeof EnvironmentConfigSchema>;
const configs: Record<string, EnvironmentConfig> = {
development: {
apiKey: process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY_DEV || '',
baseUrl: 'https://api.apollo.io/v1',
rateLimit: 10,
timeout: 30000,
cacheEnabled: true,

sequences: false, // Disabled in dev
webhooks: false,
},
logging: {

redactPII: false, // Show full data in dev
},
},

},
};
export function getConfig(): EnvironmentConfig {
const env = process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development';
const config = configs[env];
if (!config) {
throw new Error(`Unknown environment: ${env}`);
}
// Validate configuration
const result = EnvironmentConfigSchema.safeParse(config);
if (!result.success) {
throw new Error(`Invalid Apollo config for ${env}: ${result.error.message}`);
}
return result.data;
}
export function validateEnvironment(): void {
const config = getConfig();
if (!config.apiKey) {
throw new Error('Apollo API key is required');
}
console.log(`Apollo configured for ${process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development'}`);
console.log(` Rate limit: ${config.rateLimit}/min`);
console.log(` Features: ${Object.entries(config.features).filter(([,v]) => v).map(([k]) => k).join(', ')}`);
}
```

## Kubernetes ConfigMaps
```yaml

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: apollo-config
namespace: development

NODE_ENV: "development"

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: apollo-secrets
namespace: ${NAMESPACE}
type: Opaque
stringData:

## Environment-Aware Client
```typescript
// src/lib/apollo/env-client.ts
import { getConfig } from '../../config/apollo/environments';
class EnvironmentAwareApolloClient {
private config = getConfig();
async request<T>(options: RequestOptions): Promise<T> {
// Check feature flag
if (!this.isFeatureEnabled(options.feature)) {
throw new Error(`Feature ${options.feature} is disabled in ${process.env.NODE_ENV}`);
}
// Apply environment-specific rate limiting
await this.rateLimiter.acquire();
// Make request with environment config
const response = await axios({
...options,
baseURL: this.config.baseUrl,
timeout: this.config.timeout,
params: {
...options.params,
api_key: this.config.apiKey,
},
});
// Log based on environment
this.log('info', `Apollo ${options.method} ${options.url}`, {
status: response.status,
duration: response.headers['x-response-time'],
});
return response.data;
}
private isFeatureEnabled(feature: string): boolean {
return this.config.features[feature as keyof typeof this.config.features] ?? true;
}
private log(level: string, message: string, meta?: object): void {
if (this.shouldLog(level)) {
const sanitized = this.config.logging.redactPII
? this.redactPII(meta)
: meta;
console[level as 'log'](`[Apollo] ${message}`, sanitized);
}
}
private shouldLog(level: string): boolean {
const levels = ['debug', 'info', 'warn', 'error'];
return levels.indexOf(level) >= levels.indexOf(this.config.logging.level);
}
}
```
## Testing Across Environments
```typescript
// tests/integration/env-tests.ts
describe('Environment Configuration', () => {
const originalEnv = process.env.NODE_ENV;
afterEach(() => {
process.env.NODE_ENV = originalEnv;
});
it('loads development config correctly', () => {
process.env.NODE_ENV = 'development';
const config = getConfig();
expect(config.rateLimit).toBe(10);
expect(config.features.sequences).toBe(false);
});
it('loads staging config correctly', () => {
process.env.NODE_ENV = 'staging';
const config = getConfig();
expect(config.rateLimit).toBe(50);
expect(config.features.sequences).toBe(true);
});
it('loads production config correctly', () => {
process.env.NODE_ENV = 'production';
const config = getConfig();
expect(config.rateLimit).toBe(90);
expect(config.logging.redactPII).toBe(true);
});
it('throws on missing API key', () => {
process.env.NODE_ENV = 'production';
delete process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY;
expect(() => validateEnvironment()).toThrow();
});
});
```
## Environment Promotion
```bash
#!/bin/bash
# scripts/promote-to-staging.sh
echo "Promoting to staging environment..."
# Verify staging key is configured
if [ -z "$APOLLO_API_KEY_STAGING" ]; then
echo "Error: APOLLO_API_KEY_STAGING not set"
exit 1
fi
# Run staging tests
NODE_ENV=staging npm run test:integration
# Deploy to staging
kubectl apply -f k8s/configmaps/apollo-config-staging.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/secrets/apollo-secrets-staging.yaml
kubectl rollout restart deployment/apollo-service -n staging
# Verify deployment
kubectl rollout status deployment/apollo-service -n staging
curl -sf https://staging.example.com/health/apollo || exit 1
echo "Successfully promoted to staging"
```
## Output
- Environment-specific configurations
- Kubernetes ConfigMaps and Secrets
- Environment-aware client
- Feature flags per environment
- Environment promotion scripts
## Error Handling
| Issue | Resolution |
|-------|------------|
| Wrong environment | Check NODE_ENV variable |
| Missing API key | Verify secrets configuration |
| Feature disabled | Check environment config |
| Rate limit mismatch | Verify config values |
