Overview

  1. Prefix global variables with GLB_ if their values does not vary between environments.
  2. Prefix global variables with MIG_ if their values do vary between environments.

Rationale

  • The GLB_ prefix creates a clear indication that the global variable does not need to be modified when deploying to a environment.
    • The MIG_ prefix creates a clear indication that the global variable does need to be modified when deploying to a environment.
