Need to make use of the settings.json, but unless it’s all compressed on to one line, doesn’t work!
Anyone know why?

What kind of error do you see? Maybe your json isn’t valid? Multiple lines should definitely not be an issue.
This is a known issue for builds on Windows and it’s a limitation in how Windows handles env vars
Not much Meteor can do about it unfortunately
Note: multi-line settings.json work fine in development on Windows, as long as it’s passed with the --settings settings.json
flag
Naw it breaks even on my linux production version.
Although I have seen some issues with return characters… Maybe that’s what is happening.
Passing the data through a validator before using may help identify any problems with data (e.g, http://www.jsoneditoronline.org). Sometimes copy and paste, specially from a rich-text tool/word processor, introduces some invalid chars which can make the json data invalid but hard to spot (like curly-quotes instead of plain-quotes for example).
Good tip, I’ll run it through that next time.
On the other hand, writing 1 giant JSON line forces you to really get good at it lol…
