Hi everyone, Do you know if there is a way to deploy an app twice on the IC to use those canisters as a staging environment ?

could you provide an example dfx.json and clarify if there are any corresponding changes required in our build script file? like webpack.config or vite.config

I could come up an example for this, but to be clear, both the “staging” and “production” canisters would be live on the IC mainnet, as there isn’t a staging environment. The distinction between the two would be artificial, and you’d probably want a pencil banner on the staging website to make sure …

Yes I have the same need even if it’s on mainnet it could be useful.

@anthonymq did you figure out the error message? It was because there’s no wallet configured for “staging”. I added a note to the Readme just now that explains a quick command you can use to configure your new network to use the same wallet as IC. dfx identity --network staging set-wallet $(dfx ide…

@kevinli Is there some way work out?

@anon74414410 i’m running into the same problem, do you have a fix for this?
