Required env vars for WPT? #55

Closed cweekly closed 2 years ago

cweekly commented 3 years ago

I like the idea of this project, but am confused about how to start using it with my private instance of webpagetest.

The docs/webpagetest.md file notes:

## Required Environmental Variables

- `GCP_PROJECT_ID` - The project unique ID in the Google Cloud Platform. 
- `SERVICE_ACCOUNT_CREDENTIALS` - The path to the Service Account json file.

... where I would've expected to see maybe optional env vars for WEBPAGETEST_SERVER or WPT_API_KEY or similar. Is there really a dependency on GCP and a "Service Account json file"?

Hi @cweekly, sorry for late response here.

If you are just auditing using WebPageTest, you don't need GCP_PROJECT_ID or SERVICE_ACCOUNT_CREDENTIALS, which is majorly used for PageSpeedIndex gatherer. However, if it's something prevent you running the audits, please let us know. We'd fix it.

Thanks!
