kit: RollupError: "AUTH_SECRET" is not exported by "virtual:$env/static/private", imported by "src/hooks.server.ts"

Found the solution and expectedly feel stupid, I guess I didn’t read the documentation properly. Based on the error messages, it looks like it’s the same issue both @janguardian and @PlkMarudny ran into.

In Sveltekit, dynamic and static environment variables are accessed differently.

Static

import { API_KEY } from '$env/static/private';

console.log(API_KEY)

Dynamic

import { env } from '$env/dynamic/private';

console.log(env.API_KEY)

I am afraid this does not work either. OK, what I did is I created the fresh ‘skeleton’ project, JS + JSDoc:

pnpm create svelte@latest my-app
cd my-app
pnpm install
pnpm run dev

pnpm install output:

Packages are hard linked from the content-addressable store to the virtual store.    
  Content-addressable store is at: C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\pnpm\store\v3
  Virtual store is at:             node_modules/.pnpm

I added a /src/routes/+layout.js with:

export const prerender = false;

I added /src/routes/+server.js with:

import { EXAMPLE } from "$env/dynamic/private"

Created also a .env file with:

EXAMPLE=test

Next, issued pnpm run build and the result was:

Ok so you’re not using prerendering - in that case, it should be possible to keep using $env/dynamic/.. and we need to fix it
