Leverage github workflow to build .env file from github secret

name: Create .env File

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - '*' # '*' will trigger on all branches; otherwise, enter default branch i.e. 'main'

jobs:
  create-env:
    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, windows-latest, macos-latest]

    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}

    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Create .env file
        run: |
          if [ ! -f .env ]; then
            echo "KB_SITE=${{ secrets.KB_SITE }}" > .env
            echo "KB_TOKEN=${{ secrets.KB_TOKEN }}" >> .env
            # Add more secrets as needed
          fi

      - name: Check OS
        run: |
          if [ "${{ runner.os }}" == "Windows" ]; then
            echo "Running on Windows"
          elif [ "${{ runner.os }}" == "macOS" ]; then
            echo "Running on macOS"
          else
            echo "Running on Linux (Ubuntu)"
          fi
