When specifying `:env_vars` in the tomo config file, you can now use a special `:generate_secret` value. This will automatically generate a secret using `SecureRandom.hex(64)` the first time it is needed. The tomo configuration template created by `tomo init` now includes this env var value: ``` SECRET_KEY_BASE: :generate_secret ``` This means that the first time the app is deployed, an appropriate value for `SECRET_KEY_BASE` will be generated automatically, without prompting the user.
