Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/issues/3304

Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

It looks like for container hoppscotch-backend the .env file must also located in packages/hoppscotch-backend
I can't build containers cause missing env variables.
Just when copy .env file from git-root to packages/hoppscotch-backend it works.
Also pnpm exec prisma migrate deploy will fail when .env is missing in packages/hoppscotch-backend.

Steps to reproduce

As described in Installation Steps i've create an .env file in root directory of repo.
Run pnpm install => works
When running

cd packages/hoppscotch-backend
pnpm exec prisma migrate deploy

i got a error for missing .env file

also when running docker compose build i got this error message Error: mailer/smtp_url_undefined
for both cases i copied .env to packages/hoppscotch-backend and now it works

Environment

Production

Version

Self-hosted
