You can keep a file called .env.json and load it when you trigger deploy command

{
  "name": "project",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "scripts": {
    "deploy": "npm run env && firebase deploy --only functions",
    "env": "test -f env.json && firebase functions:config:unset env && firebase functions:config:set env=\"$(cat env.json)\" || echo \"Please add the file env.json before deploy.\""
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "firebase-functions": "^3.1.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "firebase-functions-test": "^0.1.6"
  }
}
