Error when setting Integer ENV variables in gdk.yml

Overview

Setting integer env variables in gdk.yml does not work. You have to wrap it in string quotes. I think GDK should accept integer variables without needing to be wrapped in quotes.

# you have to set integer variables this way
env:
  GITLAB_SIMULATE_SAAS: "1"

# currently this is not acceptable but I think it should be
env:
  GITLAB_SIMULATE_SAAS: 1

Details

I followed what's indicated in the guide and set my environment variables in gdk.yml instead of env.runit since it seems GDK was no longer reading variables in env.runit.

This is my environment variables in gdk.yml:

env:
  GITLAB_LICENSE_MODE: "test"
  CUSTOMER_PORTAL_URL: "https://customers.staging.gitlab.com"
  CLOUD_CONNECTOR_SELF_SIGN_TOKENS: 1
  GITLAB_SIMULATE_SAAS: 1
  AI_GATEWAY_URL: "http://gdk.test:5052"

When starting up Rails (in this case Rails Console), I get this error:

I have to wrap the Integer environment variables in string quotes in order to avoid the error, ie:

env:
  GITLAB_LICENSE_MODE: "test"
  CUSTOMER_PORTAL_URL: "https://customers.staging.gitlab.com"
  CLOUD_CONNECTOR_SELF_SIGN_TOKENS: "1"
  GITLAB_SIMULATE_SAAS: "1"
  AI_GATEWAY_URL: "http://gdk.test:5052"

• gdk-usability - e.g. Improvements or suggestions around how the GDK functions.
• gdk-performance - e.g. When a GDK action is slow or times out.
