Currently the layoutServiceHost is read from a parameter in scjssconfig.json. This means that it needs to be changed and then a rebuild needs to occur for the change to take effect. Is it possible to change this to read from an environment variable so that we don't need to rebuild?

Not sure what you want the layoutServiceHost to be, but it's not mandatory. If you remove the layoutServiceHost parameter it will use the current host it's on. So that is also an option.

The JSS team have an answer here which outlines how to use environment variable and a .env file to move JSS config out of code. However, you still need to build the application and the environment variables of the build will be used.
