»Application Configuration
Waypoint can configure your application via environment variables
via the CLI using waypoint config.
Applications often take configuration such as database URLs, ports to
listen on, etc. in the form of environment variables. Using waypoint config,
you can set these variables and Waypoint will automatically make them
available to your application.
This functionality requires the Waypoint entrypoint.
»Setting Configuration
Configuration can be set using waypoint config set.
$ waypoint config set DATABASE_URL="postgresql://example.com:5432"
This will make the DATABASE_URL environment variable present with the
given value for all deployed applications.
Waypoint currently will not restart your application when configuration changes. Configuration changes will only take effect when you redeploy your application. A future version of Waypoint will restart deployed applications.
»Project Scope
waypoint config set will set variables by default scoped to the project.
This means that all applications within your project will have the environment
variable set.
»Application Scope
You may use the -app flag to scope a variable to a specific application.
For this scope, only a specific application in the project will have the
configuration set.
$ waypoint config set -app web PORT=8080
»Unsetting Configuration
To delete a configuration variable, set it to the empty string.
