Question
How to use App Platform's bindable environment variables in Dockerfile
I was following the tutorial on How to Use Environment Variables in App Platform, and I am unable to figure out how to use these convenience variables in my Dockerfile.
I am specifically trying to print the COMMIT_HASH
to a file in the container of my web
component.
ARG web.COMMIT_HASH=unspecified
RUN echo ${web.COMMIT_HASH} > /www/commithash.txt
I’ve also tried pulling it in using ENV
but that fails during build.
ENV GITHASH=${web\.COMMIT_HASH:-unspecified}
RUN echo ${GITHASH} > /www/githash.txt
It errors out at the .
dot.
So is there a way to get these convenience environment variables into my Dockerfile?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
