astro deployment variable create
For a given Deployment on Astro, create environment variables in the Astro CLI by supplying either a key and value pair or a file (for example, .env) with a list of keys and values. This command is functionally identical to creating an environment variable in the Cloud UI. See Set Environment Variables on Astro.
Usage
astro deployment variable create <key>=<value>
To create environment variables in an automated process such as a CI/CD pipeline, set the following OS-level environment variables in a way that the Astro CLI can access them:
ASTRONOMER_KEY_IDASTRONOMER_KEY_SECRET
After setting these variables, astro deployment variable create works for your Deployment on Astro and you don't need to manually authenticate to Astronomer. Astronomer recommends storing ASTRONOMER_KEY_SECRET as a secret before using it to programmatically update production-level Deployments.
Options
| Option | Description | Possible Values |
|---|---|---|
-d,--deployment-id | The ID of the Deployment in which to create environment variable(s). | Any valid Deployment ID |
--deployment-name | The name of the Deployment in which to create environment variable(s). Use as an alternative to <deployment-id>. | Any valid Deployment name |
-e,--env | The path to a file that contains a list of environment variables. If a filepath isn't specified, this looks for a .env file in your current directory. If .env doesn't exist, this flag will create it for you | Any valid filepath |
-l,--load | Export new environment variables from your Astro project's .env file to the Deployment. This is an alternative to creating an environment variable by manually specifying --key and --value. By default, this flag exports all new environment variables based on the file specified with --env | `` |
-s,--secret | Set the value of the new environment variable as secret | `` |
-w,--workspace-id | Create or update an environment variable for a Deployment that is not in your current Workspace. If this is not specified, your current Workspace is assumed | Any valid Workspace ID |
Examples
# Create a new secret environment variable
$ astro deployment variable create --deployment-id cl03oiq7d80402nwn7fsl3dmv AIRFLOW__SECRETS__BACKEND_KWARGS=<my-secret-value> --secret
# Create multiple environment variables for a Deployment at once by specifying multiple keys
$ astro deployment variable create AIRFLOW__CORE__PARALLELISM=32 MAX_ACTIVE_TASKS_PER_DAG=16 --deployment-id cl03oiq7d80402nwn7fsl3dmv
# Create multiple environment variables for a Deployment at once by loading them from a .env file
$ astro deployment variable create --deployment-name="My Deployment" --load --env .env.dev
