astro deployment variable create
For a given Deployment on Astro, create environment variables via the Astro CLI by supplying either a key and value pair or a file (e.g. .env) with a list of keys and values. This command is functionally identical to creating an environment variable via the Cloud UI. For more information, 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
