Platform variables

These configure the platform. For variables your apps read at runtime, see Environment variables.

Control-plane variablesCopy Anchor Link

These configure the dashboard, API, database and control-plane defaults.

Variables read by install.shCopy Anchor Link

Written into /opt/deplo/.env and read by docker compose --env-file. Set them before the install command.

The installer also honours DEPLO_SKIP_NET_CHECKS=1, DEPLO_IMAGE, DEPLO_TRACE, DEPLO_LOG_FILE, and DEPLO_DIR. The agent installer accepts DEPLO_TRACE and DEPLO_LOG_FILE too.

Variables read by install-agent.shCopy Anchor Link

Set in front of install-agent.sh. See Server roles for what each role changes on the host.

• DEPLO_SERVER_IP must be a real, internet-reachable address. Generated hostnames encode an IPv4 in hexadecimal and an IPv6 after v6-, so a private or loopback address produces URLs that only work from that machine.
• A hostname in DEPLO_PUBLIC_URL cannot seed a deplo.site name, so Deplo falls through to interface detection for the IP. Set DEPLO_SERVER_IP explicitly on a multi-homed box.
• DEPLO_DATA_DIR is staging, not storage. Nothing durable lives there.
• Build-time placeholders exist in the Dockerfile for the database URL and the secret. They never reach the runtime image and are not usable values.
