Example

The example below is of a container with a webserver but before starting the server it will compile the config file template using the run command.

Environment variables (.env)

MONGO_URL="mongodb://user:password@my.server.com/mydb"
JWT_SECRET="my$uper$ecret"
SERVER_BIND="0.0.0.0"
SERVER_PORT="8000"

Local JSON file (/mnt/shared/secrets/vars.json)

{
  "server": {
    "bind": "0.0.0.0"
  }
}

Remote JSON file (http://config-service/app/config.json)

{
  "server": {
    "port": "1234"
  }
}

AWS SecretManager

Secret name: jwtconfig

{
  "jwt": {
    "secret": "myjwtsecret"
  }
}

Config template (config.toml.dist)

[database]
url = "{{MONGO_URL}}"

[jwt]
secret = "{{jwt.secret|JWT_SECRET}}"

[server]
bind = "{{server.bind|SERVER_BIND}}"
port = "{{server.port|SERVER_PORT}}"
