Environment Variables¶
See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/v1/userguide/cli-configure-envvars.html. Also:
Required¶
DYNAMODB_TABLE_PREFIX - The prefix to add to all DynamoDB tables.
This is required because the table namespace is top-level within an AWS account; unlike SQL, there is no higher-level DATABASE namespace.
For testing, a random prefix is created, tables are created with this prefix, and the tables are deleted if the tests conclude successfully.
Optional for Demo Mode¶
DEMO_COURSE_ID - Run in demo mode with this course. The Makefile creates a demo course called demo.
DEMO_DYNAMODB_PREFIX - Use tables with this prefix. The Makefile creates tables with a prefix demo.
DEMO_USER_EMAIL - Identifies the demo user. The Makefile creates a user with the email demo@planttracer.com.
Optional for using AWS¶
Region selection:
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION - The AWS region you are using.
AWS_PROFILE - Which profile in the $HOME/.aws/credentials and $HOME/.aws/config the webapp will use.
Optional for sending mail¶
PLANTTRACER_CREDENTIALS - A configuration file that has email credentials
Optional for Local Development¶
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION - The AWS region you are using.
AWS_PROFILE - Which profile in the $HOME/.aws/credentials the webapp will use. Should be minio when using minio (assuming profile is installed)
AWS_ENDPOINT_URL_DYNAMODB - For local development, this must be set to the localhost and the port on which DynamoDBlocal is listening. It is typically http://localhost:8010.
AWS_ENDPOINT_URL_S3 - For local development, this must be set to the localhost and the port on which minIO is listening. It is typically http://localhost:9100.
For local usage:
Minio - If you are using minio, either AWS_PROFILE should be minio (and the minio profile should be installed) or both AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_KEY should be minioadmin.
