Docker agent configuration reference#

This guide is applicable to Dagster Cloud.

This reference describes the various configuration options Dagster Cloud currently supports for Docker agents.

Environment variables and secrets#

Using the container_context.docker.env_vars property, you can include environment variables and secrets in the Docker container associated with a specific code location. For example:

## dagster_cloud.yaml

container_context:
  docker:
    env_vars:
      - DATABASE_NAME
      - DATABASE_USERNAME=hooli_testing

The container_context.docker.env_vars property is a list, where each item can be either KEY or KEY=VALUE. If only KEY is specified, the value will be pulled from the local environment.
