Fixed Variables

If the source is none, DevSpace will use the default value as value for this config variable.

images:
  database:
    image: "mysql:${MYSQL_VERSION}"
vars:
- name: MYSQL_VERSION
  source: none
  default: "5.5"

Configuration

name

The name option expects a string stating the name of the config variable that will be used to reference it within the remainder of the configuration.

Must be unique

The name of a config variable must be unique and is mandatory when defining a config variable.

default

The default option expects a string defining the default value for the variable.

Type Casting

If a default value is specified, DevSpace will assume the type of the default value as the type for the variable, i.e. when default: "123" is defined and a value of 123 (int) is provided it would be casted to "123" (string). To explicitly use the value of a variable as a string within devspace.yaml, use $!{VAR_NAME} instead of ${VAR_NAME}.

info

If using source: none, the default value is the fixed value for this variable. It will only be changed using a config patch.
