Hey all quick questions about environment variables being passed to jobs in k8. In the helm chart, what is the difference between setting variables on the

pipelineRun

configuration and the

runLauncher

configuration? Does pipelineRun assure that no matter what the config type is set at the runLauncher, it will have those values, and then the envs in the runLancher are for whatever is utilized?

The

pipelineRun

block is going to be deprecated,

runLauncher

is the correct place

Ok got it, and the idea is that you would set the variables you want to be passed from your user-deployment via the

envVars

? So if the user-deployment contained

MY_VAR: test

, for

envVars

you would just pass

MY_VAR

.

Those env vars are actually going to be sourced from Dagit or the Daemon (depending where the run is launched from). For a lot of cases that doesn’t make a bunch of sense, so we often recommend k8s configmaps instead

Got it, alright will make that change then. Thanks!
