02/06/2023, 6:08 PMHey guys, I'm deploying Dagster using helm and trying to figure out how to set an envVar for DataDog and trying to set DD_ENTITY_ID and DD_AGENT_HOST with the following configs. I'm not really sure where to be setting these variables since the env template only takes key value pairs
Copy code
{
name: 'DD_ENTITY_ID',
valueFrom: {
fieldRef: {
apiVersion: 'v1',
fieldPath: 'metadata.uid'
}
}
},
{
name: 'DD_AGENT_HOST',
valueFrom: {
fieldRef: {
fieldPath: 'status.hostIP'
}
}

02/06/2023, 6:48 PMI'm running into an issue where env is a dictionary rather than a list so I can't pass in custom values for env vars, is there a workaround?
Derek Truong
02/06/2023, 6:52 PMFound a test where it's being passed in but not sure where this is sourced from https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/pull/4954/files#diff-514c7ac9f3c55c59b8a695302c29d553b8803752c5b1570bf3f9b3ac064a6085R198

02/06/2023, 8:46 PMspecifically for dagit and dagster-daemon
Derek Truong
02/06/2023, 8:47 PMI've figured this out for the runk8sconfig just not the other two mentioned above

02/07/2023, 2:03 AMHey Derek - we may need to make some tweaks to the Helm chart to support arbitrary config in the 'envFrom' field
daniel
02/07/2023, 2:03 AM(for dagit and the dagster-daemon)
daniel
02/07/2023, 3:39 AMDo you also want to set it for user code deployments? I could imagine similar challenges there currently
daniel
02/07/2023, 3:42 AMAs a short term workaround until we add the right keys to the helm chart for this, I could imagine using kustomize to customize the dagit / daemon templates https://kustomize.io

02/07/2023, 4:07 PMHey Daniel, thank you so much for your response! We'd ideally have the envFrom for dagit, dagster-daemon, and user code deployments if possible. I'll definitely look into the workaround. Is there like a rough estimate you have on when this change could be worked on?

daniel
02/07/2023, 4:08 PMDouble-checking - i think you want env not envFrom?
daniel
02/07/2023, 4:08 PM(our env is just formatted differently from the 'standard' env in kubernetes)

Derek Truong
02/07/2023, 4:21 PMOh you're actually right, we want the ability to pass in a list of objects for the env rather than being limited to key-value pair
Derek Truong
02/07/2023, 4:22 PMI think typically you're able to pass in a list rather than a dictionary
