Configure your app

Podplane deployment templates handle the Kubernetes boilerplate while keeping common application settings available as CLI flags.

Environment variables

Use -e or --env for non-secret configuration:

podplane deploy web --name api \
  -e LOG_LEVEL=info \
  -e API_ORIGIN=https://api.example.com

These values are stored in the rendered Deployment and Helm release metadata. Use the application secrets guide for passwords, tokens, private keys, and other sensitive values.

Routes and ports

The web template accepts a hostname and path directly:

podplane deploy web --name api \
  --hostname api.example.com \
  --path /v1

Use schema-backed template values for less common settings:

podplane deploy web --name api --set app.port=3000

See Deployment Templates for the complete web and worker behavior, workload certificates, and supported values.

Inspect a deployment

podplane logs api
podplane shell api

Re-run podplane deploy with the same name to update an application. Remove it with podplane remove --name api.

For exact flags, see the deploy, logs, shell, and remove references.
