Environment Variables

Environment variables can be used in your docker-compose.yaml file under the environment key, or via the CLI using the -e flag, to alter the functionality and output of the app.

Docker compose example:

services:
  m3u-editor:
    image: sparkison/m3u-editor:latest
    container_name: m3u-editor
    environment:
      - VARIABLE_NAME=value
    ...

or via CLI: docker run --name m3u-editor -e VARIABLE_NAME=value ...
