run

Command: vlt run

The run command exposes your application's secrets as environment variables. It uses the secret's name in all upper case to set the environment variables. The logs and exit codes from the command are forwarded to the run output.

Examples

The run command runs a process while injecting secrets as an environment variable.

$ vlt run --command="env"

2023/05/23 15:44:47 [INFO] (child) spawning: env
...snipped...
EXPIRATION=October 2024

Tip

The command looks up the secrets stored in the application currently configured with vlt init. To point to a different application, project or organization, use the --app-name, --project or --organization to overwrite the current settings.
