Delegate environment variables

The following environment variables are available for use in the delegate manifest. Some of these variables are included in the YAML by default; you can specify others based on use case.

ACCOUNT_ID

The Harness account Id of the account with which this delegate registers.

This value is automatically added to the delegate configuration file (the application manifest of a Kubernetes delegate) when you add the delegate.

- name: ACCOUNT_ID
value: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

ACCOUNT_SECRET

The Harness account token that is used to register the delegate.

- name: ACCOUNT_SECRET
value: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

DELEGATE_DESCRIPTION

A text description of the delegate. The description is added to the delegate before registration, in Harness Manager or in YAML. This value is displayed on the delegate details page in Harness Manager.

- name: DELEGATE_DESCRIPTION
value: ""

DELEGATE_NAME

The name of the delegate. This is the name that identifies a registered delegate in Harness.

This value is not specified when delegate creation is automated. Instead, a script is used to duplicate the delegate YAML file and add a unique name to the DELEGATE_NAME environment variable for each delegate to be registered. Go to Automate delegate installation.

- name: DELEGATE_NAME
value: qa

DELEGATE_NAMESPACE

The namespace for the delegate is taken from the StatefulSet namespace.

- name: DELEGATE_NAMESPACE
valueFrom:
fieldRef:
fieldPath: metadata.namespace

DELEGATE_ORG_IDENTIFIER

The Harness organization Identifier in which the delegate registers.

Delegates at the account level do not have a value for this variable.

- name: DELEGATE_ORG_IDENTIFIER
value: "engg"

DELEGATE_PROJECT_IDENTIFIER

The Harness project Identifier in which the delegate registers.

Delegates at the account or organization level do not have a value for this variable.

- name: DELEGATE_PROJECT_IDENTIFIER
value: "myproject"

DELEGATE_TAGS

Delegate tags are descriptors that are added to the delegate before the registration process, in Harness Manager or in YAML. Harness generates tags based on the delegate name; you can add others. You can specify multiple tags in YAML as a comma-separated list.

Tags are displayed on the delegate details page in Harness Manager. Go to Tags reference and Use delegate selectors.

- name: DELEGATE_TAGS
value: ""

- name: DELEGATE_TAGS
value: has_jq, has_gcloud

DELEGATE_TYPE

The type of the delegate.

- name: DELEGATE_TYPE
value: "KUBERNETES"

INIT_SCRIPT

Used to specify a script that runs when the delegate is initialized. You can use this environment variable to run scripts on the delegate but this is not a best practice. Delegate initialization should be built into the image; not determined on startup.

- name: INIT_SCRIPT
value: |-echo install wget
apt-get install wget
echo wget installed

JAVA_OPTS

Use the JAVA_OPTS environment variable to add or override JVM parameters. The delegate accepts the following JVM options.

- name: JAVA_OPTS
value: "-XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseCGroupMemoryLimitForHeap -XX:MaxRAMFraction=2 -Xms64M"

LOG_STREAMING_SERVICE_URL

Use this variable to specify the endpoint for your log service in Harness NextGen. This variable is not used in Harness FirstGen.

- name: LOG_STREAMING_SERVICE_URL
value: "YOUR_MANAGER_ENDPOINT/log-service/"

MANAGER_HOST_AND_PORT

The Harness SaaS manager URL. The specification of HTTPS in the URL indicates the use of port 443.

- name: MANAGER_HOST_AND_PORT
value: https://app.harness.io

NEXT_GEN

Whether the delegate is registers in Harness NextGen or FirstGen. A value of true indicates that the delegate registers in Harness NextGen; a value of false indicates that the delegate registers in FirstGen.

- name: NEXT_GEN
value: "true"

POLL_FOR_TASKS

Enables or disables polling for delegate tasks.By default, the Delegate uses Secure WebSocket (WSS) for tasks. If the PROXY\_\* settings are used and the proxy or some intermediary does not allow WSS, then set POLL\_FOR\_TASKS to true to enable polling.

- name: POLL_FOR_TASKS
value: "false"

STACK_DRIVER_LOGGING_ENABLED

Delegates send logs to Harness by default. Harness uses these logs for debugging and support. To disable this functionality, set this value to "false".

- name: STACK_DRIVER_LOGGING_ENABLED
value: "false"

PROXY_*

You can use delegate proxy settings to change how the delegate connects to Harness Manager.

The secretKeyRef values are named based on delegate name.

- name: PROXY_HOST
value: ""
- name: PROXY_PORT
value: ""
- name: PROXY_SCHEME
