Service Environment (injected into other containers)

Section titled “Service Environment (injected into other containers)”
Variable Template Value Resolved Example
REDIS_URL redis://{{.ContainerName}}:6379 redis://charly-valkey:6379

Pod-aware: same-container consumers receive redis://localhost:6379, cross-container consumers receive redis://charly-valkey:6379. When charly config runs, REDIS_URL is automatically injected into the global charly.yml env for service discovery (Redis-compatible protocol).

See /charly-image:layer for env_provide field docs.
