Parse Server: how to use the enviroment variables


I have installed the Parse Server inside a docker container and at the first glance it works. However there are a few enviroment variables (e.g. PARSE_SERVER_DATABASE_URI) that need to be set. Some of their meanings are easy to guess. However, there are also environment variables, which I do not understand what they supposed to do. Therefore I am curious, if there is a documentation of those environment variables. Many thanks in advance.


Solution

  • The full list of environment variables supported by the image can be found here.

    You can also run parse-server --help for similar insights.

    Usually, this kind of information can be found on the docker registry where the image is hosted or in the git repository.
