# Environment configuration | ||
# Configuration | ||

When developing a Probot App, you will need to have several different fields in a `.env` file which specify environment variables. Here are some common use cases: | ||
|
||
| Variable | Description | | ||
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ||
| `APP_ID` | The App ID assigned to your GitHub App. **Required** <p>_(Example: `1234`)_</p> | | ||
| **Private key options** | One of the following is **Required** if there is no `.pem` file in your project's root directory | | ||
| `PRIVATE_KEY_PATH` | The path to the `.pem` file for your GitHub App. <p>_(Example: `path/to/key.pem`)_</p> | | ||
| `PRIVATE_KEY` | The contents of the private key for your GitHub App. If you're unable to use multiline environment variables, use base64 encoding to convert the key to a single line string. See the [Deployment](deployment.md) docs for provider specific usage. | | ||
| **Webhook options** | | ||
| `WEBHOOK_PROXY_URL` | Allows your local development environment to receive GitHub webhook events. Go to https://smee.io/new to get started. <p>_(Example: `https://smee.io/your-custom-url`)_</p> | | ||
| `WEBHOOK_SECRET` | The webhook secret used when creating a GitHub App. 'development' is used as a default, but the value in `.env` needs to match the value configured in your App settings on GitHub. Note: GitHub marks this value as optional, but for optimal security it's required for Probot apps. **Required** <p>_(Example: `development`)_</p> | | ||
| Environment Variable | [Programmatic Argument](./development.md#run-probot-programmatically) | Description | | ||
| ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ||
| `APP_ID` | `new Probot({ appId })` | The App ID assigned to your GitHub App. **Required** <p>_(Example: `1234`)_</p> | | ||
| `PRIVATE_KEY` or `PRIVATE_KEY_PATH` | `new Probot({ privateKey })` | The contents of the private key for your GitHub App. If you're unable to use multiline environment variables, use base64 encoding to convert the key to a single line string. See the [Deployment](deployment.md) docs for provider specific usage. When using the `PRIVATE_KEY_PATH` environment variable, set it to the path of the `.pem` file that you downloaded from your GitHub App registration. <p>_(Example: `path/to/key.pem`)_</p> | | ||
| **Webhook options** | | | ||
| `WEBHOOK_PROXY_URL` | `new Server({ webhookProxy })` | Allows your local development environment to receive GitHub webhook events. Go to https://smee.io/new to get started. <p>_(Example: `https://smee.io/your-custom-url`)_</p> | | ||
| `WEBHOOK_SECRET` | `new Probot({ secret })` | The webhook secret used when creating a GitHub App. 'development' is used as a default, but the value in `.env` needs to match the value configured in your App settings on GitHub. Note: GitHub marks this value as optional, but for optimal security it's required for Probot apps. **Required** <p>_(Example: `development`)_</p> | | ||

||
Some less common environment variables are: | ||
|
||
| Variable | Description | | ||
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ||
| `GHE_HOST` | The hostname of your GitHub Enterprise instance. <p>_(Example: `github.mycompany.com`)_</p> | | ||
| `GHE_PROTOCOL` | The protocol of your GitHub Enterprise instance. Defaults to HTTPS. Do not change unless you are certain. <p>_(Example: `https`)_</p> | | ||
| `LOG_FORMAT` | By default, logs are formatted for readability in development. You can set this to `json` in order to disable the formatting | | ||
| `LOG_LEVEL` | The verbosity of logs to show when running your app, which can be `fatal`, `error`, `warn`, `info`, `debug`, `trace` or `silent`. Default: `info` | | ||
| `LOG_LEVEL_IN_STRING` | By default, when using the `json` format, the level printed in the log records is an int (`10`, `20`, ..). This option tells the logger to print level as a string: `{"level": "info"}`. Default `false` | | ||
| `SENTRY_DSN` | Set to a [Sentry](https://sentry.io/) DSN to report all errors thrown by your app. <p>_(Example: `https://[email protected]/12345`)_</p> | | ||
| `PORT` | The port to start the local server on. Default: `3000` | | ||
| `HOST` | The host to start the local server on. | | ||
| `WEBHOOK_PATH` | The URL path which will receive webhooks. Default: `/` | | ||
| `REDIS_URL` | Set to a `redis://` url as connection option for [ioredis](https://github.com/luin/ioredis#connect-to-redis) in order to enable [cluster support for request throttling](https://github.com/octokit/plugin-throttling.js#clustering). <p>_(Example: `redis://:[email protected]:12345/0`)_</p> | | ||

| `LOG_LEVEL_IN_STRING` | - | By default, when using the `json` format, the level printed in the log records is an int (`10`, `20`, ..). This option tells the logger to print level as a string: `{"level": "info"}`. Default `false` | | ||
