Community App - required environment variables?
-
I have successfully created a working CloudronVersions.json: https://github.com/Tymeslot/tymeslot/blob/main/CloudronVersions.json
However, my app requires some environment variables to be startable. At the moment, the installation crashes until the user sets them and restarts the app afterwards.
Is there any way to handle this?

In your documentation i found this
‘ SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 64 | tr -d '\n')\ncloudron env set --app tymeslot.yourdomain.com \\n SECRET_KEY_BASE=$SECRET \\n PHX_HOST=tymeslot.yourdomain.com \\n PORT=4000’
Information like the domain are exposed by Cloudron already. https://docs.cloudron.io/packaging/cheat-sheet#environment-variables

Correct, but I'd still need to set a secret key, which is used for encryption. If I generate it automatically like that, wouldn't it be regenerated with every update or even app restart, which we should avoid?
For my version, I set it via cloudron env set, but this means the user would need to do the same.
