Service Independent Envvars

The following environment variables are service independent. You will find the respective code in the ocis-pkg/ directory. See the Admin Documentation - Environment Variables with Special Scopes for a comprehensive list and explanation.

See the Environment Variables documentation for common and important details on envvars.

Service Registry

This package configures the service registry which will be used to look up for example the service addresses.

Available registries are:

  • nats-js-kv (default)

  • memory

To configure which registry to use, you have to set the environment variable MICRO_REGISTRY, and for all except memory you also have to set the registry address via MICRO_REGISTRY_ADDRESS and other envvars.

These envvars define the startup of ocis and can for example add or remove services from the startup process such as OCIS_ADD_RUN_SERVICES.

Memory Limits

Note that this envvar is for development purposes only and not described in the admin docs.

oCIS will automatically set the go native GOMEMLIMIT to 0.9. To disable the limit set AUTOMEMLIMIT=off. For more information take a look at the official Guide to the Go Garbage Collector.
