$ cue help environment
The cue command consults environment variables for configuration.
If an environment variable is unset or empty, sensible default setting is used.
CUE_CACHE_DIR
A directory structure to hold files which are reused between operations.
It defaults to a directory for user-specific temporary data, such as:
- "$XDG_CACHE_HOME/cue" or "$HOME/.cache/cue" on Linux
- "$HOME/Library/Caches/cue" on MacOS
- "%LocalAppData%/cue" on Windows
Its contents are generally read-only and include:
- mod/download for modules fetched from registries
- mod/extract for extracted module archives
CUE_CONFIG_DIR
A directory to hold configuration and long-lived state files.
It defaults to a directory for user-specific persistent data, such as:
- "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/cue" or "$HOME/.config/cue" on Linux
- "$HOME/Library/Application Support/cue" on MacOS
- "%AppData%/cue" on Windows
CUE_REGISTRY
The configuration to use when downloading and publishing modules.
See "cue help registryconfig" for details.
CUE_EXPERIMENT
Comma-separated list of experiment flags to enable or disable:
evalv3
Enable the new CUE evaluator, addressing performance issues
and bringing a better disjunction algorithm.
embed
Enable support for embedded data files as described in
https://cuelang.org/discussion/3264.
decodeint64 (default true)
Tweak cue.Value.Decode to choose "int64" rather than "int"
as the default Go type for CUE integer values.
toposort
Enable topological sorting of struct fields.
Provide feedback via https://cuelang.org/issue/3558
CUE_DEBUG
Comma-separated list of debug flags to enable or disable, such as:
http
Log a JSON message per HTTP request and response made
when interacting with module registries.
sortfields
Force fields in stucts to be sorted lexicographically.
openinline (default true)
Permit disallowed fields to be selected into literal struct
that would normally result in a close error, mimicking evalv2
closedness behavior in evalv3 to aid the transition.
CUE_EXPERIMENT and CUE_DEBUG are comma-separated lists of key-value strings,
where the value is a boolean "true" or "1" if omitted. For example:
CUE_EXPERIMENT=toenable,todisable=0
