Operation

The forge variables unset command allows the developer to remove (unset) an app-specific environment variable from a specific environment (for example, development or staging). When you run forge variables unset command without an environment option (--environment or -e), the command unsets the variables in your default environment. Your default environment is set the first time you run an environment-specific command.

Examples

1
2
forge variables unset EXT_SERVICE_PORT

This command removes the Forge environment variable EXT_SERVICE_PORT and its value from your app's default environment.

2
forge variables unset -e production EXT_SERVICE_PORT

This command removes the Forge environment variable EXT_SERVICE_PORT and its value from your app's production environment.

Troubleshooting

If you don't see environment variables that you're certain you've set, check the variables for other environments. Forge uses your default environment if you don't specify one, so variables meant for another environment might have been unintentionally applied there.
