for example:

install_datadog_agent = command.remote.Command(
    "install_datadog_agent",
    connection=connection,
    environment={
        "DD_AGENT_MAJOR_VERSION": "7",
        "DD_SITE": "<http://datadoghq.com|datadoghq.com>",
    },
    create='echo "the version is ${DD_AGENT_MAJOR_VERSION}"',
    update='echo "the version is: ${DD_AGENT_MAJOR_VERSION}"',
    opts=pulumi.ResourceOptions(depends_on=[server]),
)

outputs

Outputs:
  ~ catConfigStdout: 
      - the version is 
      + the version is:

Instead of the DD_AGENT_MAJOR_VERSION

That all looks correct. Does the environment work if you use the local command?

command.local.Command

?

IIRC the environment variables are passed as SSH environment variables, so your remote host must be configured with

AcceptEnv

for those environment variables. Is that correct?

They would be passed as SSH environment variables yes

Ubuntu by default accepts only:

AcceptEnv LANG LC_*

. Anything else would have to be configured in

/etc/sshd_config

.

Cool, thanks y’all!

I'll raise an issue to update our docs with this, it's a useful note to point out.
