Can't read config from env

[Dudoleitor]

Hi, I was recently cleaning up my crowdsec configs and I noticed an unexpected behaviour. I'm running the bouncer inside kubernetes using the image crowdsecurity/cloudflare-bouncer:latest and I can't read a configuration parameter from an environment variable. In the file /etc/crowdsec/bouncers/crowdsec-cloudflare-bouncer.yaml I set config_lapi_key to ${API_KEY} and I flled the env API_KEY with the proper value, but the container crashes immediately with an authentication error in the logs.

I tried setting config_lapi_url to ${API_URL} and this is what the log outputs

time="03-07-2023 15:30:31" level=info msg="Starting crowdsec-cloudflare-bouncer v0.2.1-6b30687c25027607083926cb2112dd06e04dae59"
time="03-07-2023 15:30:31" level=info msg="Using API key auth"
time="03-07-2023 15:30:31" level=error msg="BaseURL must have a trailing slash, but \"$%!B(MISSING)API_URL%!D(MISSING)\" does not"
time="03-07-2023 15:30:31" level=fatal msg="LAPI can't be reached"
time="03-07-2023 15:30:31" level=fatal msg="LAPI can't be reached"

I tried to exec into the container and with echo I see that the environment variable is correctly set. By manually entering configurations in the file everything works.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Can I be of more help to troubleshoot this issue?

The reason it doesn't work because we haven't done a release since the feature was introduced. So to use this you would have to build the image from source within the repository or wait til we do a release which is overdue anyways.

Update: I didn't realise there is a RC so you can update your image to use crowdsecurity/cloudflare-bouncer:v0.3.0-rc1 as the version to get configuration merge

Understood, thanks for the quick response
