Deployment Environment

In addition to the environment variables Kudu provide for every command (e.g. in Debug Console and /api/command), Kudu provides several additional environment variables to the deployment script.

• DEPLOYMENT_SOURCE is the repository directory (e.g. site\repository).
• DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is the runtime location of the website (e.g. site\wwwroot).
• POST_DEPLOYMENT_ACTION and POST_DEPLOYMENT_ACTIONS_DIR are the command and directory to run post deployment.
• SCM_COMMIT_ID provides the deployment ID. In the case of Git deployment it is the commit ID.
• DEPLOYMENT_TEMP is the directory for storing temporary files during deployment.
• KUDU_SELECT_NODE_VERSION_CMD command to run selectNodeVersion.js, which handles the deployment time node/npm version, and generates web.config and iisnode.yml if needed.
• WEBJOBS_DEPLOY_CMD is the command to deploy web jobs.
