The packages read configuration from either environment variables or a YAML file referenced in launch parameters. Use whichever is easier for your deployment and keep sensitive data (wallet passwords, managed IPFS JWTs) outside of version control.

​
Environment Variables

All nodes (core_node, storage_bridge_node, events_node) consume these variables through the shared configuration module. When unset, defaults come from the YAML configuration or each node’s internal defaults.

​
YAML Configuration

Create a copy of the example file and fill in required fields:
Example snippet:
Launch files pass this YAML through config.yaml_path parameters so that every node reads a single source of truth. Set auto_generate: true during testing to create a wallet automatically; switch to a managed keystore in production.

​
Secret Management

  • Keep PEAQ_ROBOT_KEY_PASSWORD in an .env file or secret manager and source it before launching nodes.
  • Do not commit the populated peaq_robot.yaml to version control—copy it per environment instead.
  • Rotate managed gateway credentials regularly and store them in the same secure channel as other secrets.
Proceed to launch the core services once configuration is in place.
