The `config` plugin provides the following commands to manage your variables:
```
config (<app>|--global) Display all global or app-specific config vars
config:get (<app>|--global) KEY Display a global or app-specific config value
config:set (<app>|--global) KEY1=VALUE1 [KEY2=VALUE2 ...] Set one or more config vars
config:unset (<app>|--global) KEY1 [KEY2 ...] Unset one or more config vars
config (<app>|--global) Display all global or app-specific config vars
config:get (<app>|--global) KEY Display a global or app-specific config value
config:set (<app>|--global) KEY1=VALUE1 [KEY2=VALUE2 ...] Set one or more config vars
config:unset (<app>|--global) KEY1 [KEY2 ...] Unset one or more config vars
config:export [--format=FORMAT] [--merged] (<app>|--global) Export all global or app-specific configuration
```
The variables are available both at run time and during the application build/compilation step for buildpack-based deploys. For security reasons - and as per [docker recommendations](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/13490) - Dockerfile-based deploys have variables available *only* during runtime, as noted in [this issue](https://github.com/dokku/dokku/issues/1860).
