Docker compose won't find $PWD environment variable

Question

Here\'s my docker-compose:

version: \'2\'
services:
  couchpotato:
    build:
        context: ./couchpotato
        dockerfile: Dockerfile
    ports:
     -         


        

Answer 1

I had the same issue with one of my env vars. On looking at my bashrc file more closely, I found out that I hadn't exported that variable.
Before:
VAR=
After:
export VAR=
