    I don't know about others but I'm not a fan of monstrosity like this

    If I stuff it into a wrapper script, I'm essentially trying to emulate config files, which is what should've been used in the first place. This is why I prefer using config files rather than creating uglier and harder to maintain wrapper scripts.

    I guess if you don't want state associated with your deployments, environment variables are better but I would still argue that they aren't manageable when their values become large as shown above or if their numbers start approaching double digits because when that happens, you're essentially emulating config files anyways.
