args property

Specifies arguments for the command that runs when the container starts.

This overrides the container's [CMD](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#cmd). Specify this field as an array of executable and arguments, similar to a Docker CMD's "default parameters" form. If you don't specify this field but do specify the command field, then the command from the command field runs without any additional arguments. See the [Kubernetes documentation about how the command and args fields interact with a container's ENTRYPOINT and CMD](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/inject-data-application/define-command-argument-container/#notes). If you don't specify this field and don't specify the commmand field, then the container's [ENTRYPOINT](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#cmd) and CMD determine what runs based on their default behavior. See the [Docker documentation about how CMD and ENTRYPOINT interact](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#understand-how-cmd-and-entrypoint-interact). In this field, you can reference [environment variables set by AI Platform Prediction](/ai-platform/prediction/docs/custom-container-requirements#aip-variables) and environment variables set in the env field. You cannot reference environment variables set in the Docker image. In order for environment variables to be expanded, reference them by using the following syntax: $( VARIABLE_NAME) Note that this differs from Bash variable expansion, which does not use parentheses. If a variable cannot be resolved, the reference in the input string is used unchanged. To avoid variable expansion, you can escape this syntax with $$; for example: $$(VARIABLE_NAME) This field corresponds to the args field of the Kubernetes Containers v1 core API.
