GA4GH Service-Info Configuration

The service-info API endpoint values can be defined via an external YAML file referenced through an environment variable. If this variable is not set, AnyVar falls back to its built-in defaults.

It is strongly recommended to provide explicit service-info metadata in production environments.

Environment Variable	Default Value
ANYVAR_SERVICE_INFO	n/a

Example service-info YAML file
