+- `OBSIDIAN_API_KEY` (required): Your Local REST API plugin API key
+- `OBSIDIAN_HTTP_PORT` (optional): Custom HTTP port (default: 27123)
+- `OBSIDIAN_HTTPS_PORT` (optional): Custom HTTPS port (default: 27124)
+- `OBSIDIAN_HOST` (optional): Custom host address (default: 127.0.0.1)
+- `OBSIDIAN_USE_HTTP` (optional): Use HTTP instead of HTTPS (default: false)
