In fact it’s a « normal » behavior. You asked for a compiled env. but `application/0` sounds like to be available only in runtime.

So it doesn’t compile because you want a compiled env var that is not available.

However I don’t know if it’s a normal that the ˋapplication/0` is not available in compile time.

Share the issue please, I would like to follow that 😉

For the moment add your env in config file it should work.
