Configuration – contain environment variables in the UWSGI INI file?

chdir = $(HOME)/foobar

I am using .ini files (According to uWSGI docs). Using environment variables is a good practice, but I cannot make the $environment name syntax work.

Can I use special syntax to access them?

The syntax is $(var), for example:

chdir = $(HOME) /foobar
