Abstract
One example system includes an export engine to generate an installation atomic for a source program based on a source environment. The installation atomic can include an environment agnostic configuration file, an environment properties data structure, and compiled binary artifacts created based on the server program. The environment-agnostic configuration file includes representations of a set of environment dependent attributes from the set of configuration information, each representation for an environment dependent attribute including at least one token that replaces a value of the attribute in the representation, and representations of members of a set of environment independent attributes from the set of configuration information that are equivalent between the source environment and target environments. The environment properties data structure has, for each of a plurality of target environments, a value that corresponds to the at least one token.
