Passing CLI args to start command

I'm currently trying to create a template, and I want to pass env vars as arguments to the start command. Is there a way to do this? From my initial research, it seems not since custom start commands are run using exec mode, but I might be overlooking something.

you are correct, they are running in exec mode when using an image or Dockerfile, the solution is to wrap the command in a shell that contains exec again -

/bin/sh -c "exec server -h 0.0.0.0 -p $PORT"

this string will be interpolated and then exec will replace the original shell and run the command with the now interpolated variables
