pass arguments to tmuxinator project file

Question

I have a project file like

windows:
  - server:
      layout: even-vertical
      panes:
        - ssh -t {pass value in here} tail -f -n 100 /var/log/app.log
        - 

I would like to pass the SSH host in as I start the session. Something like

mux project for.bar

Can this be done

Checkout this section Tmuxinator's readme.

You can also pass arguments to your projects, and access them with ERB. Simple arguments are available in an array named @args.

Eg:

$ tmuxinator start project foo

~/.tmuxinator/project.yml

name: project root: ~/<%= @args[0] %>

... You can also pass key-value pairs using the format key=value. These will be available in a hash named @settings.

Eg:

$ tmuxinator start project workspace=~/workspace/todo

~/.tmuxinator/project.yml

name: project root: ~/<%= @settings["workspace"] %>

...
