Hi, I am using the docker version of GeoServer. We would like to set a number of properties through the environment variables within a docker compose (and later on with Kubernetes). It seems that though there is some parameter substitution in place, it can only be used with file based properties eg in geoserver-environment.properties? (https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/datadirectory/configtemplate.html#datadir-configtemplate)
At the moment I’m creating that file as part of the entrtypoint in the docker: ENTRYPOINT env > /opt/geoserver_data/geoserver-environment.properties && /opt/startup.sh But it would be better if the environment variables could be used directly… Am I missing something, is there a reason that this is not possible or is it some feature that is still missing? One thing was missing from these properties: setting the admin password. The docs mentioned that this was possible https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/security/passwd.html#parametrized-passwords <https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/security/passwd.html#parametrized-passwords> , but I didn’t notice that I was browsing the latest docs and that this is not yet released. Perhaps adding a ‘since release xx’ or something alike at the section head would have been more clear. Kind Regards, Jan
