Never used Catalina, but if you peruse the config files used by the server, you may find out that the environment variables are fed to the VM via -D<env_var>=<value>. It's not hard to do in a shell script; it's just a matter of looping over the variabels returned by the "set" command, and construct a corresponding string with -D options.
