Hi users@,

#########
# Context #
#########
With the following webserver_config.py code, when I provide the environment 
variables $USERNAME and $PASSWORD, from the WebUI I can authenticate and login 
to Airflow just fine.

import os
from flask_appbuilder.security.manager import AUTH_LDAP

basedir = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
username = os.environ['USERNAME']
password = os.environ['PASSWORD']

# Flask-WTF flag for CSRF
WTF_CSRF_ENABLED = True
AUTH_TYPE = AUTH_LDAP
AUTH_ROLE_ADMIN = "Admin"
AUTH_USER_REGISTRATION = True
AUTH_USER_REGISTRATION_ROLE = "Admin"
AUTH_LDAP_SERVER = "ldaps://ldap....:636"
AUTH_LDAP_SEARCH = "ou=personnel,dc=dir,dc=a,dc=b,dc=c"
AUTH_LDAP_BIND_USER = 
"uid={},ou=personnel,dc=dir,dc=a,dc=b,dc=c".format(username)
AUTH_LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD = password
AUTH_LDAP_UID_FIELD = "uid"
AUTH_LDAP_USE_TLS = False
AUTH_LDAP_ALLOW_SELF_SIGNED = False

This is not appropriate if I want all of my other colleagues to login to the 
Airflow WebUI via LDAP.

# Question #
##########

How do I use the username and password (submitted by the user into the WebUI 
form) as a variable within the webserver_config.py?

I will provide a pull request for this as the documentation is lacking. I would 
like to make it clearer.
Thank you in advance for any knowledge sharing.

Thanks in advance,
