Passing authorization details from env vars?

holms opened this issue 6 years ago · comments

Currently it's only reading auth details from htpasswd file? It's against 12factorapp and it doesn't scale, I need to build own container with htpasswd, instead of using your container (which actually absent on docker hub). That's not good :) I'm expecting to pass auth parameters via cli, or with env vars.

Might submit PR.

This is because the intention is for the users list to be dynamic data, not configuration. Ideally there should be a way to add/remove users at runtime with a web interface or CLI.

I've actually ended up using docker secrets under docker swarm, which actually requires to have password in file (strange standard). Might be useful for someone.
