Allow populating admin password from environment variable

[bdalpe]

Allows for storing in Vault, etc. instead of Helm values

@bdalpe -- Do we have anyother ways to pass securely the adminPassword, token and even license?
(looks like this is still in development?)

[bdalpe]

You are not required to populate those values to start the leader chart. You can set them after startup. They will be stored in config files on the PVC.

Long-term, we are looking to address this issue with a revision to the chart.

[Kavinraja-G]

Yeah that is doable but it defeats the purpose of automation and it will include manual intervention in my case (an user should login to the console and setup the configuration).

But I'm leaning towards the use of Envs to pass the credentials/licenses from source referencing to K8s secret/Vault.

@bdalpe why is this blocked ?

@punkrokk As of January, my internal request had not been implemented. I will look to do this with an initContainer in the future.
