Hello Jurijs,
Thank you for the link, Docker secrets is definitely something that would be an option,
and yes, holding anything in a variable or somewhere it can be easily queried isn’t going
to work.
We’ll see what happens.
Cheers - Robert...

Hi,
Not sure that this helps, but below is how I solved similar issue by generating include
file inside Docker file using env variables, but this is not a good approach for sensitive
data.
echo "\
<>modparam(\"http_client\", \"httpcon\",
\"apiserver=>https://$apiurl\"); \
<>" >> /kamailio.apiurl
I believe you can use docker secrets, as described below, but I never used them so I
can't help much:

My
requirement is simple, I need to be able to supply a password via means such as loading a
variable from a run-once script at start up, or a module. The ideal would be to be able to
read in a Docker secret :)
you can define a for a token to be used inside kamailio.cfg by using -A
command line parameter. So when you start kamailio, fetch the password
from your secure system by what so ever meaning, then build the database
url based on it and run kamailio with:
kamailio - A DBURL='mysql://user:passwd@dbhost/kamailio' ...
My guess is the next problem will be the password being visible to all
users querying the processlist :)
Is including a file (import_file) with passwords an option? Generate the
file just before startup, remove it (ofcourse in a secure way (shred the
file and overwrite all freespace with a multiple patters a few dozen
times (ask the auditors for the exact specifications that make them
happy))) after kamailio is running.
