Automatically create initial admin user

[Jochen Wiedmann]

Hi,

I am trying to set up a docker image, which should be ready to use. In particular, I wouldn't want the image user to read the contents of the initial_admin_password file from the Docker log or from the running container. Instead, I would want something like "Read the initial admin details from a file, which I specify be setting an environment variable." Or, whatever works.

How would you do that?

Thanks,

Jochen

We have some code that enables security and sets the admin user with credentials admin/hunter2 based on it an ENABLE_SECURITY environment variable is set. 

Look for Jenkins init groovy samples to configure the admin password , you should be able to accomplish what you want with a little bit of tweaking.  

Hope something like this helps:

you can use Jenkins Configuration as Code plugin (https://github.com/jenkinsci/configuration-as-code-plugin) to configure your security see the Matrix Authentication example  at https://github.com/jenkinsci/configuration-as-code-plugin/tree/master/demos/matrix-auth
