support for passing a custom password

[dkezri]

is there any way to pass a custom password for elastic instead of running elastic_reset_password?

Currently at the moment the elastic-reset-password tool will handle making the system user password at start up, you cannot pass a username/password into the main system user for Elasticsearch.

Once the elastic user password has been changed you can make multiple other users after its booted.

Alternatively See: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/change-passwords-native-users.html

Thank you @txj-xyz , i tested it by adding the following commands in entrypoint.sh line 137 and it worked fine to create another custom user:

  if [[ -n "${CUSTOM_USER}" ]] && [[ -n "${CUSTOM_PASS}"  ]]; then
            elasticsearch-${EK_VERSION}/bin/elasticsearch-users useradd $CUSTOM_USER -p $CUSTOM_PASS -r superuser
  fi
