How to use environment variables in init container args in kubernetes/openshift?
2
This is an excerpt of my deployment config:
...
spec:
containers:
- env:
- name: GIT_USERNAME
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
key: username
name: git
- name: GIT_PASSWORD
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
key: password
name: git
initContainers:
- args:
- clone
- '--single-branch'
- '--'
- 'https://$(GIT_USERNAME):$(GIT_PASSWORD)@someurl.com/something.git'
- '/testing/'
image: alpine/git
imagePullPolicy: Always
name: init-clone-repo
resources: {}
terminationMessagePath: /dev/termination-log
terminationMessagePolicy: File
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /testing
name: test-volume
volumes:
- emptyDir: {}
name: test-volume
...
The initContainer fails, because $(GIT_USERNAME) and $(GIT_PASSWORD) are used as is and not expanded. I have tried $GIT_USERNAME, ${GIT_USERNAME} and I am pretty much out of ideas.
How do I correctly use environment variables in args for init containers?
