#### Containers: using files/secrets to set configuration variables
When running the user manager as a container you can append `_FILE` to any of the configuration variables and set the value to a filepath. Then when the container starts up it will set the appropriate configuration variable with the contents of the file.
For example, if you're using Docker Swarm and you've set the LDAP bind password as a Docker secret (`echo "myLDAPadminPassword" | docker secret create ldap_admin_bind_pwd -`) then you can set `LDAP_ADMIN_BIND_PWD_FILE=/run/secrets/ldap_admin_bind_pwd`. This will result in `LDAP_ADMIN_BIND_PWD` being set with the contents of `/run/secrets/ldap_admin_bind_pwd`.
