----------------------------------

             Summary: There should be an EnvironmentConfigProvider that will do variable substitution using environment variable.
                 Key: KAFKA-10639
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10639
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: config
    Affects Versions: 2.5.1
            Reporter: Brad Davis


Running Kafka Connect in the same docker container in multiple stages (like dev vs production) means that a file based approach to secret hiding using the file config provider isn't viable.  However, docker container instances can have their environment variables customized on a per-container basis, and our existing tech stack typically exposes per-stage secrets (like the dev DB password vs the prod DB password) through env vars within the containers.
