[jira] [Commented] (BEAM-8613) Add environment variable support to Docker environment

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-8613?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16989247#comment-16989247 ] 

Robert Bradshaw commented on BEAM-8613:
---------------------------------------

What kind of environment variables are you trying to pass here? Is there not another way to pass this data to the operations being performed in this container? I'm worried about building too much into these (unstructured) string fields and having to support this long term once we finally clean up our environment specs.

> The Process environment allows specifying environment variables via a map field on its payload message. The Docker environment should support this same pattern, and forward the contents of the map through to the container runtime.
