Hi all,

Am I being too picky here or just being naive in the ways I approach my 
works with Docker?  There are times when I build a Docker image and then 
when I run the container with some environment variables then my 
start/entry point scripts still have to replace some config files some 
where with the environment variables' values.  The most common practice for 
this type of situation is to use sed or some sort of shell capabilities to 
take care these.  Honestly I hate going this way.

I wish I could just use Ansible for this type of situation but adding 
Ansible and dependencies to the container image increases the size and it 
is not ideal to have full Ansible functionalities in the container.  So is 
it possible to create a core Ansible package aiming for the container 
situation that includes some of the base modules or at least just the base 
modules?  Or do we have ways to assemble Ansible  based on what the users 
might need to reduce size in the container?
 
Or just forget about it and add Ansible and its dependencies and call it a 
day....

Please point me to some documents or information if what I just asked have 
been written about.

Thank you so much.
