That explains it, very good to know.
That seems to be the only option from the looks of it. As I’m deploying from a compose file, and the telegraf configuration is parsed when the container runs, I need to figure out a way to make this dynamic so that the environment variable matches each host it runs on. It would be great to have the ability to provide a file, as opposed to a value, similar to how it works when using Docker Secrets.
At this point I think it’s clear that the issue is no longer related to telegraf, and more so with Docker. I’ll come back and update this thread if I manage to figure something out.
Thanks the help!
