How to use/access docker environment variables in Shibboleth xml files?

Question

I am trying to inject my docker environment variables into my shibboleth2.xml file. Shibboleth does not recognize my environment variables at all.

For example

 <ApplicationDefaults entityID="${MY_ENV_VARIABLE}">

I am wondering if there is a way to make Shibboleth access these values?

Thank you.

Envsubst can be used for replacing environment variables in a file.

envsubst < input.file > output.file
