I suggest adding a command-line option to influx setup that allows the user to specify the destination path for this file, so that it can be more easily integrated with existing container volume mounts.

This isn't just about Docker; in a traditional install, configuration files for a service should absolutely not be living in /home. I was able to move data files to /var/lib/ but I'm unable to start the server as a system user without a home directory. Looking forward to this feature being added so we can try 2.0 again.

introduces the new flag --configs-path to the influx CLI. This new
flag has a corresponding env var INFLUX_CONFIGS_PATH. It is useful
to export this env var in a shell dotfile for consumption throughout the
box.
