Supported Docker versions: the latest release (down to 1.6 on a best-effort basis)
The package contains mkpasswd, a features-rich front end to the password encryption function crypt(3).
mkpasswd generates passwords and can apply them automatically to users. This tool is useful for Ansible playbooks in scenarios where you want to put a password (for a database) into the playbook but don't want it in the clear.
Command line help is provided:
docker run --name mkpasswd --rm tooldockers/mkpasswd:latest -hTo generate a SHA-512 encrypted password:
docker run --name mkpasswd --rm tooldockers/mkpasswd:latest -m SHA-512 [PASSWORD [SALT]]View license information for the software contained in this image.
