<p dir="auto">Docker supports a way to push environment variables to the containers using env files. I see that there is a way to push env-variables via the pod creation JSON but I don't see anyway to push env-files for the same. Is there any other way to do this?</p>

<p dir="auto">One of the critical features we're lacking on the configuration front is template parameterization. We should decide on what approach we want to take.</p>
<p dir="auto">Working list of requirements:</p>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>It should be schema-respecting, not arbitrary textual transformation, in order to facilitate schema validation and independent substitution/decoration passes.</li>
<li>Input parameters should be clearly declared, such as to facilitate form generation, as discussed in <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="56786189" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/4210" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/4210/hovercard" href="https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/4210">#4210</a> and <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="66715189" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/6487" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/6487/hovercard" href="https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/6487">#6487</a>.</li>
<li>Substitution should be independent of reconciliation, as per <a class="user-mention notranslate" data-hovercard-type="user" data-hovercard-url="/users/ghodss/hovercard" data-octo-click="hovercard-link-click" data-octo-dimensions="link_type:self" href="https://github.com/ghodss">@ghodss</a>'s comment.</li>
