STEAMPIPE_DATABASE_SSL_PASSWORD

Sets the server.key passphrase. By default, Steampipe generates a certificate without a passphrase; you only need to set this variable if you use a custom certificate that is protected by a passphrase.

To use a custom certificate with a passphrase:

  • STEAMPIPE_DATABASE_SSL_PASSWORD must be set when you start Steampipe.
  • The server.key content must contain Proc-Type and DEK-Info headers.

Usage

Start the Steampipe service with a custom password:

export STEAMPIPE_DATABASE_SSL_PASSWORD=MyPassPhrase
steampipe service start
