How to make odoo read admin_passwd from file?

Question

I would like to to make Odoo read the admin_passwd form a file existing on the file system.

My use case is this:
I am running an odoo:10.0 container instance on a Docker swarm-mode cluster and would like to share the necessary credentials using docker secrets .
For instance, admin_passwd would be found at /run/secrets/admin_passwd ... etc.

Is this type of configuration supported in Odoo?
If not, please put some spot lights on what may help me extend Odoo and develop such a module.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

In odoo passwords are stored in pbkdf2 crypto format for security reasons. They are stored in res_users table, if you need to query directly.

You can not reverse it easily. ;)
