-All environment variables are optional. You probably want to at least specify

-
-* **`SERVER_NAMES`**: Comma-separated list of domains (eg,
- `example.com,www.example.com`). The first is set as the
- [ServerName](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#servername),
- and the rest (if any) are set as
- [ServerAlias](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#serveralias).
- The default is `localhost`.
-* **`LOCATION`**: The URL path for WebDAV (eg, if set to `/webdav` then clients
- should connect to `example.com/webdav`). The default is `/`.
-* **`AUTH_TYPE`**: Apache authentication type to use. This can be `Basic` (best
- choice for HTTPS) or `Digest` (best choice for HTTP). The default is `Basic`.
-* **`REALM`**: Sets
- [AuthName](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_authn_core.html#authname),
- an identifier that is displayed to clients when they connect. The default is
- `WebDAV`.
-* **`USERNAME`**: Authenticate with this username (and the password below).
- This is ignored if you bind mount your own authentication file to
- `/user.passwd`.
-* **`PASSWORD`**: Authenticate with this password (and the username above).
- This is ignored if you bind mount your own authentication file to
- `/user.passwd`.
-* **`ANONYMOUS_METHODS`**: Comma-separated list of HTTP request methods (eg,
- `GET,POST,OPTIONS,PROPFIND`). Clients can use any method you specify here
- without authentication. Set to `ALL` to disable authentication. The default
- is to disallow any anonymous access.
-* **`SSL_CERT`**: Set to `selfsigned` to generate a self-signed certificate and
- enable Apache's SSL module. If you specify `SERVER_NAMES`, the first domain
- is set as the Common Name.
