User certificates with passwords in scripts

Add a line after # output_password = secret:

# output_password = secret
output_password = $ENV::KEY_PASS

After that the openssl calls taking the needed password from the environment variable KEY_PASS.

You can call it like this for example:

KEY_PASS="password" ./build-key-pass --batch user

This is useful for batch generation of many client certificates.
