How to change the default LiveView (VNC) password "secret" in selenium grid

[hager-yousri]

What happened?

I use Robot Framework and I integrate with selenium grid to run the tests and see live video for the run

When I open the session to see the run live it asks me about password which is by default "secret"

I need to change this password so how can I do this please?

Command used to start Selenium Grid with Docker

I added this yaml file in my robot framework project

version: "3"
services:
HubService:
image: selenium/hub:latest
container_name: seleniumHub
ports:
- "4445:4444"

ChromeService:
image: selenium/node-chrome:latest
shm_size: "2gb"
ports:
- "5900"
- "7900"
environment:
- SE_EVENT_BUS_HOST=seleniumHub
- SE_EVENT_BUS_PUBLISH_PORT=4442
- SE_EVENT_BUS_SUBSCRIBE_PORT=4443
#- SE_NODE_MAX_SESSIONS=3
depends_on:
- HubService

Then I start the docker 
docker compose -f seleniumGrid.yml up -d

Then I run the tests and open this url to watch the run live
http://localhost:4445/wd/hub

Relevant log output

I see in this documentation https://github.com/seleniumhq/docker-selenium/#debugging

that if we need to change "secret password" we need to follow this
" If you get a prompt asking for a password, it is: secret. If you wish to change this, you should either change it in the /NodeBase/Dockerfile and build the images yourself, or you can define a Docker image that derives from the posted ones which reconfigures it:"

#FROM selenium/node-chrome:4.7.2-20221219
#FROM selenium/node-edge:4.7.2-20221219
#FROM selenium/node-firefox:4.7.2-20221219
#Choose the FROM statement that works for you.

RUN x11vnc -storepasswd <your-password-here> /home/seluser/.vnc/passwd

but it is not clear for me at all how can I apply one of these solutions so could you please add detailed steps what should i do in my case to change the password?

Just pushed a change to the README to make it more clear.

Would it be possible to set it using an environment variable? Customizing images by rebuilding them is a bit of a hassle, especially when upgrading.

Can you please open a feature request? Maybe someone will have time to research how to do it.
