Secrets can't be loaded

[lordraiden]

I'm using Unraid as base distro

Below you can find my compose file and the env.
With traefik I'm using as well a traefik.yml which is not relevant, and everthing works fine if I remove the secrets and add the in the env file

This is my compose

secrets are stored here

I have give read and write permissions just in case but still I can't get the secrets to be loaded. When I launch the compose I get an error in the traeffic log that the api token is not good.

I have been trying to fix this for too may hours but still can figure out how to fix it.

ups Ok, I have discovered that I have to add _FILE at the end of the variables.

So, using secrets from file is something that require for every container specific variables?
Secrets from file won't be supported by any container by default unless the developer add this feature specifically
