I think the Jira created by Stian pretty much fixes the problem. Nope?
Something like:
./add-user-keycloak.sh -u user
Password: ******
Or
./add-user-keycloak-sh
Username: joe
Password: ******
If this can't fix the issue, is also possible to disable bash_history
temporarily. But I wouldn't take this route, because this is pretty much
system administration responsibility.

That's a mistake we'll fix that. If not specified it should prompt for it.

After attending several security talks the last couple of days, I've
become rather sensitized to this kind of issue. I feel quite strongly that
we should never allow the password to be written to history in plain
text. I'm also afraid it could cause us to flunk government
certifications.
On Windows, this really isn't a problem because command history is not
saved. After a CMD session ends, the history is lost (unless you install
some third-party tool).
Perhaps there is a way to temporarily disable logging of command history
in the add-user-keycloak.sh?

You need to set the password once for your database. This can be done
prior to accessing the admin console the first time. Take a look at
https://github.com/jboss-dockerfiles/keycloak/blob/master/server/README.md,
you can use docker exec to do this.
