connection settings in docker container are not working

[flashpixx]

I'm using in my docker-compose th following configuration for admin mongo:

  adminmongo:
    image: mrvautin/adminmongo:latest
    restart: always
    depends_on:
      - mongodb
    ports:
      - ${EXPOSE_PORT_MONGOADMIN:-1234}:1234
    environment:
      - HOST=adminmongo
      - CONN_NAME=mydb
      - DB_HOST=mongodb
      - DB_USERNAME=root
      - DB_PASSWORD=root

  mongodb:
    restart: always
    image: mongo:latest
    ports:
      - ${EXPOSE_PORT_GRAPHEXPLORER:-27017}:27017
    environment:
      - MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=root
      - MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=root
      - MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE=mydb
    volumes:
      - ./mongodb/00-schema.js:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/00-schema.js

in general connection to the MongoDB database instance are quite working, but I need to setup the connection settings manually on the UI, so the environment variables on the container are not working

Same issue here, env var are not working for auto connection

EDIT: found a solution, see #166
