Adding Global Password to Jenkins with init.groovy

How can I add a global passwords to Jenkins through the init.groovy that runs at startup?

To be clear, in the Manage Jenkins -> Configure Jenkins page, there is a section titled "Global Passwords". I would like to add entries in that section via Groovy code during the startup of Jenkins.

I am trying to provision my jenkins environment through groovy code by using the init.groovy. I need to add global passwords through the EnvInject plugin. I can successfully add path to a file for the same plugin using this code:

def instance = Jenkins.getInstance()


DescribableList<NodeProperty<?>, NodePropertyDescriptor> globalNodeProperties = 
    instance.getGlobalNodeProperties();

globalNodeProperties.add(
    new EnvInjectNodeProperty(false, "/var/lib/jenkins/secret.properties")
);

However, I am failing to understand the mechanics needed to programmatically add global passwords.

Here is the code example that should work. It seems that save() method also adds it to GlobalNodeProperties, so you don't have to add to that collection manually. 

import jenkins.model.*
import hudson.util.*
import hudson.slaves.NodeProperty
import hudson.slaves.NodePropertyDescriptor
import org.jenkinsci.plugins.envinject.*


def instance = Jenkins.getInstance()


DescribableList<NodeProperty<?>, NodePropertyDescriptor> globalNodeProperties 
                 = instance.getGlobalNodeProperties();

envInjectNodeProperty= new EnvInjectNodeProperty(false, "/var/lib/jenkins/secret.properties" 
propDescriptor = envInjectNodeProperty.getDescriptor()

//password entry
def passEntry = new EnvInjectGlobalPasswordEntry("some_username", "password")
//password entries list, add you global password here
List<EnvInjectGlobalPasswordEntry> envInjectGlobalPasswordEntriesList= [passEntry];
propDescriptor.envInjectGlobalPasswordEntries = 
          envInjectGlobalPasswordEntriesList.toArray(
          new EnvInjectGlobalPasswordEntry[envInjectGlobalPasswordEntriesList.size()]
         );
propDescriptor.save();

I did not try this plugin, but there is a class : EnvInjectGlobalPasswordEntry

i guess it could be like this:

globalNodeProperties.add(
    new EnvInjectGlobalPasswordEntry("pass-name", "the-password")
);
