Is there a way to add variables to Kafka server.properties?

I don't have any experience with Kafka yet and need to automate a task. Is there a way that I can use env variables in the configuration file? To be more specific:

advertised.listeners=INSIDE://:9092,OUTSIDE://<hostname>:29092

I'd like to extract and use the hostname from my env variables.

Property files offer no variable interpolation

If you started Kafka via Docker processes, or write your own shell scripts which generate a property file prior to starting the broker, then you could inject values

Some examples include confd, consul-template, dockerize
