Description
One of the great things about e.g. the official postgres image is that you can specify a POSTGRES_DB environment variable, and it will automatically create a database with that name. This saves you from having to have some kind of db setup script to create the database, user, etc.
It would be awesome if the kinesalite image had similar functionality. If I specify a KINESIS_STREAM or something like that, it could create that stream when initialising the container, and then I can just use it right away.

Research direction
Start by locating the Dockerfile and the kinesalite container's initialization or entrypoint configuration. Determine where an environment variable such as KINESIS_STREAM could be handled during startup, then verify that a container configured with it creates the requested stream and remains usable immediately afterward.
