HQD-355: Stop duplicating the RabbitMQ broker password into every EPP worker's config - #64
Conversation
Every heppy config bundles two unrelated things in one JSON file: the EPP registry login and the RabbitMQ broker credentials. In Kubernetes that whole file becomes one Secret, so the broker password ends up duplicated into every worker's config at seal time - and there was no way to change the broker's password without resealing every worker to match, which is exactly what caused ahnames-epp-rabbitmq to drift out of sync with several workers' baked-in RabbitMQ.password on ahnames/gitops's beta. connection_parameters() now checks RABBITMQ_USERNAME/PASSWORD first, falling back to the config file's RabbitMQ.username/password unchanged when unset. A deployment can inject these from the same secret the broker itself reads, so the two can never drift again - no resealing needed when the broker password rotates.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughRabbitMQ connection parameters now use environment credentials before configuration values. Tests cover environment precedence, configuration fallback, and username-only overrides. ChangesRabbitMQ credentials
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Explicitly set empty RabbitMQ credential variables currently fall back to the bundled config values instead of acting as overrides, which can cause workers to use unexpected credentials. Merge should wait until this behavior is corrected or explicitly accepted. Suggested reviewers: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Treat defined empty environment variables as overrides. The implementation uses or, which falls back to config credentials for empty environment values. The tests do not detect this behavior.
