> Key: DISPATCH-1440
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-1440
> Project: Qpid Dispatch
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Container
> Affects Versions: 1.9.0
> Reporter: Ganesh Murthy
> Assignee: Ganesh Murthy
> Priority: Major
>
> Deprecate the passwordFile field and consolidate all password scenarios to
> use the password field. We will use the password options that
> [openssl|https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man1/openssl.html] uses (see
> Pass Phrase Options sections). Going forward, here are three ways to specify
> a password in an sslProfile
>
> {noformat}
> sslProfile {
> caCertFile: .....
> certFile: .....
> # Get the password from the environment variable TLS_SERVER_PASSWORD.
> Note the env: prefix
> password: env:TLS_SERVER_PASSWORD
> OR
> # Get the password from the absolute file path. Note the file: prefix
> password: file:/home/tls/password-file.txt
> OR
> # Specify the actual password. Note the pass: prefix
> password: pass:actual_password
> } {noformat}
> (We will not be supporting the openssl options fd: and stdin
>
>
> While you can still specify the actual password in the password field using
> the pass: prefix, which casual users might want to do, you are also able to
> specify the file path or environment variable for more robust security.
> This change will be backward compatible which means, you will still be able
> to specify the actual password in the password field without the pass:
> prefix. The "literal" prefix will continue to work as well. The passwordFile
> field will be deprecated and eventually removed when we to a major version.
