[💡 FEATURE REQUEST]: SSL Support for the AMQP driver.

I have an idea!

The problem is that you can't connect to RabbitMQ that uses SSL (port 5671) with the current driver and I'm requesting support for it:

e.g.

Config:

ca_certicate       string `mapstructure:"ca_certicate"`
client_certificate string `mapstructure:"client_certificate"`
client_key         string `mapstructure:"client_key"`
server_name        string `mapstructure:"server_name"`

Connection:

import (
	"crypto/tls"
	"crypto/x509"
	"io/ioutil"
)

caCert, err := ioutil.ReadFile(conf.ca_certicate)
if err != nil {
	return nil, errors.E(op, err)
}

cert, err := tls.LoadX509KeyPair(conf.client_certificate, conf.client_key)
if err != nil {
	return nil, errors.E(op, err)
}

rootCAs := x509.NewCertPool()
rootCAs.AppendCertsFromPEM(caCert)

tlsConf := &tls.Config{
	RootCAs:      rootCAs,
	Certificates: []tls.Certificate{cert},
	ServerName:   conf.server_name, // Optional
}

jb.conn, err = amqp.DialTLS(
	fmt.Sprintf(conf.Addr),
	tlsConf,
)
if err != nil {
	return nil, errors.E(op, err)
}

And then in rr.yaml:

amqp:
  addr: amqps://guest:[email protected]:5671
  ca_certificate: # path to cert
  client_certificate: # path to cert
  client_key: # path to cert
  server_name: mydomain.com

This is just a rough example.

Hey @marcosraudkett 👋🏻
This is a good idea 👍🏻 We should also support mTLS, I think, but I'm not sure if rabbitMQ supports it.

I will move this FR to the v2023.2.0 milestone for now.

will there be an option to disable peer verification? Could be useful for self-signed certificates to prevent errors due to missing CA.

Are you referring to the mTLS, am I right? An option to disable mutual TSL.

If you're saying about this: https://www.rabbitmq.com/ssl.html#peer-verification-configuration, then yes, you'll be able to opt-out from the mTLS verification.

Feature is ready, will be next Thursday in the first beta release

Generally would be possible to verify peer (mTLS) as well as turn off that feature.
