About password encryption
Describe the problem For now, the redis password and basic auth secret is not encrypted. Is there any plan to provide further password encryption?
reference (node_exporter basic auth encryption)
What version of redis_exporter are you running? v1.67.0
Is there any plan to provide further password encryption?
Not as of right now.
This could be a good feature to implement for someone that's interested in contributing.
Unlike reference (node_exporter basic auth encryption, where node_exporter acts as a server to authenticate HTTP passwords and can use password hash functions to store hashed passwords, redis_exporter is different—we need to provide plaintext passwords for Redis to verify.
