External Redis database in the Helm Chart

[mik-laj]

Hello

Some users do not want to use Redis provided by Helm Chart, but want to use an external database (installed on the same cluster or in a remote service such as Cloud Memorystore for Redis). It would be useful to be able to configure the deployment so that such a database would be used by Celery.

Best regards,
Kamil Breguła

Hello, just came across this issue.
Just wanted to let you know that we have started working on it a couple days ago: MeilleursAgents@fb421f8 (it should work).

We plan on upstreaming this change at some point.

If the change roughly looks good to you, I can work on upstreaming this a bit earlier than I thought (it currently lacks documentation and tests).

Ok, once this is tested in pre-production on our side, i'll come back to this.

@FloChehab This is NOT urgent for me. I wanted to create a ticket to fill in the missing feature before this Helm Chart was released. I think you can wait to release this change as we are changing the unit test framework for Helm Chart. The new framework will be much more convenient and easy to use, so you can fix your defects much faster.

[FloChehab]

Sounds good to me.

We have already finished the migration to the new framework. Nothing is blocking anymore to work on this change.

Sorry I miss clicked, I'll work on it very soon.
