What's the best way to set username password for DB?

I currently set them as system env variables and then have placeholers in the properties files. This helps in avoiding a bad commit to GitHub.

    I add them to a config file, of course both are encrypted, the decryption key is hard coded though I know that means nothing if someone got hold of the dll and de-compiled it, but I hope no one does hack into my server

    @teequila What do you use for user data storage then?

    Have a config file like .env.dist and have people rename it to .env and fill out private details

    Then add the .env.dist to your gitignore
