I want to set up my project so that each service will have a different amqp uri, is there anyway to do that?  
here is my idea:  
In config.yml:  
DEFAULT\_AMQP\_URI: amqp://{RABBIT\_USER:guest}:{RABBIT\_PASSWORD:guest}@{RABBIT\_HOST:localhost}:{RABBIT\_PORT:5672}/

{SERVICE\_1\_NAME}\_AMQP\_URI: amqp://{RABBIT\_USER\_1:guest}:{RABBIT\_PASSWORD\_1:guest}@{RABBIT\_HOST\_1:localhost}:{RABBIT\_PORT\_1:5672}/

{SERVICE\_2\_NAME}\_AMQP\_URI: amqp://{RABBIT\_USER\_2:guest}:{RABBIT\_PASSWORD\_2:guest}@{RABBIT\_HOST\_2:localhost}:{RABBIT\_PORT\_2:5672}/

ect…

So that if a service that has config in config.yml will use its own uri, if not, it will use DEFAULT\_AMQP\_URI

or is there any way that I can set the amqp uri inside service file?

Thanks

The way to do this is to use different config files for each service.

Changing the config key or value inside the service would take quite a lot of hacking because it’s not read in a single place. You can do it, but you’d have to subclass every AMQP extension that you’re using.
