Dario Lombardo commented on FLUME-2758:
---------------------------------------
I'd like to submit a patch for this, but I can't find the place to assign the
bug to myself. Do I have to request access?
> Shield Support for Elasticsearch Sink
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLUME-2758
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2758
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: v1.6.0
> Reporter: Jared Ramsey
>
> The existing Elasticsearch sink does not support Elasticsearch clusters that
> have been secured with Shield. (See https://www.elastic.co/products/shield)
> All that would be required to add this support is allowing users to configure
> the username and password on the sink in their flume.conf and then setting
> the username and password on the HTTP header like so:
> UsernamePasswordCredentials creds = new
> UsernamePasswordCredentials("username", "password");
> HttpPost httpRequest = new HttpPost(url);
> httpRequest.addHeader(new BasicScheme().authenticate(creds, httpRequest));
> I've already hard-coded a quick fix for myself that works, but it would be
> awesome to see this in a future release and/or patch.
