------------------------------------------
Summary: Support pluggable user token provider HiveMetastoreClient
Key: HIVE-27009
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-27009
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar
In HTTP mode, the HiveMetastoreClient can add a token based on the environment
variable HMS_JWT. However, this approach is not very flexible because
environment variables cannot be changed once set without restarting the JVM. It
would be good to have a pluggable interface called
HiveMetastoreUserTokenProvider which can provide token specific to the actual
user session which is being used to connect to the HiveMetastore. If the user
token provider is not available, we can fall back to using the environment
variable HMS_JWT to keep backwards compatibility.
