Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-12120:
------------------------------------
Committed a few minor improvements caused by testing with a new 3rd party audit
plugin. If auditing fails, the request itself should not fail even in
synchronous mode, but cause an ERROR level log and of course incrementing the
ERROR metrics counter.
> New plugin type AuditLoggerPlugin

> Solr needs a well defined plugin point to implement audit logging
> functionality, which is independent from whatever {{AuthenticationPlugin}} or
> {{AuthorizationPlugin}} are in use at the time.
> It seems reasonable to introduce a new plugin type {{AuditLoggerPlugin}}. It
> could be configured in solr.xml or it could be a third type of plugin defined
> in {{security.json}}, i.e.
> {code:java}
> {
> "authentication" : { "class" : ... },
> "authorization" : { "class" : ... },
> "auditlogging" : { "class" : "x.y.MyAuditLogger", ... }
> }
> {code}
> We could then instrument SolrDispatchFilter to the audit plugin with an
> AuditEvent at important points such as successful authentication:
> {code:java}
> auditLoggerPlugin.audit(new SolrAuditEvent(EventType.AUTHENTICATED,
> request));
> {code}
> We will mark the impl as {{@lucene.experimental}} in the first release to
> let it settle as people write their own plugin implementations.
