Hello,
Quick question. How do I specify keyword arguments that are not present
in the AMQP spec?
For example, when I create a queue, I want to specify a SELinux context
in the call to session.queue_declare. However, valid keyword arguments
must be specified in the specfile as far as I know (I get an exception
otherwise).
On page 22 of the RedHat Messaging User Guide for 1.1, it indicates:
"Any qpidd specific options can be passed in the arguments field. See
the MRG Messaging API documentation for the client language you wish to
use for more details." The Python API doc does not give the format for
the "arguments" keyword for qpidd. How might I structure the call noted
below, to pass the SEL context?
replyQueue = session.queue_declare(queue=replyQueueName,
exclusive=True,
auto_delete=True,
secontext="one:two:three")
The arguments field is a map so you could do:
session.queue_declare(queue=replyQueueName,
exclusive=True,
auto_delete=True,
arguments={"secontext":"one:two:three"})
Is this the right approach for passing the SEL context though? We don't
pass ACL permissions for queues that way, at least at present. Would a
config file that defines any necessary mapping work?
I would prefer to keep SELinux specific stuff within an ACL
implementation plugin if at all possible.
