-------------------------------------------
Summary: Consistent use of base 64 encoded bytes for SASL
negotiation
Key: TINKERPOP-1600
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1600
Project: TinkerPop
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: driver, server
Affects Versions: 3.2.3
Reporter: stephen mallette
Assignee: stephen mallette
Fix For: 3.2.4
Gremlin Server currently uses a mix of base 64 encoded bytes and byte arrays
for SASL negotiation. This can cause problems for certain serializers (like
toString serialization with gryo) as the byte array won't be respected. In an
effort to easily support virtually any serializer a switch to using just base
64 string is probably best.
This can be done in such a way as to be backward compatible. The base64 SASL
value will be returned in the response message status attributes map in a key
called "sasl". The original byte array will continue to be returned in the
response message result. Eventually, we could phase out the byte array in the
result - perhaps with 3.3.0.
