Hello here,
I was wondering is whether Zookeeper community would benefit from Pluggable
SASL Authentication.
Today SASLAuthenticationProvider is used for all SASL based authentications
which creates some "if/else" statements in ZookeeperSaslClient and
ZookeeperSaslServer code even with just Kerberos and Digest.We want to use yet
another different SASL based authentication and adding one more "if/else" with
some code specific just to that new way does not make much sense.Proposal is to
allow to plug custom SASL Authentication mechanism(s).I have submitted JIRA:
[ZOOKEEPER-2159] Pluggable SASL Authentication - ASF JIRAwith the proposal, so
I would appreciate feedback from the community.Thanks,Yuliya
