All Implemented Interfaces:

IAuthenticator

public class PasswordAuthenticator
extends java.lang.Object
implements IAuthenticator

PasswordAuthenticator is an IAuthenticator implementation that keeps credentials (usernames and bcrypt-hashed passwords) internally in C* - in system_auth.credentials CQL3 table.

PasswordAuthenticator

public PasswordAuthenticator()

Method Detail

requireAuthentication

public boolean requireAuthentication()

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Whether or not the authenticator requires explicit login. If false will instantiate user with AuthenticatedUser.ANONYMOUS_USER.

Specified by:

requireAuthentication in interface IAuthenticator

supportedOptions

public java.util.Set<IAuthenticator.Option> supportedOptions()

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Set of options supported by CREATE USER and ALTER USER queries. Should never return null - always return an empty set instead.

Specified by:

supportedOptions in interface IAuthenticator

alterableOptions

public java.util.Set<IAuthenticator.Option> alterableOptions()

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Subset of supportedOptions that users are allowed to alter when performing ALTER USER [themselves]. Should never return null - always return an empty set instead.

Specified by:

alterableOptions in interface IAuthenticator

authenticate

public AuthenticatedUser authenticate(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> credentials)
                               throws AuthenticationException

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Authenticates a user given a Map of credentials. Should never return null - always throw AuthenticationException instead. Returning AuthenticatedUser.ANONYMOUS_USER is an option as well if authentication is not required.

Specified by:

authenticate in interface IAuthenticator

Throws:

AuthenticationException - if credentials don't match any known user.

create

public void create(java.lang.String username,
                   java.util.Map<IAuthenticator.Option,java.lang.Object> options)
            throws InvalidRequestException,
                   RequestExecutionException

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Called during execution of CREATE USER query (also may be called on startup, see seedSuperuserOptions method). If authenticator is static then the body of the method should be left blank, but don't throw an exception. options are guaranteed to be a subset of supportedOptions().

Specified by:

create in interface IAuthenticator

Parameters:

username - Username of the user to create.

options - Options the user will be created with.

Throws:

RequestExecutionException

InvalidRequestException

alter

public void alter(java.lang.String username,
                  java.util.Map<IAuthenticator.Option,java.lang.Object> options)
           throws RequestExecutionException

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Called during execution of ALTER USER query. options are always guaranteed to be a subset of supportedOptions(). Furthermore, if the user performing the query is not a superuser and is altering himself, then options are guaranteed to be a subset of alterableOptions(). Keep the body of the method blank if your implementation doesn't support any options.

Specified by:

alter in interface IAuthenticator

Parameters:

username - Username of the user that will be altered.

options - Options to alter.

Throws:

RequestExecutionException

drop

public void drop(java.lang.String username)
          throws RequestExecutionException

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Called during execution of DROP USER query.

Specified by:

drop in interface IAuthenticator

Parameters:

username - Username of the user that will be dropped.

Throws:

RequestExecutionException

protectedResources

public java.util.Set<DataResource> protectedResources()

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Set of resources that should be made inaccessible to users and only accessible internally.

Specified by:

protectedResources in interface IAuthenticator

Returns:

Keyspaces, column families that will be unmodifiable by users; other resources.

validateConfiguration

public void validateConfiguration()
                           throws ConfigurationException

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Validates configuration of IAuthenticator implementation (if configurable).

Specified by:

validateConfiguration in interface IAuthenticator

Throws:

ConfigurationException - when there is a configuration error.

setup

public void setup()

Description copied from interface: IAuthenticator

Setup is called once upon system startup to initialize the IAuthenticator. For example, use this method to create any required keyspaces/column families.

Specified by:

setup in interface IAuthenticator
