Stefan Miklosovic commented on CASSANDRA-16456:
-----------------------------------------------
Just to say that, we are changing it to snakecase because all other property
sections are in snake so we are going to be consistent here, yes.
Yes, please change it to auth_provider_config.
I am sorry we are returning to this but it is rather suspicious to have a new
set of flags for cqlsh dealing with auth provider stuff in particular. I am
just wondering why we are introducing new command line flags just for this
feature. Why is it so special? Why not to just parse everything from the file?
I do not think there is any other case where we are overriding stuff in cqlshrc
by the command line arguments.

> Currently the Cassandra drivers offer a plugin authenticator architecture for
> the support of different authentication methods. This has been leveraged to
> provide support for LDAP, Kerberos, and Sigv4 authentication. Unfortunately,
> cqlsh, the included CLI tool, does not offer such support. Switching to a new
> enhanced authentication scheme thus means being cut off from using cqlsh in
> normal operation.
> We should have a means of using the same plugins and authentication providers
> as the Python Cassandra driver.
