---------------------------------
Summary: Error reading data from credential file
Key: CASSANDRA-19498
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-19498
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation, Tool/cqlsh
Reporter: Slava
The pylib/cqlshlib/cqlshmain.py code reads data from the credentials file,
however, it is immediately ignored.
https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/c9625e0102dab66f41d3ef2338c54d499e73a8c5/pylib/cqlshlib/cqlshmain.py#L2070
{code:java}
if not options.username:
credentials = configparser.ConfigParser()
if options.credentials is not None:
credentials.read(options.credentials) # use the username
from credentials file but fallback to cqlshrc if username is absent from the
command line parameters
options.username = username_from_cqlshrc if not options.password:
rawcredentials = configparser.RawConfigParser()
if options.credentials is not None:
rawcredentials.read(options.credentials) # handling password
in the same way as username, priority cli > credentials > cqlshrc
options.password = option_with_default(rawcredentials.get,
'plain_text_auth', 'password', password_from_cqlshrc)
options.password = password_from_cqlshrc{code}
These corrections have been made in accordance with
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16983 and
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16456.
The documentation does not indicate that AuthProviders can be used in the
cqlshrc and credentials files.
I propose to return the ability to use the legacy option of specifying the user
and password in the credentials file in the [plain_text_auth] section.
It is also required to describe the rules for using the credentials file in the
documentation.
I can make a corresponding pull request.
