Enrico Olivelli commented on BOOKKEEPER-959: -------------------------------------------- [~merlimat] are you OK if I drop the 'extensions' from AuthMessage and add a fixed "bytes" field ? in the PR I have just added an extension, but with this new implementation it is not worth to have such extensions (we have to register the extension anywhere) from {code} /** * Extendible message which auth mechanisms * can use to carry their payload. */ message AuthMessage { required string authPluginName = 1; extensions 1000 to max; } {code} to {code} /** * Message which auth mechanisms * can use to carry their payload. */ message AuthMessage { required string authPluginName = 1; required bytes token = 2; } {code} > ClientAuthProvider and BookieAuthProvider Public API used Protobuf Shaded > classes > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BOOKKEEPER-959 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BOOKKEEPER-959 > Project: Bookkeeper > Issue Type: Bug > Components: bookkeeper-client, bookkeeper-server > Affects Versions: 4.4.0 > Reporter: Enrico Olivelli > Assignee: Enrico Olivelli > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.5.0 > > > With 4.4.0 we introduced the ability to implement custom authentication > plugins. > The new interfaces ClientAuthProvider and BookieAuthProvider depend on > ExtensionRegistry, which is a shaded dependency. > As a consequence it is not possibile to implement any custom auth provider in > code outside the project, because shaded/relocated dependencies cannot be > used. > We need to break the actual interface and introduce a new way to implement > such plugins in a portable way -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
