Xiaoguang Sun commented on FLINK-21108:
---------------------------------------
Both client side and client are pretty simple. They share most code to compute
authentication header from credentials.
Client side just need to add header 'Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxxxxx' to
request header.
Server side is pretty simple as well. It can check if header matches and
returns HTTP 401 with header 'WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="User Visible
Realm", charset="UTF-8"' if not, that's it.
