Sam Tunnicliffe updated CASSANDRA-8850:
---------------------------------------
Attachment: 8850.txt
Attached patch removes the ordering constraints on options supplied to
{{(CREATE|ALTER) ROLE}} statements. Also, the {{WITH}} and {{AND}} become
optional, allowing for syntax like:
{code}
CREATE ROLE r WITH LOGIN AND PASSWORD = 'foo';
CREATE ROLE r WITH PASSWORD 'foo' AND LOGIN AND SUPERUSER;
CREATE ROLE r WITH SUPERUSER LOGIN PASSWORD = 'foo';
CREATE ROLE r NOLOGIN; // compatibility with existing syntax
CREATE ROLE r WITH PASSWORD = 'foo' LOGIN SUPERUSER; // compatibility with
existing syntax
{code}
All of the existing dtests in test_auth.py & test_auth_roles.py still pass and
I added some unit tests to verify the various permutations of the syntax.
{{(CREATE|ALTER) USER}} remains as before. That is, only the following form is
supported:
{code}
CREATE USER u WITH PASSWORD 'foo' SUPERUSER;
{code}
> clean up options syntax for create/alter role

> {{CREATE/ALTER ROLE}} syntax would be improved by using {{WITH}} and {{AND}}
> in a way more consistent with other statements.
> e.g. {{CREATE ROLE foo WITH LOGIN AND SUPERUSER AND PASSWORD 'password'}}
