> 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
> Priority: Normal
> Fix For: 4.1.x, 5.0.x, 5.x
>
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> 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.
