--------------------------------------
Summary: Support Sentry service API to retrieve privilege
hierarchy of the given authorizable object
Key: SENTRY-359
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-359
Project: Sentry
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.4.0
Reporter: Prasad Mujumdar
The current implementation of list_sentry_privileges_for_provider is
specifically to facilitate Sentry auth engine. It's not intended to be a
general purpose metadata query.
We should add a new API that returns the list of privileges (TSentryPrivilege)
for the give authorizable object and all it's child objects.
An initial implementation could limit itself to one level of hierarchy (eg when
you query a database object, return the tables along with it).
