----------------------------------
Summary: Provide interface for getting a User in the client
Key: HBASE-9221
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9221
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Client, hadoop2, security
Reporter: Jesse Yates
Assignee: Jesse Yates
Sometimes, users will want to provide their own User class depending on the
type of security they will support in their local environment. For instance,
running Hadoop1 vs Hadoop2 vs CDH means potentially different ways of getting
the UserGroupInformation.
This issue abstracts out the mechanism by which we obtain an
o.a.h.hbase.security.User to a UserProvider. This UserProvider can then be
extented as a Hadoop 1/2 shim as well as supporting custom authentication code.
