---------------------------------------
Summary: Allow custom HiveConf to be passed to Authentication
Providers
Key: HIVE-13179
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13179
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Rajat Khandelwal
Assignee: Rajat Khandelwal
Right now if I want to create an ldap auth provider, I have to create a
hive-site.xml, set endpoints and other relevant properties there, then
instantiate `LdapAuthenticationProviderImpl`, since inside the constructor, a
new HiveConf is constructed.
A better and more reusable design would be to ask for the conf in the
constructor itself. That will allow an external user to create a HiveConf, set
all relevant properties and instantiate `LdapAuthenticationProviderImpl` with
that conf.
