Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-1688:
-------------------------------------
Got it. That does make sense.
> Add authorization interface and naive implementation
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-1688
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1688
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: security
> Reporter: Jay Kreps
> Assignee: Parth Brahmbhatt
> Fix For: 0.8.3
>
>
> Add a PermissionManager interface as described here:
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Security
> (possibly there is a better name?)
> Implement calls to the PermissionsManager in KafkaApis for the main requests
> (FetchRequest, ProduceRequest, etc). We will need to add a new error code and
> exception to the protocol to indicate "permission denied".
> Add a server configuration to give the class you want to instantiate that
> implements that interface. That class can define its own configuration
> properties from the main config file.
> Provide a simple implementation of this interface which just takes a user and
> ip whitelist and permits those in either of the whitelists to do anything,
> and denies all others.
> Rather than writing an integration test for this class we can probably just
> use this class for the TLS and SASL authentication testing.
