Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-8440:
-----------------------------------

For this feature I simply intended to add ONE user which can do everything 
(blockUnknown=true), and if you don't authenticate you cannot do anything. 
That's the first, simplest, most logical and most useful step for a random 
user. We should probably have a usage like this for completeness and future 
proof:

{code}
bin/solr auth -type basic <adduser|deluser|setprop|delprop> [-user <user>] 
[-pass <pass>] [-prop <key>[=value]]
{code}

Let's create another JIRAs for enabling Authorization, defining groups, adding 
users to groups etc...

> Now that BasicAuthPlugin will be able to work without an AuthorizationPlugin 
> (SOLR-8429), it would be sweet to provide a super simple way to "Password 
> protect Solr"™ right from the command line:
> {noformat}
> bin/solr basicAuth -adduser -user solr -pass SolrRocks
> {noformat}
> It would take the mystery out of enabling one single password across the 
> board. The command would do something like this
> # Check if HTTPS is enabled, and if not, print a friendly warning
> # Check if {{/security.json}} already exists
> ## NO => create one with only plugin class defined
> ## YES => Abort if exists but plugin is not {{BasicAuthPlugin}}
> # Using security REST API, add the new user
