Ishan Chattopadhyaya commented on SOLR-8440:
--------------------------------------------
bq. It'd probably be safer to read password from the command line using
Console.readPassword. See
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/io/Console.html#readPassword%28%29
Indeed, done exactly that in the patch. This is available for use if
{{-prompt}} is specified. For users who insist on passing in credentials
through command line, {{-credentials solr:SolrRocks}} is available.

> 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
