Parth Brahmbhatt created STORM-741:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Allow users to have a config value "doAsUser" that will
be picked up by nimbus client.
Key: STORM-741
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-741
Project: Apache Storm
Issue Type: Sub-task
Reporter: Parth Brahmbhatt
Currently the only way users can impersonate another user is by creating a
NimbusClient explicitly by passing a doAsUser Param. We should allow a config
value "doAsUser" to ensure users can submit this config as part of storm jar
command. This will be useful for storm-rest/ui component which now has the
ability to submit topology. Using this config value the ui server can submit a
storm topology on behalf of another user and the topology will still execute as
the submitter.
