Mate Juhasz commented on HIVE-22355:
------------------------------------
Thanks [~pvary] for your inputs! Uploading a new patch from a sightly different
approach according to what we talked offline.
Content:
* The "auth" parameter could be provided as part of the JDBC url to ensure
backward compatibility, also this way getting HiveConf is not necessary
* Replaced the constant with "NONE" so its more readable
* The "new Character()" is safe to be removed due to autoboxing in Java
* Reverted the test changes
> Beeline should not prompt for hive user and password when authentication is
> NONE

> Beeline - without adding the jdbc url - prompts for username and password in
> case hive.server2.authentication=NONE, which is possibly pointless and can be
> misleading for users as any input is accepted.
> In addition, Sqoop has dropped hive cli recently in favor of beeline and if
> there is no authentication set in Hive, Sqoop fails to connect as the process
> stops waiting for the user/password input.
> I think it would be nice to check the auth type "NONE" before reading unused
> inputs from the console before this point:
