Make it easy to enable Karaf PropertiesLoginModule via an optional feature
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: KARAF-1368
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-1368
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: karaf-feature
Reporter: Sergey Beryozkin
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.2.7, 2.3.0
Typically it is recommended to deploy the following Blueprint context in order
to enable a JAAS PropertiesLoginModule shipped with Karaf:
{code:xml}
<blueprint xmlns="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/blueprint/v1.0.0";
xmlns:jaas="http://karaf.apache.org/xmlns/jaas/v1.0.0";
xmlns:ext="http://aries.apache.org/blueprint/xmlns/blueprint-ext/v1.0.0";>
<!-- Bean to allow the $[karaf.base] property to be correctly resolved -->
<ext:property-placeholder placeholder-prefix="$[" placeholder-suffix="]"/>
<jaas:config name="karaf">
<jaas:module
className="org.apache.karaf.jaas.modules.properties.PropertiesLoginModule"
flags="required">
users=$[karaf.base]/etc/users.properties
</jaas:module>
</jaas:config>
</blueprint>
{code}
and here is a typical pom.xml:
{code:xml}
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

{code}
Such a bundle is generic and will work with any service depending on
PropertiesLoginModule.
It would be nice if Karaf itself shipped such a bundle and offered an optional
feature, tentatively named 'karaf-jaas-login-properties' (or similar) so that
whenever a user want to work with PropertiesLoginModule all he/she needs to do
is to modify etc/user.properties and do 'features:install
karaf-jaas-login-properties'.
Note it is not a new enhancement request but simply a wish to get the default
properties login module easily enabled when needed
