-------------------------------------
Summary: Authenticator Module: Location and Naming
Key: MESOS-1893
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1893
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: modules
Reporter: Till Toenshoff
Assignee: Till Toenshoff
Priority: Blocker
h4. Motivation
Render a well structured and mesos-alike naming and folder tree. This shall be
similar to what we know from the awesome! containerizer structure.
h4. Folder Structure
For the flat-file Authenticator Module but also for authentication as a whole,
I would like to propose the following structural changes:
- move {{authenticator.hpp}} out of {{sasl/}}
- create a new {{authentication/}}
- create a new {{authentication/authenticator/}}
-- put the module interface here and name it {{authenticator.hpp}}
- create a new {{authentication/authenticator/flatfile/}}
-- put the module implementation here and name it {{authenticator.hpp}}
-- mind that I am proposing {{flatfile}} instead of {{sasl}} due to the fact
that sasl offers many more mechanisms but our current default (CRAM-MD5) and
further dividing the tree into sasl and non-sasl based authentications may be
too verbosive/bloated.
h4. Module Naming
Following the module naming scheme, I would like to propose
{{org_apache_mesos_authenticator_flatfile}} to be used for our first/default
Authenticator.
