An Auth Service for Swift as WSGI Middleware that uses Swift itself as a backing store. Docs at: https://swauth.readthedocs.io/ or ask in #openstack-swauth on freenode IRC.
See also https://github.com/openstack/keystone for the standard OpenStack auth service.
Be sure to review the docs at: https://swauth.readthedocs.io/
-
Install Swauth with
sudo python setup.py install
orsudo python setup.py develop
or via whatever packaging system you may be using. -
Alter your proxy-server.conf pipeline to have swauth instead of tempauth:
Was:
[pipeline:main] pipeline = catch_errors cache tempauth proxy-server
Change To:
[pipeline:main] pipeline = catch_errors cache swauth proxy-server
-
Add to your proxy-server.conf the section for the Swauth WSGI filter:
[filter:swauth] use = egg:swauth#swauth set log_name = swauth super_admin_key = swauthkey
-
Be sure your proxy server allows account management:
[app:proxy-server] ... allow_account_management = true
-
Restart your proxy server
swift-init proxy reload
-
Initialize the Swauth backing store in Swift
swauth-prep -K swauthkey
-
Add an account/user
swauth-add-user -A http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/ -K swauthkey -a test tester testing
-
Ensure it works
swift -A http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/v1.0 -U test:tester -K testing stat -v
-
If you installed from packages, you'll need to cd to the webadmin directory the package installed. This is
/usr/share/doc/python-swauth/webadmin
with the Lucid packages. If you installed from source, you'll need to cd to the webadmin directory in the source directory. -
Upload the Web Admin files with
swift -A http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/v1.0 -U .super_admin:.super_admin -K swauthkey upload .webadmin .
-
Open
http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/
in your browser.
Swift3 middleware can be used with
swauth when auth_type
in swauth is configured to be Plaintext (default).
[pipeline:main]
pipeline = catch_errors cache swift3 swauth proxy-server
It can be used with auth_type
set to Sha1/Sha512 too but with certain caveats
and security concern. Hence, s3 support is disabled by default and you have to
explicitly enable it in your configuration.
Refer to swift3 compatibility section
in documentation for further details
