[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-16456) Add Plugin Support for CQLSH

["Michael Semb Wever (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16456?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17599153#comment-17599153 ] 

Michael Semb Wever commented on CASSANDRA-16456:
------------------------------------------------

[~smiklosovic], we need the puresasl removed from the {{lib/}} folder in git. This is a blocker to our next release (as we're broken ASF release policy here). The dependency should be downloaded and put into the {{lib/}} folder in the same way our other python dependencies are downloaded.

Shall we re-open this ticket, or would you like me to create a new ticket?

> Currently the Cassandra drivers offer a plugin authenticator architecture for the support of different authentication methods. This has been leveraged to provide support for LDAP, Kerberos, and Sigv4 authentication. Unfortunately, cqlsh, the included CLI tool, does not offer such support. Switching to a new enhanced authentication scheme thus means being cut off from using cqlsh in normal operation.
> We should have a means of using the same plugins and authentication providers as the Python Cassandra driver.
