[jira] [Commented] (SENTRY-359) Support Sentry service API to retrieve privilege hierarchy of the given authorizable object

["Romain Rigaux (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-359?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14093177#comment-14093177 ] 

Romain Rigaux commented on SENTRY-359:
--------------------------------------

Ideally we could also add as parameters:
2: required set<string> groups,
3: required TSentryActiveRoleSet roleSet,

that way we can do fine grain filtering easily.

> The current implementation of list_sentry_privileges_for_provider is specifically to facilitate Sentry auth engine. It's not intended to be a general purpose metadata query.
> We should add a new API that returns the list of privileges (TSentryPrivilege)  for the give authorizable object and all it's child objects. 
> An initial implementation could limit itself to one level of hierarchy (eg when you query a database object, return the tables along with it).
