[jira] [Created] (HIVE-13179) Allow custom HiveConf to be passed to Authentication Providers

             Summary: Allow custom HiveConf to be passed to Authentication Providers
                 Key: HIVE-13179
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13179
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Rajat Khandelwal
            Assignee: Rajat Khandelwal


Right now if I want to create an ldap auth provider, I have to create a hive-site.xml, set endpoints and other relevant properties there, then instantiate `LdapAuthenticationProviderImpl`, since inside the constructor, a new HiveConf is constructed. 

A better and more reusable design would be to ask for the conf in the constructor itself. That will allow an external user to create a HiveConf, set all relevant properties and instantiate `LdapAuthenticationProviderImpl` with that conf.
