st2-auth-backend-mongodb

MongoDB authentication plugin for StackStorm Community edition

The MongoDB backend reads and authenticates user against data from a MongoDB collection named users. The users collection and the user entries will have to be generated manually. Entries need to have the following attributes:

field	description
username	User name
salt	Password salt
password	SHA256 hash for the salt+password - SHA256(salt+password)

Configuration Options

option	required	default	description
db_host	no	localhost	Hostname for the MongoDB server
db_port	no	27017	Port for the MongoDB server
db_name	no	st2auth	Database name in MongoDB
db_username	no	None	Username for MongoDB login
db_password	no	None	Password for MongoDB login

Configuration Example

Please refer to the authentication section in the StackStorm documentation for basic setup concept. The following is an example of the auth section in the StackStorm configuration file for the flat-file backend.
