Hardware introspection daemon for OpenStack Ironic
196c019771
When the config option ``auth_strategy`` is set to ``http_basic`` then non-public API calls require a valid HTTP Basic authentication header to be set. The config option ``http_basic_auth_user_file`` defaults to ``/etc/ironic-inspector/htpasswd`` and points to a file which supports the Apache htpasswd syntax[1]. This file is read for every request, so no service restart is required when changes are made. The only password digest supported is bcrypt, and the ``bcrypt`` python library is used for password checks since it supports ``$2y$`` prefixed bcrypt passwords as generated by the Apache htpasswd utility. To try basic authentication, the following can be done: * Set ``/etc/ironic-inspector/inspector.conf`` ``DEFAULT`` ``auth_strategy`` to ``http_basic`` * Populate the htpasswd file with entries, for example: ``htpasswd -nbB myName myPassword >> /etc/ironic-inspector/htpasswd`` * Make basic authenticated HTTP requests, for example: ``curl --user myName:myPassword http://localhost:6385/v1/introspection`` [1] https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/misc/password_encryptions.html Change-Id: If50dfbfc18445ad9fe27e17cb0ee1b317ff25a0b Depends-On: https://review.opendev.org/729070 Story: 2007656 Task: 39826 |

Hardware introspection for OpenStack Bare Metal
Introduction
This is an auxiliary service for discovering hardware properties for a node managed by Ironic. Hardware introspection or hardware properties discovery is a process of getting hardware parameters required for scheduling from a bare metal node, given its power management credentials (e.g. IPMI address, user name and password).
