auth,user,role for authentication:

export ETCDCTL_API=3
ENDPOINTS=localhost:2379

etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} role add root
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} role get root

etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} user add root
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} user grant-role root root
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} user get root

etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} role add role0
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} role grant-permission role0 readwrite foo
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} user add user0
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} user grant-role user0 role0

etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} auth enable
# now all client requests go through auth

etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} --user=user0:123 put foo bar
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} get foo
# permission denied, user name is empty because the request does not issue an authentication request
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} --user=user0:123 get foo
# user0 can read the key foo
etcdctl --endpoints=${ENDPOINTS} --user=user0:123 get foo1

Note:

This is just a stub which needs to be filled and updated with more information on authentication. The text above is just a code example.

Role-based access control

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Overview

Authentication was added in etcd 2.1. The etcd v3 API slightly modified the authentication feature’s API and user interface to better fit the new data model. This guide is intended to help users set up basic authentication and role-based access control in etcd v3.

Special users and roles

There is one special user, root, and one special role, root.
