Empty username and password with plugin rabbitmq_auth_backend_http

[janiu-001]

Hi expert,

Would you help on one questions? Very appreciated for your response.

1. I enabled the plugin rabbitmq_auth_backend_http to verify the client, following is my configuration:

[
{rabbit, [{auth_backends, [rabbit_auth_backend_http]}]},
{rabbitmq_auth_backend_http,
[{http_method, post},
{user_path, "http://host.docker.internal:3001/users"},
{vhost_path, "http://host.docker.internal:3001/users"},
{resource_path, "http://host.docker.internal:3001/users"},
{topic_path, "http://host.docker.internal:3001/users"}]}
].

2. And i set the user name and password with connect option:

3. But I could not get the username and password from body, the body is empty:

{user_path, "http://host.docker.internal:3001/users"},
{vhost_path, "http://host.docker.internal:3001/users"},
{resource_path, "http://host.docker.internal:3001/users"},

looks like a typo. You have an identical URL for all three endpoints.

Start with verifying effective configuration and consider using the "new" (has been around for a few years now) configuration format which the HTTP authN backend supports:

auth_backends.1 = http
auth_http.http_method   = post
auth_http.user_path     = http://some-server/auth/user
auth_http.vhost_path    = http://some-server/auth/vhost
auth_http.resource_path = http://some-server/auth/resource
auth_http.topic_path    = http://some-server/auth/topic
