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) |
| 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 |
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.
[auth]
mode = standalone
backend = mongodb
backend_kwargs = {"db_username": "admin", "db_password": "pass123"}
enable = True
use_ssl = True
cert = /path/to/ssl/cert/file
key = /path/to/ssl/key/file
logging = /path/to/st2auth.logging.conf
api_url = https://myhost.example.com:9101
debug = False
