Dummy

Dummy authentication provider that disables authentication.

Local development only. This filter accepts any username and password, so anyone who can reach Datashare can read every document. Never expose a Datashare instance using this filter to the network or the internet.

The dummy method (--auth yesBasic) shows the browser's native basic-auth popup, but any credentials are accepted:

basic auth popup

Whatever user or password you type will enter Datashare.

Example

docker run -ti ICIJ/datashare app start --mode SERVER \
    --dataDir /home/dev/data \
    --batchQueueType REDIS \
    --dataSourceUrl 'jdbc:postgresql://postgres/datashare?user=dstest&password=test' \
    --sessionStoreType REDIS \
    --auth yesBasic
