Enum Constant Detail

OPENID

public static final AuthType OPENID

Login relies upon the OpenID standard

OPENID_SSO

public static final AuthType OPENID_SSO

Login relies upon the OpenID standard in Single Sign On mode

HTTP

public static final AuthType HTTP

Login relies upon the container/web server security.

The container or web server must populate an HTTP header with a unique name for the current user. Gerrit will implicitly trust the value of this header to supply the unique identity.

HTTP_LDAP

public static final AuthType HTTP_LDAP

Login relies upon the container/web server security.

Like HTTP, the container or web server must populate an HTTP header with a unique name for the current user. Gerrit will implicitly trust the value of this header to supply the unique identity.

After the authentication is done Gerrit will obtain basic user registration (name and email), and some group memberships, from LDP. Hence the "_LDAP" suffix in the name of this authentication type.

Gerrit will NOT authenticate the user via LDAP.

CLIENT_SSL_CERT_LDAP

public static final AuthType CLIENT_SSL_CERT_LDAP

Login via client SSL certificate.

This authentication type is actually kind of SSO. Gerrit will configure Jetty's SSL channel to request client's SSL certificate. For this authentication to work a Gerrit administrator has to import the root certificate of the trust chain used to issue the client's certificate into the <review-site>/etc/keystore.

After the authentication is done Gerrit will obtain basic user registration (name and email), and some group memberships, from LDP. Hence the "_LDAP" suffix in the name of this authentication type.

Gerrit will NOT authenticate the user via LDAP.

LDAP

public static final AuthType LDAP

Login collects username and password through a web form, and binds to LDAP.

Unlike HTTP_LDAP, Gerrit presents a sign-in dialog to the user and makes the connection to the LDAP server on their behalf.

LDAP_BIND

public static final AuthType LDAP_BIND

Login collects username and password through a web form, and binds to LDAP.

Unlike HTTP_LDAP, Gerrit presents a sign-in dialog to the user and makes the connection to the LDAP server on their behalf.

Unlike the more generic LDAP mode, Gerrit can only query the directory via an actual authenticated user account.

CUSTOM_EXTENSION

public static final AuthType CUSTOM_EXTENSION

Login is managed by additional, unspecified code.

DEVELOPMENT_BECOME_ANY_ACCOUNT

public static final AuthType DEVELOPMENT_BECOME_ANY_ACCOUNT

Development mode to enable becoming anyone you want.

OAUTH

public static final AuthType OAUTH

Generic OAuth provider over HTTP.

Method Detail

values

public static AuthType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (AuthType c : AuthType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static AuthType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
