no-auth option #36

Closed KaraMelih closed 2 years ago

KaraMelih commented 2 years ago

For publishing we have auth=True option

Should we check if the user has hop credentials (hop auth locate we can even grab the username if the authentication file exists), and if they do not have the credentials we raise a warning first and default to auth=False in publisher. Or do we only want people with credentials to test the tools? (or that they know they don't have credentials and manually set auth=False ? )

For subscription, we do not have an auth option at all. Maybe at least there we should check this and say "yo, you don't have permission to subscribe, go check your hop credentials"

Khafka has said they only want authorized messages to be published. I'll close the issue but it can be re-opened if someone thinks we need no-auth subscriptions.
