Activate http-auth security #163

Closed Lechucico closed 7 years ago

Lechucico commented 7 years ago

I would like to know how to set auth-enabled = true. I've created an admin and user but I can still bypass authentication for accessing databases.

How I can make authentication mandatory?

Solved executing this on my own recipe:

node.override['influxdb']['config']['http']['auth-enabled'] = true

influxdb_config node['influxdb']['config_file_path'] do
  config node['influxdb']['config']
  notifies :restart, 'service[influxdb]', :delayed
end

hey @Lechucico. Yes, that is a way to do it. If you look in one of our Test-Kitchen setups, we do show how you can modify the config file by doing what you just did.
