Hey I started a PR #1612 for this topic and found a way to implement it. Maybe someone with more knowledge can improve it.
caching_sha2_password
is now the default on MySQL 8.4 and mysql_native_password
is disabled by default.
Use Case
I want to be able to use the Puppet MySQL module with future MySQL 8 versions. The MySQL Server warns me in his logs, that mysql_native_password will be removed in the future
Describe the Solution You Would Like
Implementing a feature that can create MySQL users using caching_sha2_password.
Additional Context
This one seems difficult as I couldn't find a documented way that MySQL uses to hash passwords with caching_sha2_password, so that Puppet can hash the password the same way. The MySQL password function has been removed, too. I was thinking about using
IDENTIFIED WITH caching_sha2_password BY '#{string}'"
but I guess this way Puppet would recreate the user every run.Does anybody has already started on this or has any idea?
