Execute bin/elasticsearch-plugin to install the ES auth plugin.

cd /usr/local/unravel/elasticsearch/
bin/elasticsearch-plugin install -b file:ZIP_FILE_NAME

sudo /usr/local/unravel/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-plugin install

file:///usr/local/unravel/es-auth-plugin/unravel-es-auth-plugin_4.5.1.0rc0169-1.0.zip

Generate an encrypted password using /usr/local/unravel/install_bin/pw_encrypt.sh.

/usr/local/unravel/install_bin/pw_encrypt.sh

Example output:

ENC(Hsmrxf1LGHNzpqKHxV/2rw==)

Add com.unraveldata.es.rest.password to /usr/local/unravel/etc/unravel.properties. Set it to the password you just generated (just the string without the parentheses).

com.unraveldata.es.rest.password=ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD

Example:

com.unraveldata.es.rest.password=Hsmrxf1LGHNzpqKHxV/2rw==

Check that the Unravel auth plugin is installed.

curl "http://localhost:4171/_cat/plugins"

curl -H "Authorization:UnravelDataBasic Hsmrxf1LGHNzpqKHxV/2rw==" "http://localhost:4171/_cat/plugins"

elasticsearch_1 UnravelDataAuth 4.5.1.0rc0169

Restart all daemons.

/etc/init.d/unravel_all.sh restart

To verify the com.unraveldata.es.rest.password is correctly set, curl to internal elastic search with the wrong password. You should receive a response of not authorized.

Example:

curl -H "Authorization:UnravelDataBasic 3I3EbODrX4LyJr/metiJKQ==" "http://localhost:4171/_cat/“
not authorized

curl to internal elastic search with the correct password.

Example:

curl -H "Authorization:UnravelDataBasic Hsmrxf1LGHNzpqKHxV/2rw==" "http://localhost:4171/_cat/“
