MongoDB with Panache and Kerberos

[debu999]

Hi team,
We are looking at moving to mongodb with kerberos connectivity using Quarkus. Can someone help on how to configure.
Right now we do not have issue as the database is open but now the team is adding kerberos protection.
Do advise on this.

A quarkus insight will help as well

I never used Kerberos authentication myself, it's an enterprise feature.

According to the documentation, client side, you should configure:

quarkus.mongodb.credentials.auth-mechanism=GSSAPI
#The Kerberos user name, including the realm, e.g. "user1@MYREALM.ME"
quarkus.mongodb.credentials.username=<your_kerberos_user>

Some Java system properties must be defined as documented in the MongoDB documentation: http://mongodb.github.io/mongo-java-driver/3.0/driver/reference/connecting/authenticating/#kerberos-gssapi
