Summary
Password can be passed as value of the
X-ClickHouse-Keyheader docs. But header values have some limitations about what characters can be used (learned from practical tests and https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7230#section-3.2.6) what would require escaping special chars. Basic authentication helps to avoid all this and is standard authentication mechanism.This PR changes both clients (v1, v2).
New configuration parameter is added:
com.clickhouse.client.http.config.ClickHouseHttpOption#USE_BASIC_AUTHENTICATION- allows to switch using ClickHouseX-headers to authenticate. Default is using basic auth.Closes: #1305
