[FEATURE REQUEST] Artifactory Authentication without Artifactory Token

Closed this issue · 4 comments

We have an artifactory installation in which token authentication is not enabled and we authenticate via basic auth. This does not currently appear to be support.

Same problem here. Vote for #129 :)

From talking to JFrog, it looks like they don't recommend we support this: "if the only use case is REST API, access tokens are the best way to go."

@coderanger I understand what JFrog has indicated however if we have an installation where based on its administration, access tokens are not enabled then allowing basic auth is the only way to proceed. Its basically a configurable choice ....

Unfortunately we are not going to add this feature to stove. We're limited on development time here, we want to fold this functionality into knife, and there is an existing, supported way to auth with Artifactory. I apologize if this prohibits you from uploading to artifactory.
