@ -5,24 +5,50 @@ MongoDB supports several different authentication mechanisms. These examples
cover all authentication methods currently supported by PyMongo, documenting
Python module and MongoDB version dependencies.
MONGODB-CR
----------
MONGODB-CR is the default authentication mechanism supported by a MongoDB
deployment configured for authentication. Authentication is per-database and
credentials can be specified through the MongoDB URI or passed to the
:meth:`~pymongo.database.Database.authenticate` method::
SCRAM-SHA-1 (RFC 5802)
----------------------
.. versionadded:: 2.8
SCRAM-SHA-1 is the default authentication mechanism supported by a cluster
configured for authentication with MongoDB 2.8 or later. Authentication is
per-database and credentials can be specified through the MongoDB URI or
passed to the :meth:`~pymongo.database.Database.authenticate` method::
>>> from pymongo import MongoClient
>>> client = MongoClient('example.com')
>>> client.the_database.authenticate('user', 'password')
>>> client.the_database.authenticate('user', 'password', mechanism='SCRAM-SHA-1')
True
>>>
>>> uri = "mongodb://user:password@example.com/the_database"
>>> uri = "mongodb://user:password@example.com/the_database?authMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1"
>>> client = MongoClient(uri)
>>>
When using MongoDB's delegated authentication features, a separate
authentication source can be specified (using PyMongo 2.5 or newer)::
MONGODB-CR
----------
Before MongoDB 2.8 the default authentication mechanism was MONGODB-CR,
the "MongoDB Challenge-Response" protocol::
>>> from pymongo import MongoClient
>>> client = MongoClient('example.com')
>>> client.the_database.authenticate('user', 'password', mechanism='MONGODB-CR')
True
>>>
>>> uri = "mongodb://user:password@example.com/the_database?authMechanism=MONGODB-CR"
>>> client = MongoClient(uri)
Default Authentication Mechanism
--------------------------------
If no mechanism is specified, PyMongo automatically uses MONGODB-CR when
connected to a pre-2.8 version of MongoDB, and SCRAM-SHA-1 when connected to
a recent version.
Delegated Authentication
------------------------
.. versionadded: 2.5
In MongoDB 2.4.x a separate authentication source can be specified.
This feature was introduced in MongoDB 2.4 and removed in 2.6::
>>> from pymongo import MongoClient
>>> client = MongoClient('example.com')
