- Document the complete refactoring rationale and implementation
- Provide before/after code examples and usage patterns
- Include migration guide for existing code
- Detail production deployment strategies
- Show dynamic filer selection, failover, and load balancing examples
- Explain memory store compatibility and interface consistency
- Demonstrate environment-agnostic configuration benefits
This change addresses the requirement that filer addresses should be
passed when methods are called, not during initialization, to support:
- Dynamic filer failover and load balancing
- Runtime changes to filer topology
- Environment-agnostic configuration files
### Changes Made:
#### SessionStore Interface & Implementations:
- Updated SessionStore interface to accept filerAddress parameter in all methods
- Modified FilerSessionStore to remove filerAddress field from struct
- Updated MemorySessionStore to accept filerAddress (ignored) for interface consistency
- All methods now take: (ctx, filerAddress, sessionId, ...) parameters
#### STS Service Methods:
- Updated all public STS methods to accept filerAddress parameter:
- AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity(ctx, filerAddress, request)
- AssumeRoleWithCredentials(ctx, filerAddress, request)
- ValidateSessionToken(ctx, filerAddress, sessionToken)
- RevokeSession(ctx, filerAddress, sessionToken)
- ExpireSessionForTesting(ctx, filerAddress, sessionToken)
#### Configuration Cleanup:
- Removed filerAddress from all configuration files (iam_config_distributed.json)
- Configuration now only contains basePath and other store-specific settings
- Makes configs environment-agnostic (dev/staging/prod compatible)
#### Test Updates:
- Updated all test files to pass testFilerAddress parameter
- Tests use dummy filerAddress ('localhost:8888') for consistency
- Maintains test functionality while validating new interface
### Benefits:
- ✅ Filer addresses determined at runtime by caller (S3 API server)
- ✅ Supports filer failover without service restart
- ✅ Configuration files work across environments
- ✅ Follows SeaweedFS patterns used elsewhere in codebase
- ✅ Load balancer friendly - no filer affinity required
- ✅ Horizontal scaling compatible
### Breaking Change:
This is a breaking change for any code calling STS service methods.
Callers must now pass filerAddress as the second parameter.
- Update DefaultSessionBasePath to /etc/iam/sessions (was /seaweedfs/iam/sessions)
- Update DefaultPolicyBasePath to /etc/iam/policies (was /seaweedfs/iam/policies)
- Update DefaultRoleBasePath to /etc/iam/roles (was /seaweedfs/iam/roles)
- Update iam_config_distributed.json to use /etc/iam paths
- Align with existing filer configuration structure in filer_conf.go
- Follow SeaweedFS convention of storing configs under /etc/
- Add FILER_INTEGRATION.md documenting path conventions
- Maintain consistency with IamConfigDirectory = '/etc/iam'
- Enable standard filer backup/restore procedures for IAM data
- Ensure operational consistency across SeaweedFS components
- Add comprehensive constants.go with all string literals
- Replace hardcoded strings in sts_service.go, provider_factory.go, token_utils.go
- Update error messages to use consistent constants
- Standardize configuration field names and store types
- Add JWT claim constants for token handling
- Update tests to use test constants
- Improve maintainability and reduce typos
- Enhance distributed deployment consistency
- Add CONSTANTS.md documentation
All existing functionality preserved with improved type safety.
- Change JSON field from 'roles' to 'roleStore' for clarity
- Prevents confusion with the actual role definitions array
- Matches the new distributed configuration schema
This ensures the JSON configuration properly maps to the
RoleStoreConfig struct for distributed IAM deployments.
PROBLEM SOLVED:
- Roles were stored in memory per-instance, causing inconsistencies
- Sessions and policies had filer storage but roles didn't
- Multi-instance deployments had authentication failures
IMPLEMENTATION:
- Add RoleStore interface for pluggable role storage backends
- Implement FilerRoleStore using SeaweedFS filer as distributed backend
- Update IAMManager to use RoleStore instead of in-memory map
- Add role store configuration to IAM config schema
- Support both memory and filer storage for roles
NEW COMPONENTS:
- weed/iam/integration/role_store.go - Role storage interface & implementations
- weed/iam/integration/role_store_test.go - Unit tests for role storage
- test/s3/iam/iam_config_distributed.json - Sample distributed config
- test/s3/iam/DISTRIBUTED.md - Complete deployment guide
CONFIGURATION:
{
'roleStore': {
'storeType': 'filer',
'storeConfig': {
'filerAddress': 'localhost:8888',
'basePath': '/seaweedfs/iam/roles'
}
}
}
BENEFITS:
- ✅ Consistent role definitions across all S3 gateway instances
- ✅ Persistent role storage survives instance restarts
- ✅ Scales to unlimited number of gateway instances
- ✅ No session affinity required in load balancers

Supporting changes for full IAM integration:
✅ ENHANCED MOCK PROVIDERS:

- OIDC mock provider with token compatibility improvements
- Better test data separation between mock and production code
✅ IMPROVED POLICY VALIDATION:
- Trust policy validation separate from resource policies
- Enhanced policy engine test coverage

These changes provide the foundation for the integrated IAM system.
Phase 2 of Advanced IAM Development Plan - STS Implementation
✅ WHAT WAS CREATED:
- Complete STS service interface with comprehensive test coverage
- AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity (OIDC) and AssumeRoleWithCredentials (LDAP) APIs
- Session token validation and revocation functionality
- Multiple session store implementations (Memory + Filer)
- Professional AWS STS-compatible API structures
✅ TDD RED PHASE RESULTS:
- All tests compile successfully - interfaces are correct
- Basic initialization tests PASS as expected
- Feature tests FAIL with honest 'not implemented yet' errors
- Production code doesn't lie about its capabilities
📋 COMPREHENSIVE TEST COVERAGE:
- STS service initialization and configuration validation
- Role assumption with OIDC tokens (various scenarios)
- Role assumption with LDAP credentials
- Session token validation and expiration
- Session revocation and cleanup
- Mock providers for isolated testing
🎯 NEXT STEPS (GREEN Phase):
- Implement real JWT token generation and validation

This establishes the complete STS foundation with failing tests
that will guide implementation in the GREEN phase.
PROBLEM FIXED:
- LDAP provider had hardcoded test credentials ('testuser:testpass')
- Production code contained mock user data and authentication logic
- Methods returned fake test data instead of honest 'not implemented' errors
SOLUTION:
- Removed all test data and mock logic from production LDAPProvider
- Production methods now return proper 'not implemented yet' errors
- Created MockLDAPProvider with comprehensive test data isolation
- Added proper TODO comments explaining what needs real implementation
RESULTS:
- Clean separation: production code vs test utilities
- Tests fail appropriately when features aren't implemented
- Clear roadmap for implementing real LDAP integration
- Professional code that doesn't lie about capabilities
Next: Move to Phase 2 (STS implementation) of the Advanced IAM plan
WHAT WAS WRONG:
- Production code contained hardcoded test data and mock implementations
- ValidateToken() had if statements checking for 'expired_token', 'invalid_token'
- GetUserInfo() returned hardcoded mock user data
- This violates separation of concerns and clean code principles
WHAT WAS FIXED:
- Removed all test data and mock logic from production OIDC provider
- Production code now properly returns 'not implemented yet' errors
- Created MockOIDCProvider with all test data isolated
- Tests now fail appropriately when features are not implemented
RESULT:
- Clean separation between production and test code
- Production code is honest about its current implementation status
- Test failures guide development (true TDD RED/GREEN cycle)
- Foundation ready for real OIDC/JWT implementation
