#978 Haxall create user?

Tyler B. Long Tue 29 Mar 2022

Using Haxall v3.1.3 and have gone through most of the docs and cannot figure out how to create a new user in the axon shell and what tag to add to force that user to authenticate using the PLAINTEXT method.

Wanting to test out some things in the Haystack HTTP /api/ resource using Postman which itself does not support other auth mechanisms easily. Appreciate the guidance.

We haven't added a function to create a user yet. But you can see the logic in HxUserUtil. In the meantime, simplest way to create new users is via the command line using hx init.

The easiest thing to do is just disable authentication which you can do with the -noAuth command line option to hx run

The -noAuth flag will work well, thanks much.
