This major refactoring eliminates all session storage complexity and enables
true distributed operation without shared state. All session information is
now embedded directly into JWT tokens.
Key Changes:
Enhanced JWT Claims Structure:
- New STSSessionClaims struct with comprehensive session information
- Embedded role info, identity provider details, policies, and context
- Backward-compatible SessionInfo conversion methods
- Built-in validation and utility methods
Stateless Token Generator:
- Enhanced TokenGenerator with rich JWT claims support
- New GenerateJWTWithClaims method for comprehensive tokens
- Updated ValidateJWTWithClaims for full session extraction
- Maintains backward compatibility with existing methods
Completely Stateless STS Service:
- Removed SessionStore dependency entirely
- Updated all methods to be stateless JWT-only operations
- AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity embeds all session info in JWT
- AssumeRoleWithCredentials embeds all session info in JWT
- ValidateSessionToken extracts everything from JWT token
- RevokeSession now validates tokens but cannot truly revoke them
Updated Method Signatures:
- Removed filerAddress parameters from all STS methods
- Simplified AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity, AssumeRoleWithCredentials
- Simplified ValidateSessionToken, RevokeSession
- Simplified ExpireSessionForTesting
Benefits:
- True distributed compatibility without shared state
- Simplified architecture, no session storage layer
- Better performance, no database lookups
- Improved security with cryptographically signed tokens
- Perfect horizontal scaling
Notes:
- Stateless tokens cannot be revoked without blacklist
- Recommend short-lived tokens for security
- All tests updated and passing
- Backward compatibility maintained where possible
This change makes filer stores the default for all IAM components, requiring
explicit configuration only when different storage is needed.
### Changes Made:
#### Default Store Types Updated:
- STS Session Store: memory → filer (persistent sessions)
- Policy Engine: memory → filer (persistent policies)
- Role Store: memory → filer (persistent roles)
#### Code Updates:
- STSService: Default sessionStoreType now uses DefaultStoreType constant
- PolicyEngine: Default storeType changed to filer for persistence
- IAMManager: Default roleStore changed to filer for persistence
- Added DefaultStoreType constant for consistent configuration
#### Configuration Simplification:
- iam_config_distributed.json: Removed redundant filer specifications
- Only specify storeType when different from default (e.g. memory for testing)
### Benefits:
- Production-ready defaults with persistent storage
- Minimal configuration for standard deployments
- Clear intent: only specify when different from sensible defaults
- Backwards compatible: existing explicit configs continue to work
- Consistent with SeaweedFS distributed, persistent nature
This commit addresses the user feedback that configuration files should not
need to specify default paths when constants are available.
### Changes Made:
#### Configuration Simplification:
- Removed redundant basePath configurations from iam_config_distributed.json
- All stores now use constants for defaults:
* Sessions: /etc/iam/sessions (DefaultSessionBasePath)
* Policies: /etc/iam/policies (DefaultPolicyBasePath)
* Roles: /etc/iam/roles (DefaultRoleBasePath)
- Eliminated empty storeConfig objects entirely for cleaner JSON
#### Updated Store Implementations:
- FilerPolicyStore: Updated hardcoded path to use /etc/iam/policies
- FilerRoleStore: Updated hardcoded path to use /etc/iam/roles
- All stores consistently align with /etc/ filer convention
#### Runtime Filer Address Integration:
- Updated IAM manager methods to accept filerAddress parameter:
* AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity(ctx, filerAddress, request)
* AssumeRoleWithCredentials(ctx, filerAddress, request)
* IsActionAllowed(ctx, filerAddress, request)
* ExpireSessionForTesting(ctx, filerAddress, sessionToken)
- Enhanced S3IAMIntegration to store filerAddress from S3ApiServer
- Updated all test files to pass test filerAddress ('localhost:8888')
### Benefits:
- ✅ Cleaner, minimal configuration files
- ✅ Consistent use of well-defined constants for defaults
- ✅ No configuration needed for standard use cases
- ✅ Runtime filer address flexibility maintained
- ✅ Aligns with SeaweedFS /etc/ convention throughout
### Breaking Change:
- S3IAMIntegration constructor now requires filerAddress parameter
- All IAM manager methods now require filerAddress as second parameter
- Tests and middleware updated accordingly
- 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
- ✅ Production-ready distributed IAM system
This completes the distributed IAM implementation, making SeaweedFS
S3 Gateway truly scalable for production multi-instance deployments.
