Originally Authored with Hackmd.io [Link](https://hackmd.io/CYBghgzATCCsCMBaAHGAZiRAWCsqIE4AjdRUZEYKCLMANmDCA===?both) MrFusion with OAuth 2.0 (Github-style)
## Current Auth Flow Originally Authored with Hackmd.io Link
### With Enterprise Web
Postgres is the source of truth for authorization credentials. OAuth 2.0 Style Authentication
Plutonium only cares if the username is passed properly and signed.
_NOTE: JWT is never generated by the database. Influx OSS just checks that it is signed with the same secret._ Assumptions: The user has created an "OAuth Application" on Github to authenticate against.

### With OSS Flow ![oauth 2.0 flow](./OauthStyleAuthentication.png)
In this example, I have the shared secret in a file on my Terminal.
_NOTE: JWT is never generated by the database. Influx OSS just checks that it is signed with the same secret._

## Desired Auth Flow with Mr Fusion using Bolt.
This describes what we'd like to see. And [here](https://gist.github.com/kfitzpatrick/bf4c178876be5aa0b7ae069707b4528e) is a quick reference implementation.
_NOTE: Bolt might initially be replaced with a flat file. Obviously, we'd like to ship with Bolt. After that the plan is to be able to store in other system such as Influx, etcd, etc…_

## Notes:
* How do we keep the Data Source passwords safe?
* Salt & Hash.
* For v1 we'll use the same salting method as Pu
