Usage Example

generate-gizmosql-token \
  --issuer "GizmoData LLC" \
  --audience "GizmoSQL Server" \
  --subject "[e-mail]" \
  --role "admin" \
  --token-lifetime-seconds 86400 \

  --private-key-file keys/private_key.pem

Using the generated token with GizmoSQL

Server setup

In order to use the JWT generated by this package, you must start the GizmoSQL server using the public certificate associated with the private key you signed the JWT with using this utility.

Below is an example of starting the GizmoSQL server with TLS and JWT authentication enabled.

Please note - you MUST use the issuer, audience, and the public certificate that matches the private key you used to sign the JWT using this utility in order for the token to be accepted by the server.

gizmosql_server                                         \
   --database-filename data/tpch.db                     \
   --username gizmosql_user                             \
   --print-queries                                      \
   --tls tls/cert0.pem tls/cert0.key                    \
   --token-allowed-issuer "GizmoData LLC"               \
   --token-allowed-audience "GizmoSQL Server"           \
   --token-signature-verify-cert-filename tls/jwt.pem   \
   --log-format json                                    \
   --access-log off
   --log-level info

JDBC

You can use the generated token with GizmoSQL via JDBC by using "token" as the username, and putting the JWT in the password value:

jdbc:arrow-flight-sql://hostname:port?useEncryption=true&user=token&password=JWT_TOKEN_HERE&disableCertificateVerification=true

ADBC

You can use the generated token with GizmoSQL via ADBC using the adbc_driver_flightsql package as follows - if you have set the environment variable GIZMOSQL_TOKEN to the generated token:

import os

from adbc_driver_flightsql import dbapi as gizmosql, DatabaseOptions

with gizmosql.connect(uri="grpc+tls://localhost:31337",
                      db_kwargs={"username": "token",
                                 "password": os.getenv("GIZMOSQL_TOKEN", "BAD TOKEN!"),
                                 DatabaseOptions.TLS_SKIP_VERIFY.value: "true",
                                 },
                      autocommit=True
                      ) as conn:
    with conn.cursor() as cur:
        print(f"Catalog: {conn.adbc_current_catalog}")
        print(f"Schema: {conn.adbc_current_db_schema}")

        cur.execute("SELECT * FROM region")
        x = cur.fetch_arrow_table()
        print(x)

Handy development commands

Generate self-signed certificate and private key for testing purposes

There is a handy shell script (if you clone the repo) in scripts/gen-certs.sh that you can use to generate a self-signed certificate and private key for testing purposes.

scripts/gen-certs.sh

Version management

Bump the version of the application - (you must have installed from source with the [dev] extras)

bumpver update --patch
