How to generate password hash for mgt-users.properties

[bk_lau]

Hi :

Usually, WildFly doc advocates using add-user.bat(sh) to create user/password for WildFly managment administration.

Example : $: add-user.sh admin111 xxxxxxxx

This  process creates and stores passwords as hashes in file mgt-users.properties like so:

admin=46aa29a05516b89f799aef8e3e9cb3ae

admin1=c8049c1fdddc0d1b7b36c3f5c6eaec8d

admin111=a11b5f35cb2b6ae799916ef54062b2b1

Q: Is there any way to  add the user programmatically?( A sample code would be nice)

If not, how do I hash a password  akin to those used in add-user.bat(sh)??

Thanks,

bk

The blog post:  How to generate JBossAS7 encrypted passwords programatically « JBoss    still looks relevant for wildfly 8.2.

I tried as following:

export CLASSPATH=/PATH/TO/wildfly-8.2.0.Final/bin/client/jboss-cli-client.jar:.:

javac EncryptPassword.java

java EncryptPassword admin ManagementRealm admin@123

    clearTextPassword: admin:ManagementRealm:admin@123

    hashedPassword: 8d92c721440ab01a6d4edda91a8f0920

    If you will create user using "$JBOSS_HOME/bin/add-user.sh" script then you will see the same Hash Value of Password.
