📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Loki output plugin adds OAuth2 client-credentials authentication with basic, post, and private_key_jwt methods. It validates settings, manages the OAuth2 context, authenticates requests, retries after 401 responses, and adds runtime and integration tests.

Changes

Loki OAuth2 support

Layer / File(s) Summary
OAuth2 configuration contract
plugins/out_loki/loki.h, plugins/out_loki/loki.c
The Loki context stores OAuth2 configuration and context state. The config map exposes OAuth2 properties and applies their values and defaults.
OAuth2 validation and lifecycle
plugins/out_loki/loki.c, tests/runtime/out_loki.c
Configuration creation validates authentication methods, required credentials, and conflicting settings before creating the OAuth2 context. Runtime tests verify invalid configurations fail. Configuration destruction frees the context.
Authenticated request flow and integration tests
plugins/out_loki/loki.c, tests/integration/scenarios/out_loki/config/*, tests/integration/scenarios/out_loki/tests/test_out_loki_001.py
Payload requests use OAuth2 when enabled and invalidate tokens after 401 responses. Integration tests verify basic and private_key_jwt token requests and bearer-authenticated Loki delivery.

OAuth2 credentials can be exposed when a token endpoint is configured with HTTP. Require HTTPS before merging this authentication support.

request path using ctx->oauth2_ctx to reject configurations that enable OAuth2
alongside http_user/http_passwd or bearer_token. Return a configuration error
for these conflicting authentication modes, while preserving OAuth2-only and
non-OAuth2 authentication behavior.
- Line 1150: In the OAuth2 configuration failure path of loki_config_create,
replace the direct flb_free(ctx) cleanup with loki_config_destroy(ctx), then
clear the context before returning so all context-owned lists are released
through the normal destructor.
- Around line 1271-1273: Update flb_oauth2_create_from_config() to validate that
the configured OAuth2 token_url uses the HTTPS scheme before creating the
upstream, rejecting non-HTTPS URLs with the existing configuration-error path.
Preserve the current required token_url and client_id validation and prevent
oauth2_setup_upstream() from being reached for invalid schemes.
