Liron Levin 67d3265c4b Docker authorization plug-in infrastructure enables extending the functionality of the Docker daemon with respect to user authorization. The infrastructure enables registering a set of external authorization plug-in. Each plug-in receives information about the user and the request and decides whether to allow or deny the request. Only in case all plug-ins allow accessing the resource the access is granted.
Each plug-in operates as a separate service, and registers with Docker
through general (plug-ins API)
[https://blog.docker.com/2015/06/extending-docker-with-plugins/]. No
Docker daemon recompilation is required in order to add / remove an
authentication plug-in. Each plug-in is notified twice for each
operation: 1) before the operation is performed and, 2) before the
response is returned to the client. The plug-ins can modify the response
that is returned to the client.

The authorization depends on the authorization effort that takes place
in parallel [https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/13697].

This is the official issue of the authorization effort:
https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/14674

(Here)[https://github.com/rhatdan/docker-rbac] you can find an open
document that discusses a default RBAC plug-in for Docker.
