How can I configure security per node in Corda using Gradle?

Question

I want to add the security property to my node configuration using Gradle. I'm trying to do something like the below:

node {
name "O=Bank_A,L=New York,C=US"
p2pPort 10005
rpcSettings {
address("localhost:10006")
adminAddress("localhost:10046")
}
h2Port 9005
cordapps = [
"$project.group:bank-abc:$project.version",
"$project.group:shared-contracts-states:$project.version",
"$corda_release_group:corda-finance:$corda_release_version"
]

security = {
   authService = {
      dataSource = {
         type = "DB"
         passwordEncryption = "SHIRO_1_CRYPT"
         connection = {
             jdbcUrl = "jdbc:h2:tcp://10.0.75.1:9014/node"
             username = "some user"
             password = "some pass"
             driverClassName = "org.h2.Driver"
             }
          }
       }
    }
}

when I execute gradlew deployNodes. I get the below error:

• What went wrong:

A problem occurred evaluating root project 'tbs-term-reciprocal-dapp'.

Could not set unknown property 'security' for object of type net.corda.plugins.Node.

In order to add security config, you need to use extraConfig within your node's Gradle script.

Taking your example, the extraConfig will look like this:

extraConfig = [
    security : [
        authService : [
            dataSource : [
                type: "DB",
                passwordEncryption: "SHIRO_1_CRYPT",
                connection : [
                    jdbcUrl: "jdbc:h2:tcp://10.0.75.1:9014/node",
                    username: "sa",
                    password: "",
                    driverClassName: "org.h2.Driver"
                ]
            ]
        ]
    ]
]
