baton-sql-server

baton-sql-server is a connector for Microsoft SQL Server. It communicates with the SQL Server to sync data about users, groups, server roles, databases, and database roles.

It uses go-mssqldb to connect to SQL Server. Check out https://github.com/microsoft/go-mssqldb#connection-parameters-and-dsn for more details on how to connect to your server.

Check out Baton to learn more the project in general.

Getting Started

This connector requires that you connect to your SQL Server instance with a user with the proper access to read the system tables. The following permissions are required:

  • VIEW ANY DEFINITION on the server
  • VIEW ANY DATABASE on the server
  • VIEW ANY DEFINITION on each database
  • VIEW SERVER STATE on the server
  • VIEW DATABASE STATE on each database

The following tables are read while syncing data with this connector:

  • sys.server_principals
  • sys.databases
  • sys.server_permissions
  • sys.server_role_members
  • sys.database_principals on each database
  • sys.database_role_members on each database

Data Model

baton-sql-server syncs information about the following resources:

  • Users
  • Groups
  • Server Roles
  • Databases
  • Database Roles

When fetching database permissions, the server principal backing the database principal will the resource that is granted entitlements.

Development

A docker compose file is included to easily spin up a SQL Server instance for development. To start the instance, run:

docker-compose up -d

The instance will be available at localhost:1433. The default username is sa and the default password is devP@ssw0rd.

Contributing, Support, and Issues

We started Baton because we were tired of taking screenshots and manually building spreadsheets. We welcome contributions, and ideas, no matter how small -- our goal is to make identity and permissions sprawl less painful for everyone. If you have questions, problems, or ideas: Please open a Github Issue!
