Method Detail

getAccessControlManager

AccessControlManager getAccessControlManager()

Return the Access Control Manager

Returns:

AccessControlManager

getAuthManager

AuthManager getAuthManager()

Return the Authentication Manager

Returns:

AuthManager

getRoleManager

RolesManager getRoleManager()

Return the Role Manager

Returns:

RolesManager

getRolesList

String[] getRolesList(JsonSessionState session,
                      User user)

Get the list of roles possessed by the current user.

Parameters:

user - The user object of the current user

Returns:

String[] A list of roles

getUser

User getUser(JsonSessionState session,
             String username,
             String source)
             throws AuthenticationException

Retrieve the details of a user by username

Parameters:

username - The username of a user to retrieve

source - The authentication source if known

Returns:

User The user requested

Throws:

AuthenticationException - if any errors occur

logout

void logout(JsonSessionState session,
            User user)
            throws AuthenticationException

Logout the provided user

Throws:

AuthenticationException

runSsoIntegration

boolean runSsoIntegration(JsonSessionState session,
                          FormData formData)

Wrapper method for other SSO methods provided by the security manager. If desired, the security manager can take care of the integration using the default usage pattern, rather then calling them individually.

Parameters:

session - : The session of the current request

formData - : FormData object for the current request

Returns:

boolean : True if SSO has redirected, in which case no response should be sent by Dispatch, otherwise False.

ssoInit

String ssoInit(JsonSessionState session)
               throws Exception

Initialize the SSO Service, prepare a login if required

Parameters:

session - The server session data

Throws:

Exception - if any errors occur

ssoGetRemoteLogonURL

String ssoGetRemoteLogonURL(JsonSessionState session,
                            String source)

Retrieve the login URL for redirection against a given provider.

Parameters:

String - The SSO source to use

Returns:

String The URL used by the SSO Service for logins

ssoCheckUserDetails

boolean ssoCheckUserDetails(JsonSessionState session)

Get user details from SSO connection and set them in the user session.

Returns:

boolean: Flag whether a user was actually logged in or not.

ssoBuildLogonInterface

Map<String,Map<String,String>> ssoBuildLogonInterface(JsonSessionState session)

Build a Map of Maps of on-screen string values for each SSO provider. Should be enough to generate a login interface.

Returns:

Map Containing the data structure of valid SSO interfaces.

testForSso

boolean testForSso(JsonSessionState session,
                   String resource,
                   String uri)

Given the provided resource, test whether SSO should be 'aware' of this resource. 'Aware' resources are valid return return points after SSO redirects, so the test should return false on (for examples) static resources and utilities such as atom feeds.

Parameters:

session - : The session for this request

resource - : The name of the resource being accessed

uri - : The full URI of the resource if simple matches fail

Returns:

boolean : True if SSO should be evaluated, False otherwise

testTrustToken

boolean testTrustToken(JsonSessionState session,
                       String token)

Validate the provided trust token.

Parameters:

token - : The token to validate

Returns:

boolean : True if the token is valid, False otherwise
