Method Detail

authenticateUser

User authenticateUser(Application application,
                    String username,
                    PasswordCredential passwordCredential)
                      throws OperationFailedException,
                             InactiveAccountException,
                             InvalidAuthenticationException,
                             ExpiredCredentialException,
                             UserNotFoundException

Will attempt to authenticate the given user against the application. The logic should start by going through directories defined in the application one by one, trying to authenticate user against each directory. When an authentication against directory is positive, the method returns the user. Otherwise, an exception indicating the reason will be thrown. In case that some of the underlying directories cannot perform the operation at the time of authentication, either by technical failures or the application not having the right permission to query the directory, as indicated by OperationFailedException being thrown, the authentication logic will skip those directories, instead relying on the operative ones, in the order defined in the application's directory mappings. However, if the user, still, cannot be authenticated against any remaining directories, we suspect one of the bad directories must have held the user account, in which case OperationFailedException, which indicates the underlying cause of the first failing directory, will be thrown from this method.

Parameters:

application - the application to authenticate against

username - the username to authenticate against

passwordCredential - the password to use for authentication

Returns:

A user if the user can successfully authenticate.

Throws:

OperationFailedException - underlying directory implementation failed to execute the operation.

ExpiredCredentialException - if the users credentials have expired

InactiveAccountException - if the users account is marked as inactive

InvalidAuthenticationException - if authentication with the provided credentials failed, or potentially the user does not exist.

UserNotFoundException

isUserAuthorised

boolean isUserAuthorised(Application application,
                       String username)

Returns true if the user is authorised to authenticate with the application. If the user could not be found, then false is returned.

For a user to have access to an application:

1. the Application must be active.
2. and either:
   • the User is stored in a directory which is associated to the Application and the "allow all to authenticate" flag is true.
   • the User is a member of a Group that is allowed to authenticate with the Application and both the User and Group are from the same RemoteDirectory.

Parameters:

application - application user is authenticating against

username - username

Returns:

true if the user is authorised to authenticate with the application, otherwise false. If the user could not be found, false will be returned.

attributeName - all attribute values for this key will be removed from the group.

Throws:

GroupNotFoundException - if the group with the supplied groupname does not exist in ANY assigned directory.

OperationFailedException - underlying directory implementation failed to execute the operation.

ApplicationPermissionException - if none of the application's associated directories are allowed to perform operations of type OperationType.UPDATE_GROUP_ATTRIBUTE.

removeGroup

void removeGroup(Application application,
               String group)
                 throws OperationFailedException,
                        GroupNotFoundException,
                        ApplicationPermissionException

Removes ALL groups from each of the application's assigned directories that are active.

If the group doesn't exist in ANY of the application's assigned directories that are active, then a GroupNotFoundException will be thrown.

If the remove operation fails on a directory because of permissioning restrictions, an INFO message is logged. If ALL directories permissions fail, a ApplicationPermissionException is thrown.

If the remove operation fails on a directory for any other reason, such as directory failure, update failure, etc., an Exception is thrown immediately.

Parameters:

application - remove from application's assigned directories.

group - the name of the group to remove.

Throws:

OperationFailedException - underlying directory implementation failed to execute the operation.

GroupNotFoundException - if group with given name does not exist in ANY assigned directory.

ApplicationPermissionException - if none of the application's associated directories are allowed to perform operations of type OperationType.DELETE_GROUP.

Returns a List matching the search criteria defined in the query for ALL of the active directories assigned to the application.

Parameters:

application - search application's assigned directories.

query - the search query.

Returns:

List group objects or List groupnames, depending on the query.

addUserToGroup

                    throws OperationFailedException,
                           UserNotFoundException,
                           GroupNotFoundException,
                           ApplicationPermissionException

Makes the primary user of the given username a direct member of the group on the directory where the primary user resides.

A user exists in one individual directory, however a group is thought to "span" all directories (users from different directories can belong to the same group). With this in mind, if the group does not exist in the User's directory (but does already exist), then this method will attempt to automatically add the group to that directory for you.

Parameters:

application - modify groups in application's assigned directories.

username - username of the user.

groupName - name of the group.

Throws:

UserNotFoundException - when the user cannot be found in ANY directory

GroupNotFoundException - when the group cannot be found in ANY directory

OperationFailedException - underlying directory implementation failed to execute the operation.

ApplicationPermissionException - if the application's directory where the primary user resides does not allow operations of type OperationType.UPDATE_GROUP or the group is readonly.

                   String childGroupName,
                   String parentGroupName)
                     throws OperationFailedException,
                            GroupNotFoundException,
                            ApplicationPermissionException,
                            InvalidMembershipException

Makes groups matching the given name (childGroupName) direct members of the group (parentGroupName) across ALL active directories.

Parameters:

application - modify groups in the application's assigned directories.

childGroupName - name of child group.

parentGroupName - name of parent group.

Throws:

GroupNotFoundException - when the parent or child group do not exist

OperationFailedException - underlying directory implementation failed to execute the operation.

ApplicationPermissionException - if we were unable to create the membership in any directory. This is based on Edit permissions, Create permissions, and whether Nested Groups is supported by the individual directories.

InvalidMembershipException - The child and parent are of different group types or would cause a circular reference.

removeUserFromGroup
