Thank you Francesco.
I'm trying to accomplish what you say, however I'm having two issues
at the moment:
1. I log in to syncope-console/ as admin, click on Types ->
AnyTypeClasses -> New AnyTypeClass but I find no schema to add
because all lists are empty.
Of course, you need first to create new schemas that are not assigned
yet to any AnyTypeClass.
1. I was able to create a connector in Topology -> connid -> Add New
Connector, but when I try to create a resource for that connector
it shows this error message: InvalidExternalResource. JDBC Driver
is not found on classpath.
This happens because you are likely attempting to create a DBTable or
ScriptedSQL connector for a DBMS (MySQL / MariaDB? PostgreSQL? other?),
for which you'll need to include the related JDBC driver.
Since it seems you're running the Maven project, just add the related
dependency to core/pom.xml (right before the first </dependencies>
occurrence):
<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>5.1.42</version>
</dependency>
for MySQL, or
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mariadb.jdbc</groupId>
<artifactId>mariadb-java-client</artifactId>
<version>1.6.1</version>
</dependency>
for MariaDB, and so on.
I created my project with maven archetype and run it with
mvn -P embedded,all
Any clue of what I'm doing wrong here?
Your help is very appreciated.
Sergio

Hi,
does anyone know about any easy to follow Syncope tutorials or
documentation?
I have been reading the reference guide
<http://syncope.apache.org/docs/reference-guide.html> but I find it
hard to follow.
This is what I need to do: Synchronize db2db fields, web service to
web service and database fields to web service and vice versa.
Hi Sergio, and welcome to Apache Syncope!
We don't have much "from 0 to ready" tutorials out there; you might
want to read this post by Colm about pulling users from LDAP:
http://coheigea.blogspot.it/2016/08/pulling-users-and-groups-from-ldap-into.html
Also, someone started a primer a while ago
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SYNCOPE/Apache+Syncope+2.0+Primer
but it's in the very early stages.
At a high level, for your own use case you'll need to:
1. define all the plain schemas you want to model for the Internal Storage
2. create one or more Connectors
3. for each Connector, create one or more External Resource where you
define the mapping between Internal Storage's schemas and External
Resource's attributes
4. for each Resource you want to pull users from, create a Pull Task
I'd suggest to start with one Connector / Resource (maybe for the DB
you want to pull users from) and then proceed incrementally.
If the users you want to pull from the external DB fit in a single
table, you can use the DBTable connector, otherwise you'll need the
ScriptedSQL, which also requires to code / adjust some Groovy scripts
to work.
Maybe it's also an idea for you to start with the Standalone
Distribution, which is full of test data, and look at how things are
configured there.
HTH
Regards.
