We have a cron job (perl script) on our CAS servers that grabs an RSS feed of our IT alerts as well as a couple of marketing messages and images, and parses them into html fragments that are written to local files. These files are incorporated into the login page template via jsp includes.
This process runs every 5 minutes. If there is an error connecting to the feeds, the previously cached version of the files are left untouched. This allows our marketing department to post content to defined sections of our login page via the normal publishing process in our Drupal CMS without having to touch the CAS application itself. - Isaac Stefanek > > > *From:* HURTEVENT VINCENT [mailto:[email protected]] > *Sent:* Thursday, November 14, 2013 10:49 AM > *To:* [email protected] > *Subject:* [cas-user] RE : Notifications > > > > RSS feeds, > > > > > > > ------------------------------ > > *De :* HURTEVENT VINCENT > *Date d'envoi :* jeudi 14 novembre 2013 16:48 > *À :* [email protected] > *Objet :* RE : Notifications > > Hi, > > > > we have the same interest in displaying messages or news on CAS login view > and we're thinking about a Javascript code which fetchs feeds from our main > institutionnal CMS. > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------ > > *De :* Steve Cook [[email protected]] > *Date d'envoi :* jeudi 14 novembre 2013 16:42 > *À :* [email protected] > *Objet :* [cas-user] Notifications > > Does anyone have a solution for displaying messages on the CAS login > screen.
