OK, I'm getting a little confused, so I thought I'd ask here for pointers. I'm trying to get a CAS verson 4.0 setup going, and I was thinking of using the JSON services registry. We're using it with our current version (3.4.12), and we're happy with how it's working. I had to install a little bit of extra java and groovy code, but otherwise it was quite simple to install and configure, quite easy to use, and sufficient for our needs.
>From things I had seen on the list since I did that installation, I had gotten the impression that it had gotten even easier to install and configure, more well integrated with CAS, put into its own complete package (e.g, part of the Unicon cas-addons packages), and more functional. So it seemed like a no-brainer to use it again. And I thought it'd be very easy to find and install. But that doesn't seem to be the way things are going. For instance, when I go to this page: https://github.com/Unicon/cas-addons/ There's a NOTICE that states: ... 1.x series of cas-addons is not supported on CAS 4.x. For CAS 4.x support look for the upcoming series of micro addons libraries grouped by distinct features in upcoming months. So I follow the link for the micro addons: https://github.com/unicon-cas-addons There's no json services registry package there. But there is one for yaml, so I have a look at that: https://github.com/unicon-cas-addons/cas-addon-yaml-services-registry This one states: This library replaces cas-addons 1.x JSON ServiceRegistry and serves as an alternative to the new JSON Service Registry in CAS core version 4.1. CAS core version 4.1? Does that exist yet? I thought 4.0 was the latest. And is there a version of the JSON Service Registry that I can use with 4.0? Or perhaps I should use this YAML version -- it seems like it provides similar functionality. But how do I do that? Do I just reference it in the pom.xml in my maven overlay directory, and add a bit of config somewhere? What config, where? Thanks for any assistance with this.
