Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-221:
----------------------------------------
bq. Each CMIS repository could have different population, the username has
meaning only for a specific CMIS repository (it depends on the repositoryId
that could be added in the configuration).
So your pass-through authority connector would have to require you to specify
the repositoryId as part of its configuration information, even though it will
not use this value in any way. That will separate the user space and force the
MCF user to choose which user space they mean for the repository tokens.
bq. I'm not sure that I can implement this solution, but I can investigate.
The authority connector would not need to even communicate to the repository.
It would simply provide a MCF-user-specified regular-expression-based mapping
from the active directory user name to the user names used by that particular
repository, but would not involve the repository in this at all. It would
always return exactly one access token for a given user request.
Have a look at the null authority, which does almost what you need this to do.
You will need to add regular-expression-based mapping, that is all. See
ManifoldCF in Action chapter 8 for a description of how that can be done.
