I have XWiki and a separate app. I need to use my app permissions in XWiki.
XWiki uses security cache and asks my app for a particular permission only
once. I need to make XWiki aware about permission changes in my app.
I have several options:
1. sometimes I invalidate cache in my application. I could call xwiki api to
invalidate the whole xwiki cache when I invalidate my app cache.
2. from time to time (say, every minute) make a REST call to my app. My app
says if cache was invalidated. If it was I would like to invalidate xwiki
cache.
My questions are:
1. how to invalidate the whole cache? I implemented
CustomSecurityCacheInvalidator, but it seems like I can remove only separate
entities there via `remove` call. As I understand I have to call `suspend`
and then remove entities from the cache and then call `resume`, right? But
SecurityCache has only `get` and `remove` methods for separate entities.
2. should I create a separate `Component` for scheduler which will poll data
from my app from time to time? I could start new thread there to ask my app
on schedule and Inject CustomSecurityCacheInvalidator. Is it the right
approach?
My class is here:
@Component
@Singleton
public class CustomSecurityCacheInvalidator extends
DefaultSecurityCacheRulesInvalidator {
@Inject
private SecurityCache securityCache;
@Override
public void suspend() {
System.out.println("suspend!");
super.suspend();
//I can use securityCache here
}
@Override
public void resume() {
System.out.println("resume!");
super.resume();
}
}
