Essentially, what I want to do is trigger a login whenever an unauthenticated user visits any URL under /xmlui. FYI, I'm using Shibboleth authentication, I have the entire hostname protected, so that the user has to be authenticated before entering the site.
After reading through a lot of cocoon documentation today, it seems like I should be able to modify the sitemap.xmap file to accomplish this. The DRI has the userMeta attribute 'authenticated' that I can test against. If it's 'no,' I want to trigger a login. From looking in the sitemap.xmap, it appears that the action I want to perform is 'StartAuthentication'. How would I do this in the sitemap.xmap? The existing matching that occurs in the pipeline section of the sitemap is based URL pattern. How can I base it on a DRI element attribute? Also, when a request comes in to /xmlui/login how can I tell what services that request? I was expecting to see something similar to a <map:match pattern="/login"><map:act type="doLogin".... in the pipeline entries of the sitemap. I don't see anything even close, so what handles it? Greatly appreciate your time. -- View this message in context: http://dspace.2283337.n4.nabble.com/Monkeying-with-Authentication-and-Manakin-tp4659086.html Sent from the DSpace - Tech mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
