Hi Jens,

There are several options. But I personally believe that you should put the user-manager jar in to the esb lib directory and you are ready to go. If not you can write a custom assembly script to create the jar file of your mediator, which is not that easy. You may need to look at the synapse distribution assembly file (bin.xml) if you have chosen the former.

Thanks,
Ruwan

Hello Ruwan,

how can I include the usermanager-core-jar into the generated jar-file by using the pom-file? Or should I put the required libs like usermanager into the esb-lib-directory? I have tried to change the scope of the dependcy, but I don´t think that´s the right way. Maybe I should buy a book which explains maven2. Can you advise me one?

Thanks,
Jens

You have to specify the usermanager as a dependency in the pom file as follows;

<dependencies>
           <dependency>
               <groupId>org.wso2.commons.usermanager</groupId>
               <artifactId>usermanager-core</artifactId>
               <version>SNAPSHOT</version>
           </dependency>
</dependencies>

Further, you need to add the wso2-m2 repository in to the list of repositories in the pom.xml as follows;

   <repositories>
       <repository>
           <id>wso2-m2</id>
           <name>WSO2 Maven 2 Repository</name>
           <url>http://dist.wso2.org/maven2/</url>
           <releases>
               <updatePolicy>never</updatePolicy>
           </releases>
           <snapshots>
               <updatePolicy>daily</updatePolicy>
           </snapshots>
       </repository>
   </repositories>

yes, you are right- I want to build a role based authentification with caching-mechanism!

My ideas are:
- change the usermanager to provide permissions for a role/user on service and/or operation level. Maybe I can use the ressource and action column of the permissions table. - determine in the mediation which service is used by looking at the provided published wsdl or by looking at the soap-message. What do you think is better?
I think it is better to look at the soap message because publish wsdl does not guarantee the fact that a particular message is going to that service. Basically even though you publish a WSDL from the ESB point you can post any valid soap message to that proxy service.
I think I have to look which service the user wants to call, or is this a wrong approach?
yeah you are right. (or may be the operation if on the operation level)

- extract the user-crediantials of the ws-security-header and proof if he is authorized. (by looking first at the user-permissions- if they are not provided at the role-permissions) - if no security header is used, I can inspect the http-header with basic authentification. Do I have access to it from the messageContext?
Yes, you do have access to the transport headers from the synapse message context

Axis2MessageContext axis2smc = (Axis2MessageContext) synCtx;
org.apache.axis2.context.MessageContext axis2MessageCtx = axis2smc.getAxis2MessageContext(); Object headers = axis2MessageCtx.getProperty(org.apache.axis2.context.MessageContext.TRANSPORT_HEADERS);

- maybe the used mechanism can be configured by a property...
That sounds good, so that it is configurable.
- if no user-information is provided, the role based authentification cannot be used- fault back to the client...
- give back a fault if the permission for the user has not been found

Any other ideas from your side?
I think this idea is fine may be Dimuthu can add some comments on the UM side.

Thanks,
Ruwan
