I am wondering what would be involved in creating a user in the magnolia database from an external application. I assume that the app would need to be JCR aware:
1) Is that a lot of work to implement? 2) Are users specific to Magnolia or are users defined by the JCR specification and can be created/retrieved without having to also integrate the Magnolia jars into the external application? The reason for asking is that users are created in the external app but are checked for authorisation by CAS using Spring Security. If the user does not exist in the Magnolia database then Spring Security throws an error and refuses access to magnolia by throwing an UserNotFoundException. To code around Spring is not possible as there are some custom coded Spring Security filters that need to run on every request. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Read-write-to-database-from-external-application-tp24419298p24419298.html Sent from the Magnolia - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ---------------------------------------------------------------- For list details see http://www.magnolia-cms.com/home/community/mailing-lists.html To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <[email protected]> ----------------------------------------------------------------
