Now that i do it, seems so simple. The trick is that the Principals are
exposed as Group and Role principals from the karaf boot module.
Maybe an example of how to do something like that would be helpful on the site.
I’d be more than happy to give an example or update it myself somewhere:
Subject subject = new Subject();
LoginContext loginContext = new LoginContext(karafRealm, subject, new
CallbackHandler() {
@Override
public void handle(Callback[] callbacks) throws IOException,
UnsupportedCallbackException {
for (Callback callback : callbacks) {
if (callback instanceof NameCallback) {
((NameCallback) callback).setName(userName);
}
if (callback instanceof PasswordCallback) {
((PasswordCallback)
callback).setPassword(password).toCharArray());
}
}
}
});
loginContext.login();
then you can say something like:
public boolean isUserInGroup(String g) {
for (GroupPrincipal principal :
subject.getPrincipals(GroupPrincipal.class)) {
if (principal.getName().equals(g)) return true;
}
return false;
}
public boolean isUserInRole(String s) {
for (RolePrincipal principal : subject.getPrincipals(RolePrincipal.class)) {
if (principal.getName().equals(s)) return true;
}
return false;
}
Great product, Karaf! Love it, thanks!
