Hi Dave,
I just had made an example for that. There are probably better solutions but
here is the code (works only with Jackrabbit):
// admin session
Repository repository = new TransientRepository();
SessionImpl session = (SessionImpl) repository.login(new
SimpleCredentials("admin", "admin".toCharArray()));
// user management
UserManager userManager = session.getUserManager();
User anonymous = (User) userManager.getAuthorizable("anonymous");
User user = (User) userManager.getAuthorizable("user");
if (user == null) user = userManager.createUser("user", "user");
// right management
AccessControlManager accessControlManager =
session.getAccessControlManager();
// forbid the view of the restricted area to anonymous
String restrictedArea = "/content/restrictedarea";
AccessControlPolicyIterator restrictedPolicies =
accessControlManager.getApplicablePolicies(restrictedArea);
JackrabbitAccessControlList restrictedPolicy =
(JackrabbitAccessControlList) restrictedPolicies.nextAccessControlPolicy();
Privilege[] previewPrivileges =
accessControlManager.getSupportedPrivileges(restrictedArea);
// also possible to set a map of restrictions
restrictedPolicy.addEntry(anonymous.getPrincipal(),
previewPrivileges, false);
accessControlManager.setPolicy(restrictedArea, restrictedPolicy);
// apply the policy
session.save();
If the node "/content/restrictedarea" exists in the repository, it will
only be seen by the authentified users.
Best Regards,
Bertil Chapuis
