This is done for 1.4.

 

https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-186

 

To use this, merge your grouper.properties with the grouper.example.properties, and note the security section.  If you dont want these hooks in at all, remove all settings.  If you want to secure a type or attributes by wheel/root only, then add a wheel-only entry.  e.g. for the type "exportToLdap", add the setting:

 

security.types.exportToLdap.wheelOnly = true

 

If you want to secure by a certain group (in addition to root/wheel), then use this setting instead, e.g. for exportToLdap:

 

security.types.exportToLdap.allowOnlyGroup = etc:exportToLdapGroup

 

Note, if you change your grouper.properties while grouper is running, you will need to bounce it...

#by default, anyone with admin rights on a group can edit the types or attributes

#specify types (and related attributes) which are wheel only, or restricted to a certain group

#security.types.typeName.wheelOnly = true

security.types.grouperLoader.wheelOnly = true

 

#security.types.typeName.allowOnlyGroup = etc:someAdminGroup
