Chris,

Your work on this front is greatly appreciated, thank you!  I’ll dig into what you’ve done and see if I can extend it to cover get-by-identifier and search.  If we reach a point where my questions to you are taking more time than you doing it yourself, we’ll re-assess ;-)

          Regards,    —Keith

Subject: WS source adapter

I was asked by Keith to help with a WS subject source adapter.  I did a sample implementation for getting a subject by id

 

https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-1029

 

Keith, maybe you can work in that github project to finish the implementation?  J  Or if not, let me know how the get by identifier and search will work and I can work on it some more…

 

https://github.com/Internet2/grouper/tree/master/grouper-misc/wsSourceAdapter

 

The example is in the POC

 

/**

* ws sample source adapter

*/

publicclass WsSourceAdapterPoc {

 

  /**

   *

   * @param args

   */

  publicstaticvoid main(String[] args) {

 

    Subject subject = SourceManager.getInstance().getSource("ws").getSubject("urn:uuid:61c8922b-2d23-4fba-9bce-5f1dde6decf7", true);

   

    System.out.println("id: " + subject.getId());

    System.out.println("name: " + subject.getName());

    System.out.println("description: " + subject.getDescription());

    System.out.println("email: " + subject.getAttributeValue("email"));

   

  }

}

 

id: urn:uuid:61c8922b-2d23-4fba-9bce-5f1dde6decf7

to use this, checkout the project and adjust the sources.xml for your env.

 

specifically change this to the real url:

 

    <init-param>

      <param-name>baseUrl</param-name>

      <param-value>http://somehost.whatever.org/bsp/</param-value>

    </init-param>

 

Note, the initial implementation only as get subejct by id, not identifier or search

 

Note, this is somewhat generic (xml only right now), you can use xpath to configure:

 

  <sourceadapterClass="edu.internet2.middleware.grouperWsSourceAdapter.WsSourceAdapter">

    <id>ws</id>

    <name>WS Source Adapter</name>

    <type>person</type>

   

    <init-param>

      <param-name>baseUrl</param-name>

      <param-value>http://somehost.whatever.org/bsp/</param-value>

    </init-param>

   

    <!--  http://somehost.whatever.org/bsp/contacts/urn:uuid:61c8922b-2d23-4fba-9bce-5f1dde6decf7 -->

    <!--  you can substitute $baseUrl$ for the base url, and $id$ for the id to search for -->

    <init-param>

      <param-name>searchByIdUrl</param-name>

      <param-value>$baseUrl$/contacts/$id$</param-value>

    </init-param>
