Hello,

Yes, I need for my script GrouperShell (folder-grouper/bin/gsh.sh myscript.gsh) to search all subjects for whom the attribute ldap "ustlRole" is valued (ustlRole=*) and then attach these subjects to a group named "ustlRoletemoin".

Initially, I ask first ldap with dircontext and after, I transform each identifier received (uid) in subject Grouper (with findAll on identifier "uid") but my administrator ldap says that I ask 2 times for the same things so he doesn't agree.

So, I think use only findAll in my groupershell script to search on attribute ustlRole=* instead on uid and displayName. But for LiteUi, I need that the search for a subject (findAll too it seems ?) continue to use uid and displayName attributes to do the search.

I hope it is more clearly ?

So, if I understand what you say, it's perhaps possible if I can have 2 sources.xml différents ; one for my script and one for LiteUi ? but how ? Now, I do that but I have to modify sources.xml if I need to deploy again Grouper-API for Grouper-UI, it is not very good I think !

Thanks for your help.

Cordialement
Brigitte



Quoting Chris Hyzer
<>:

Not sure I completely understand, but findAll cannot have a parameter of where it is being called from, it is consistent. But you can have a slightly different sources.xml in your UI as opposed to WS or something else. Can you explain what you need in a different way? :)

Thanks,
Chris

Hello,

Thanks a lot for your indications : effectively, the logs show me the
asks which was ok and finally, the administrator's ldap find that the
attribute "ustlRole" was protected and my server wasn't the rights to
bind with connection ldap anonyme.

Are you using GrouperJndiSourceAdapter in sources.xml ?

<source adapterClass="edu.internet2.middleware.grouper.subj.GrouperJndiSourceAdapter"
...>

Yes

Now I have problem because if I modify the search in sources.xml for my
groupershell, the LiteUI will not find the subject correctly (because
ask on ustlRole attribute instead on uid/displayName attributes).
So, do you think it is possible to parameter somewhere for
SubjectFinder.findAll use another search defined in sources.xml (for
example, I can define another searchType named "searchUstlRole" in my
sources.xml) or to parameter LiteUI and AdminUi to use another searchType ?

Thanks a lot !
Brigitte

Search is used in SubjectFinder.findAll e.g. on the UI when you do a search for a subject...

Subject: [grouper-users] sources.xml ldap and script groupershell

Hello,

I make a script that have to populate a group (named "ustlroletemoin")
for people LDAP for whom attribute ldap "ustlRole" have a value.

So, I modify sources.xml for the search asks on ustlRole attribute (I
don't know exactly when this search is used ?):

<search>
<searchType>search</searchType>
<param>
<param-name>filter</param-name>
<param-value>
(ustlRole=%TERM%)
<--------------------------------------------------
</param-value>
</param>
<param>
<param-name>scope</param-name>
<param-value>
SUBTREE_SCOPE
</param-value>
</param>
<param>
<param-name>base</param-name>
<param-value>
ou=people,dc=univ-lille1,dc=fr
</param-value>
</param>
</search>

But I don't find a method that ask with this search ? It seems that
SubjectFinder.findAll asks only on searchSubject in sources.xml ?

Before to put "*" (!), I try this and I have no results although there
are persons who have ustlRole=IntranetTest-users :

for (Subject sujet : SubjectFinder.findAll("IntranetTest-users")) {
groupetemoin.addMember(sujet,false); nbreusersajoutes+=1; } }

result : entree and nbreuserajoutes=0

Thanks a lot !
