Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["Hyzer, Chris" <>]

This one can do that, though it seems like as new subjects are added you might get conflicts down the road.  You mean group extension right?

 

Thanks

Chris

* built in hook to grouper, which is turned on when it is configured in the grouper.properties.

 * extensions in groups will be unique, and optionally you can resolve any subject to make

 * sure the extension is not a netid or whatever

 * set that with grouper.properties:

*

 * hooks.group.class = edu.internet2.middleware.grouper.hooks.examples.GroupUniqueExtensionHook

*

 * groupUniqueExtensionHook.resolveSubjectByIdOrIdentifier = true

Related question. 

 

Is there a hook or other setting to prevent someone from making a group name that matches a subject user name?

I believe this checks against the full name.  e.g. If you have a group named etc:test, then you can't have a folder named etc:test.

 

Thanks!

Thanks! That is working. I wasn't sure which grouper.properties to put it in so I added to all 3 in the grouper directory thinking that should work for api, ui and ws.

 

grouper.ui-2.3.0\dist\grouper\WEB-INF\classes

grouper.ws-2.3.0\grouper-ws\build\dist\grouper-ws\WEB-INF\classes

grouper.apiBinary-2.3.0\conf

 

 

I also noticed that it is case insensitive. Test1 can't be created when test1 exists. That is exactly what I need, thanks!

 

 

 

I had tried the link below and it didn't work. I wonder if this is related to PSP only.

Is that what you're looking for?

 

Thanks!

Subject: [grouper-users] Unique group names across folders

 

Can grouper be set to ensure uniqueness across all group names, not just ones in the same folder?

 

I searched the forum archives and I found mentions of it in older versions but they seemed to focus on psp provisioning not uniqueness in grouper. 

 

 

Thanks
