search/membership lists


I think I figured it out.

I first add a "virtual" attribute:

    <init-param>
        <param-name>subjectVirtualAttribute_0_nameAndId</param-name>
        <param-value>${subject.getAttributeValue('givenName')} 
${subject.getAttributeValue('sn')}, 
${subject.getAttributeValue('uid')}</param-value>
    </init-param>

Then, I can use that as the actual "Name_AttributeType":

    <init-param>
        <param-name>Name_AttributeType</param-name>
        <param-value>nameAndId</param-value>
    </init-param>

It gives me the information I want in the list.

Chris,

I see that if I set the "Name_AttributeType" to a `displayName` attribute, I 
can get the full name of an account to show up (required restarting my Tomcat 
container).
Is there some way you can put an expression in the name that combines 
attributes?  I'd like to include the user ID in the list.  E.g. the entry for 
my name should look something like:

  Carl Waldbieser - waldbiec

Can I use a JEXL expression or something?

Thanks,

Btw, by default if you have the subjectName and description mapped correctly 
you don’t have to adjust what the UI displays... it will automatically 
display the name as whats on screen and the description as the search result 
and tooltip...

Thanks
Chris

Jdbc2 has the best searching my opinion, but the jndi one does ok too.  yes, 
you need to adjust your sources.xml.  There is a 2.3 patch for a subject 
source diagnostics tester:

https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/Grouper+subject+API+diagnostics+in+UI

Otherwise you can test with GSH, just edit the file and run:

https://spaces.internet2.edu/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=14517859

grouperSession = GrouperSession.startRootSession(); 
SubjectFinder.findAll(searchString, source);
SubjectFinder.findByIdAndSource(id, source, exceptionIfNull);
SubjectFinder.findByIdentifierAndSource(identifier, source, exceptionIfNull); 
SubjectFinder.findByIdAndSource("jsmith", "jdbc", true);
SubjectFinder.findByIdOrIdentifierAndSource(idOrIdentifier, source, 
exceptionIfNull); 
SubjectFinder.findByIdOrIdentifierAndSource("jsmith", "jdbc", true);


Then look at a subject, getId(), getName(), getDescription(), and 
attributes...

Thanks
Chris

Subject: Re: Grouper UI - set subject columns in all relevant

Chris,

I take it that I need to manipulate my `sources.xml` to make this happen?
Do I need to use the JDBCC2 source, or will the LdapSourceAdapter be able to 
do this, too?

Where I am getting hung up is that I'm not entirely sure what the structure 
of the source adapters is allowed to actually look like, and what stanzas 
will be translated into something meaningful.

Also, is this something I can test in the GSH somehow, or do I need to update 
a WAR file and restart a container to test each change?

Thanks,

Subject: [grouper-users] Grouper UI - set subject columns in all relevant 
search/membership lists


What is the recommended way to add additional subject attribute columns to 
all the relevant search result and membership lists.

Currently, we are only showing the subject Identifier.  This shows up as 
"Entity name" on the membership list for a group or in the "Name" column for 
a search result.

I'd really like to show the first name, last name, and subject ID in the 
columns instead of just the subject ID.

In the detail widget for a subject, I can see these attributes, but I'd like 
to see them in the list views, too.

Thanks,
