Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["Hyzer, Chris" <>]

We will soon have a better mechanism for this.

When there is a list of groups loader job, we didn’t have a way to tie groups 
that were created by the loader to a loader job.  So if a group fell out of 
the source system, we didn’t know to delete it in grouper.  Orphan.  So the 
groups like is a way to query for groups that are managed by that loader job. 
 Not sure regex would work since we need a query, unless we read all groups 
in grouper to figure it out.  Anyways, we have a better solution coming soon.

We have metadata about loaded groups, and where they were loaded from, so we 
can easily manage things deleted from source systems.  This might involve 
removing memberships, deleting the group, whatever.  What do you want to do 
in this area?

Thanks
Chris

Subject: [grouper-users] grouperLoaderGroupsLike vs REGEX

Hi Grouper folks,

grouperLoaderGroupsLike is really neat.  But, I need some more capability 
than the simplicity of Like.

Has there been thought to REGEX capabilities?  I realize this is DB dependent 
but if there some common mechanism between the popular DBs used I’ll take it. 
 I didn’t see anything in source showing other possibilities.

Thoughts?
