> I’m using ManifoldCF 2.3 with Solr 5.4.1 and the Velocity templating engine. I needed to do searches with ACLs enabled and installed the plugin. Unfortunately it is not possible to use the login information provided by Jetty in the Solr plugin.
> As of Solr 5.3 it is possible to extract the authenticated user from the SolrQueryRequest object: http://lucene.apache.org/solr/5_3_0/solr-core/org/apache/solr/request/SolrQueryRequest.html#getUserPrincipal(). I added these lines to the code in org.apache.solr.mcf.ManifoldCFSearchComponent before the evaluation of parameters for authenticated user name:
> {code}
>     String authDomain = (String)args.get("AuthDomain");
>     if (rb.req.getUserPrincipal() != null) {
>                 domainMap.put("", rb.req.getUserPrincipal().getName() + ((authDomain == null) ? "" : "@" + authDomain));
>     }
>     else {
>       // Get the authenticated user name from the parameters
> {code}
> I also needed an additional setting “authDomain” in the search component configuration (solrconfig.xml). Now I can use Velocity even for documents with ACLs :o)
