[jira] [Commented] (SHINDIG-1636) Create a KeyProvider to provide an encryption key to the SecurityToken workflow

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1636?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13126072#comment-13126072 ]

Review request for Ryan Baxter, Dan Dumont and Jesse Ciancetta.


Summary
-------

Currently, org.apache.shindig.auth.BlobCrypterSecurityTokenCodec.loadContainers(ContainerConfig, Collection<String>, Map<String, BlobCrypter>, Map<String, String>) reads an encryption key from a keyfile to instantiate the BlobCrypter. The keyfile is defined in the container.js. An improvement to this behavior would be to provide an injectable KeyProvider class that can return the key. This would allow the key to reside anywhere instead of in a static keyfile. 

Initial review to Dan, Ryan, and Jesse.  Once we've decided that this seems like a rational approach, I'll add the dev list.


This addresses bug SHINDIG-1636.

Testing
-------

Updated and ran existing JUnits.  
Created new JUnits for the new KeyFileKeyProvider.  
Performed manual functional tests with encrypted security tokens in the sample common container.


Thanks,

Stanton
