ESME-214...
Vassil,
I have been tutoring myself just a bit on stuff related to ESME-214,
container-based authentication, and would you be in a position to tell me
*exactly* what needs to be done to make this 'resolved/implemented'. I'll
go ahead and do that and submit a patch to the Jira ticket.
Dick seems to be the originator, and Ethan appears incommunicado for the
past week !

Of course, go ahead and try to assign it to yourself. There are a
couple of tasks which I've neglected to maintain in Jira lately.

Vassil,
I thought, pending Dick's spec of Container-based authentication I would
work on ESME-108 that he suggested.
I see that it is currently assigend to you. Would you or can I, assign it to
me/myself or would you like to (continue?) work on it?

Container based authentication is the idea that the container (jetty,
tomcat, etc.) is used to authenticate the user rather than using the
ESME internal (Open-ID, username-password) methods. For example, if
container authentication would be active then the user can sign on via
an external corporate single sign on mechanism and then ESME would
take the information from this system and use it as the user id.
This may be associated with the use of a corporate LDAP. You might
want to take a look at Lift's LDAP support to get an initial
impression of what is necessary.
Until I get back and do a full spec in JIRA for container-based
authentication, ESME 108 might be easier to work on

I've looked at the current implementation and it is fine. I've tested
locally. I'll close the Jira issue once I've deployed on stax.

Imtiaz,
I also agree with Ethan that it's better to have the list on the page.
This way when a user decides to do something with these pools, she
would have the information readily available. Otherwise the user will
have to display the modal dialog and remember what she needs to until
she performs one of the pool actions.

I agree that the 'My Pools and Roles' ,model dialogs should have the look
and feel of the other modal dialog(s) in Esme.
I will wait for Dick to voice his opinion on the rest before implementing
and re-submitting a patch.

Re: Fix for ESME-108 attached to Jira.
Posted by Ethan Jewett <es...@gmail.com>.
Hi Imtiaz,
I applied this locally and took a look. There are a couple of issues.
But first, thanks for working on this. It looks like there is a lot of
progress in this patch and I think most of it will be usable. I think
we all appreciate the work you have put into it. I know that I do :-)
The first issue is easy - The patch includes the fix for ESME-205 and
it shouldn't. Obviously one way to avoid this happening is to manually
specify which files to include in the diff. A better way is probably
to use a branch for this type of development. Unfortunately there
isn't really a way I'm satisfied with in SVN, and there isn't a way
we've settled on in this project, but I'd recommend branching.
The second issue is more difficult, and I'm not sure that my
preference is correct, however: My preference is that this should not
be a modal dialog at all, and instead should be inserted directly into
the "My Pools" page. The reason is that I think this is actually the
primary information that users will expect to see on the "My Pools"
page, and we should not ask them to click again to bring it up.
Perhaps the "My Pools" page should be changed to include a single list
of all pools that the user is a member of (basically what you have in
your modal dialog currently). In this list, perhaps we could have an
"Edit" button for pools in which the user has an Admin role. This
button might then trigger a modal dialog with the pool-editing
interface that currently shows up in the "My Pools" page when the user
selects a pool from the drop-down.
Was that clear? Do you agree/disagree? If it's not clear, maybe I need
to mock it up to show you what I'm thinking.
For the modal dialog itself, Can you take a look at the jQuery modal
dialogs that Dick set up? An example is when you click the "New"
button on the "My Tokens" page. I have no idea how it was done off the
top of my head. Maybe you did the same thing, but the one in your
patch looks different and we should probably use the same approach for
all modal dialogs.
Thanks,
Ethan

Hi Imtiaz,
Yup, sorry to disappear with no warning :-( I've been traveling and
had a lot less internet access than expected.
Unfortunately I can't help a lot with this one in any case, as I don't
know much about container based authentication!

Re: ESME-214...

Hi Imtiaz,
I guess that most people are on vacation in August, so it's a good
idea to write to the mailing list instead to individual developers if
you expect a fast reply.
Container-based authentication can be a daunting task if you've never
configured a container for authentication and if you're not familiar
with something like JAAS.
If you want to implement container-based authentication it will
probably be easier to look at Jetty's hash-based authentication or
Tomcat's tomcat-users.xml (sorry, don't remember exactly how the
authentication realm was called)
Good luck,
Vassil
