[daisy] Custom AuthenticationScheme

[Kevin]

Hi,

I've read the daisy docs about custom authentication schemes, but I'm
having difficulty deploying my code. I've followed the LDAP code, but
it doesn't appear work. Here is what I've done:

I added a class SimpleBluepagesAuthenticationFactory which extends
AbstractAuthenticationFactory and implements Configurable.

I added a class SimpleBluepagesAuthenticationScheme which implements
AuthenticationScheme.

I built a JAR with those classes as well as a BLOCK-INF directory and
the following block.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<container name="bluepages">

  <component name="bluepagesLdap"
class="com.ibm.daisy.authentication.impl.BluepagesAuthenticationFactory">
    <configuration>
    </configuration>
  </component>

  <component name="bluepagesSimple"
class="com.ibm.daisy.authentication.impl.SimpleBluepagesAuthenticationFactory">
    <configuration>
    </configuration>
  </component>

  <classloader>
    <classpath>
      <repository>
        <resource id="ibm:ibm_bluepages_authentication" version="1.0"/>
      </repository>
    </classpath>
  </classloader>
</container>

I exported this JAR to \repository\server\DAISY_MERLIN_REPO\daisy\jars\

I added the following into myconfig.xml:

  <target path="/daisy/repository/authentication/bluepagesSimple">
    <configuration>
      <scheme name="bluepagesSimple" description="Simple Bluepages
authentication">
        <cache enabled="true" maxCacheSize="3000" maxCacheDuration="1800000"/>
        <autoCreateUser>
          <roles>
            <role>User</role>
          </roles>
          <defaultRole>User</defaultRole>
          <updateableByUser>true</updateableByUser>
        </autoCreateUser>
      </scheme>
    </configuration>
  </target>

Then I updated this element in myconfig.xml:

  <target path="/daisy/repository/authentication/authenticator">
    <configuration>
      <!-- Indicates which authentication scheme to use, if any, to
automatically create new users. -->
      <authenticationSchemeForUserCreation>bluepagesSimple</authenticationSchemeForUserCreation>
    </configuration>
  </target>

I added a System.out.println in all of the methods of my
SimpleBluepagesAuthenticationFactory, but I do not see the output
anywhere.

The first question is: where would a System.out.println go? Would it
go to the console that start-repository was started under or would it
go to the logs directory under \repository\server\logs, or somewhere
else? I will need to know this for debugging in the future once I get
this installation to work.

Second question is: did I do everything required or did I miss a step?

Thanks!
Kevin
