Larry McCay updated KNOX-655: ----------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Pac4j Provider Client Selection from client_name Query Parameter > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KNOX-655 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-655 > Project: Apache Knox > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Server > Reporter: Larry McCay > Assignee: Jérôme Leleu > Fix For: 0.8.0 > > Attachments: knox655.patch > > > From dev@ list: > "In pac4j, we have a callback controller which uses the client_name > parameter to finish the login process and a protection filter which > protects a resource and redirects the user to the identity provider for > login. Since pac4j 1.8, most libraries using it now accept a client_name > parameter in the protection filter as well to choose the authentication > mechanism to use if the user is not authenticated. > With Knox, this feature (choosing the authentication mechanism with the > client_name parameter) is not available as this parameter is already used > to define if it's a callback or an access. This could be changed and we > could opt for a new convention, like a new pac4jCallback parameter to say > if it's a callback or not. And this way, you could choose on the fly which > authentication mechanism you want to use." -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
