RE: Creation of PSMLs files
First sorry david, I send it to you only at first so you'll have it twice !
De : David Sean Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
I think that perhaps you have found a new feature to add to the core.
That is, if the user doesn't have a profile, create one or
direct them to the customizer.
I (for my project needs) will implement a fully working one, cause we
already have an application that creates user, but we don't want to
completely modify it so that it creates psml, roles... so I said I'll do it
at the login, all that our other app will have to do is create a
turbine_user (or equivalent).
I saw Pierre has completed my first draw and is not so far from the solution
too, so when I'll get back to user creation in jetspeed I may have not much
to do !
Another feature that I'd like to have : CHECK that the psml retrieved is
still good... Else you have a Unable to fetch pane error (it happens when
tomcat is not properly shut down, and recently I had this error on the
anonymous pane... and noone here do log as anonymous so I don't understand
how it happened ).
This bug is clearly awful, you have to rebuild the psml at the end in
db... So I wanted something that checked if the psml was good, and if not
replace it by the default one... Or better, I'll take a look at the part
where Tomcat writes those psml (in my case I'm using dbpsml, nice work)
cause I think it should commit after checking that the psml is good or
something like that.
However, if one were extending JLoginUser and wanted to still get the
default logon behavior, wouldn't you call its doPerform first
like this:
public class MyLogin extends JLoginUser
{
public void doPerform(RunData data) throws Exception
{
super.doPerform(data);
}
Sure, that's what my own login does (also I do it at the end if there was no
trouble in my part ...), this was only a try to understand the working of
classes :)
Also take a look at the JetspeedAccessController. It is
responsible for
getting the profile.
Didn't know that one, I'll take a look.
Thx for comments,
Aurelien

Sorry to jump late on this thread but I think a clean way to proceed would be to add to the Profile interface a new method: public boolean isNew() And change the Profiler algorithm so that if it doesn't find any user PSML resource, it'll load a default PSML resource based either on group/role membership or default user and mark the profile as new. That way, the accesscontroller can check the Profile status and if is new can redirect the user to customize its profile and then save it. Would that work for you ?

RE: Creation of PSMLs files
I'd say at the creation of user : org.apache.jetspeed.services.security.turbine.TurbineUserManagement When addUser() method is called, at the end it calls addDefaultPSML(), so I'm pretty sure of what I'm saying. But I think you'd be able to create it at login, if you added the user directly in database (via another app for example), then you just have to test that the user exists, and if it hasn't a psml associated, then do the same that addDefaultPSML... for the user that has just logged in !

Aurelien, that's just what I want to do.

-Message d'origine- De : Pierre Henry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Aurelien, that's just what I want to do. I see from the TurbieUM.addDefaultPSML how to create a new PSML for a user, but how would you suggest that I test if PSML exists for this user ? I wanted to try that later, but I tried it now then :) Here's something that seems to work not so bad, if you have a TURBINE_USER but no profile associated. I didn't had group or role to this user, so the test may be incomplete but not far from solution... : I made my own login (change the JS.PR default one), attached with this mail Here's what it does correctly : user does not exist : Prints User unknown user exists and has a PSML : Prints Everything is ok, let's login (tried it with admin, turbine, anon) user exists in TURBINE_USER but has no PSML : Prints No Profile Found (had it manually in database, only in table turbine_user) Although here i didn't test the password supply (JetspeedSecurity has other methods, I took the shortest !), and I'm not sure it's the right way to do this, but it seems to work... If any dev have comments I'll take them ;) Hope this helps, Aurelien PS : If you manage to do something working with only a turbine_user (or maybe turbine_user created and its roles associated in turbine_user_group_role), I'd be very interested for the future :) MyLogin.java Description: JavaScript source -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Creation of PSMLs files
Title: RE: Creation of PSMLs files I managed to make a complete solution which automatically creates the default PSML if no PSML exists. It seems to work, with a problem that it gives the user only the user role, and the default PSML (by me) includes potlets that a simple user isn't allowed to see. And I think the code is not really elegant, and I didn't test it completely, just tried it once or twice. I extended the class TurbineAuthentication with my class PcsAuthentication (attached), in order to check if there is a profile for the user, and if there is not, create one, based on the method creatDefaultPSML from the class TurbineUserManagement. It also grants th role user. Of course a role named user has to exist, and this should be extended to maybe add other roles as well. I'd be interested in any feed back to this class. Hope it helps somebody.

RE: Creation of PSMLs files
I forgot : in order to use this class, you have to specify it in JetspeedSecurity.properties : services.PortalAuthentication.classname=ch.pcs.portal.security.services.PcsA uthentication (and comment the existing line) and the class has to be in the right directory according to the package name.

At the first user´s logon, at account´s creation or none of these ? PSML files are created at Account Creation. The default algorithm is to copy from the PSML from another account as configured in JetspeedResources.properties: # When a new user is created, this account's psml is cloned to the new account psml # Setting this account to nothing configures role-based psml as the default method for new users services.Profiler.newuser.template=turbine # Media types template to create for user.
