Hi,
1) We don't want to display/store some of the connector properties as CLEAR

Hi Antony,
you can hide a connector attribute configuring it (on the connector
configuration class) to be confidential.
For example:
@ConfigurationProperty(order = 5, confidential = true,
displayMessageKey = "PASSWORD_DISPLAY",
helpMessageKey = "PASSWORD_HELP")
public GuardedString getPassword() {
return this.password;
}
Please, consider that in this way you can solve the problem related to the "display" but
not to the "store".
I think that the connector framework doesn't give the possibility to store a
value ciphering it before.
Well, actually, this "confidential" parameter is currently ignored by
console: ResourceConnConfPanel and ConnectorModalPage rely upon the
property class for deciding whether to show the corresponding form input
as password:
if
(GUARDED_STRING.equalsIgnoreCase(property.getSchema().getType())
||
GUARDED_BYTE_ARRAY.equalsIgnoreCase(property.getSchema().getType())) {
field = new AjaxPasswordFieldPanel("panel",
label.getDefaultModelObjectAsString(), new Model());
((PasswordTextField)
field.getField()).setResetPassword(false);
required = property.getSchema().isRequired();
}
For other side, I am not sure that it's wise to render as password every
form input with "confidential == true": what about input validation in
this case?
Anyway, for Anthony's specific need, I think that he has currently no
choice but overriding the above mentioned classes.
2) We have to do the same for some user attributes as well ? Is this possible ?
You have to customize the console.
Agree,
