=head1 NAME
Lemonldap:NG::Portal::UserDB - Writing authentication modules for LemonLDAP::NG.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package Lemonldap::NG::Portal::UserDB::My;
use strict;
use Mouse;
# Add constants used by this module
use Lemonldap::NG::Portal::Main::Constants qw(PE_OK);
our $VERSION = '0.1';
extends 'Lemonldap::NG::Common::Module';
sub init {
...
}
sub getUser {
my ( $self, $req, %args ) = @_;
...
}
sub setSessionInfo {
my ( $self, $req ) = @_;
...
}
sub setGroups {
my ( $self, $req ) = @_;
...
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
UserDB modules are used to search a user in user database. UserDB modules are
independent objects that are instantiated by Lemonldap::NG portal. They must
provide methods described below.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 Accessors and methods provided by Lemonldap::NG::Common::Module
=over
=item p: portal object
=item conf: configuration hash (as reference)
=item logger alias for p->logger accessor
=item userLogger alias for p->userLogger accessor
=item error: alias for p->error method
=back
=head3 "Routes" management
Like any module that inherits from Lemonldap::NG::Portal::Plugin,
Lemonldap::NG::Portal::Main::Auth provides URI path functions:
=over
=item addAuthRoute: wrapper to L<Lemonldap::NG::Handler::PSGI::Try>
addAuthRoute() method
=item addUnauthRoute: wrapper to L<Lemonldap::NG::Handler::PSGI::Try>
addUnauthRoute() method
=back
Example:
sub init {
...
$self->addAuthRoute( saml => { proxy => "proxySub" }, [ 'GET', 'POST' ] );
...
}
sub proxySub {
my ( $self, $req ) = @_;
...
# This sub must return a PSGI response. Example
return [ 302, [ Location => 'http://x.y/' ], [] ];
}
This means that requests http://auth.../saml/proxy will be given to proxySub()
method.
=head2 Methods that must be provided by a UserDB module
=head3 init()
Method launched after object creation (after each configuration reload). It
must return a true value if authentication module is ready, false else.
=head3 Methods called at each request
All these methods must return a Lemonldap::NG::Portal::Main::Constants value.
They are called with one argument: a L<Lemonldap::NG::Portal::Main::Request>
object.
Note: if you want to change process() next steps, you just have to change
$req->steps array.
=head4 getUser($req,%args)
First method called to search user in database. If $args{useMail} is set then
$req->{user} contains a mail address.
=head4 setSessionInfo($req)
This method is called after authentication process. It must populate
$req->sessionInfo.
=head4 setGroups($req)
This method populates $req->{sessionInfo}->{groups} if backend is able to
provide groups I<(Like LDAP)>. Else, it juste return PE_OK.
=head1 LOGGING
Logging is provided by $self->logger and $self->userLogger. The following rules
must be applied:
=over
=item logger->debug: technical debugging messages
=item logger->info: simple technical information
=item logger->notice: technical information that could interest administrators
=item logger->warn: technical warning
=item logger->error: error that must be reported to administrator
=item userLogger->info: simple information about user's action
=item userLogger->notice: information that may be registered (auth success,...)
=item userLogger->warn: bad action of a user (auth failure). Auth/Combination
transform it to "info" when another authentication scheme is available
=item userLogger->error: bad action of a user that must be reported, (even if
another backend is available with Combination)
=back
