[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-3172) Add GeoXACML Support

Add GeoXACML Support
--------------------

                 Key: GEOS-3172
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3172
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Security
    Affects Versions: 2.0.x
            Reporter: Christian Mueller
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
         Attachments: web.xml.patch

Adding GeoXACML support to Geoserver in src/community/geoxacml

Status quo:

1) GeoXACML specification is implemented (including a test suite). This part should be moved to geotools later.

2) A Dispatcher Servlet (http://localhost:8080/geoserver/geoxacml) waits for GeoXACML requests and gives responses (HTTP POST only)
Geoserver can act as a Policy Decision Point. Build profile is "web2"

3) GeoXACML Repository implementation using GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR/geoxacml

TODOs:

a) Before running a "mvn clean install", the attached patch must be applied.
b) It would be a good idea to create a subdir geoxacml in the geoserver data dir

A good starting point for looking at the code is:
GeoXACMLPDPController and GeoXACMLPDPControllerTest

Next Steps:

A good idea would be to test how we can implement the current security in GeoXACML.
