    • Method Detail

      • deleteByLoginName

        void deleteByLoginName​(java.lang.String loginName)
                throws NoSuchPrincipalException,
                       WikiSecurityException
        Looks up and deletes the first UserProfile in the user database that matches a profile having a given login name. If the user database does not contain a user with a matching attribute, throws a NoSuchPrincipalException. This method is intended to be atomic; results cannot be partially committed. If the commit fails, it should roll back its state appropriately. Implementing classes that persist to the file system may wish to make this method synchronized.
        Parameters:
        loginName - the login name of the user profile that shall be deleted
        Throws:
        NoSuchPrincipalException
        WikiSecurityException

      • getPrincipals

        java.security.Principal[] getPrincipals​(java.lang.String identifier)
                                 throws NoSuchPrincipalException

        Looks up the Principals representing a user from the user database. These are defined as a set of Principals manufactured from the login name, full name, and wiki name. The order of the Principals returned is not significant. If the user database does not contain a user with the supplied identifier, throws a NoSuchPrincipalException.

        Note that if an implememtation wishes to mark one of the returned Principals as representing the user's common name, it should instantiate this Principal using WikiPrincipal(String, String) with the type parameter set to WikiPrincipal.WIKI_NAME. The method Session.getUserPrincipal() will return this principal as the "primary" principal. Note that this method can also be used to mark a WikiPrincipal as a login name or a wiki name.

        Parameters:
        identifier - the name of the user to retrieve; this corresponds to value returned by the user profile's UserProfile.getLoginName() method.
        Returns:
        the array of Principals representing the user's identities
        Throws:
        NoSuchPrincipalException - If the user database does not contain user with the supplied identifier

      • getWikiNames

        java.security.Principal[] getWikiNames()
                                throws WikiSecurityException
        Returns all WikiNames that are stored in the UserDatabase as an array of Principal objects. If the database does not contain any profiles, this method will return a zero-length array.
        Returns:
        the WikiNames
        Throws:
        WikiSecurityException

      • find

        UserProfile find​(java.lang.String index)
          throws NoSuchPrincipalException
        Looks up and returns the first UserProfile in the user database that whose login name, full name, or wiki name matches the supplied string. This method provides a "forgiving" search algorithm for resolving Principal names when the exact profile attribute that supplied the name is unknown.
        Parameters:
        index - the login name, full name, or wiki name
        Throws:
        NoSuchPrincipalException

      • rename

        void rename​(java.lang.String loginName,
            java.lang.String newName)
     throws NoSuchPrincipalException,
            DuplicateUserException,
            WikiSecurityException

        Renames a UserProfile in the user database by changing the profile's login name. Because the login name is the profile's unique identifier, implementations should verify that the identifier is "safe" to change before actually changing it. Specifically: the profile with the supplied login name must already exist, and the proposed new name must not be in use by another profile.

        This method is intended to be atomic; results cannot be partially committed. If the commit fails, it should roll back its state appropriately. Implementing classes that persist to the file system may wish to make this method synchronized.

        Parameters:
        loginName - the existing login name for the profile
        newName - the proposed new login name
        Throws:
        NoSuchPrincipalException - if the user profile identified by loginName does not exist
        DuplicateUserException - if another user profile with the proposed new login name already exists
        WikiSecurityException - if the profile cannot be renamed for any reason, such as an I/O error, database connection failure or lack of support for renames.

      • save

        void save​(UserProfile profile)
   throws WikiSecurityException

        Saves a UserProfileto the user database, overwriting the existing profile if it exists. The user name under which the profile should be saved is returned by the supplied profile's UserProfile.getLoginName() method.

        The database implementation is responsible for detecting potential duplicate user profiles; specifically, the login name, wiki name, and full name must be unique. The implementation is not required to check for validity of passwords or e-mail addresses. Special case: if the profile already exists and the password is null, it should retain its previous value, rather than being set to null.

        Implementations are required to time-stamp the creation or modification fields of the UserProfile./p>

        This method is intended to be atomic; results cannot be partially committed. If the commit fails, it should roll back its state appropriately. Implementing classes that persist to the file system may wish to make this method synchronized.

        Parameters:
        profile - the user profile to save
        Throws:
        WikiSecurityException - if the profile cannot be saved

      • validatePassword

        boolean validatePassword​(java.lang.String loginName,
                         java.lang.String password)
        Determines whether a supplied user password is valid, given a login name and password. It is up to the implementing class to determine how the comparison should be made. For example, the password might be hashed before comparing it to the value persisted in the back-end data store.
        Parameters:
        loginName - the login name
        password - the password
        Returns:
        true if the password is valid, false otherwise
