seam-security-external SAML2.0

[Richard Welteroth]

Hi all,

we are strongly interested in using seam-security for integration with a SAML2.0 based identity provider. As far as I can see, currently only OpenID is supported by seam-security. But I've also seen that there is some sourcecode around SAML is existing in seam-security-external. Is that part already functional but not yet documented? How would configuration take place? I've been successfully experimenting with SAML2.0 support provided by the seam 2 integration of picketlink.
Are there any concrete plans when official SAML2.0 support will be available? If not, I'd be more than thankful for hints on configuring a seam3 application with SAML2.0 based on picketlink.

Thanks and greetings
Richard

Hi guys,

anyone here with experience in Seam 3 plus SAML2.0
Still curious about ways to combine the two.

Thanks in advance
Richard

I don't think the SAML stuff is ready, so you'd have to patch it in yourself for now.

Can you give us some pointers how that could be done. We have the coarse grained websecurity working with saml picketlink but we are unclear what the best way would be to set the identity, roles and groups in seam 3 and how to use seam-security-external to parse the saml token to get the necessary information for the user. Is there an example some where.

Would we use a filter?

Thanks
