I am going to show how to integrate two impressive technologies: 1. Sencha Web Application Manager (SWAM), that is an application platform for deploying and managing web and mobile apps and 2. ForgeRock OpenDJ open-source LDAP directory server. Sencha SWAM is an enterprise software product for deploying and managing HTML 5 applications, which are accessible from Windows Desktop, iOS, Android and Windows Phone clients. Most of today's enterprises use web and mobile applications to support their business. Deployment and management of these apps easily becomes a nightmare, when considering the number of browsers, desktop…

SeaFile Storage authentication via ForgeRock OpenDJ

Welcome to this blog post. I will describe and explain how to set up own storage with file synchronization across multiple computers and platforms. Having a distributed and safe file storage is a fundamental requirement for enterprises of all sizes small, medium size or big. Seafile is nice in that it allows you to scale from small to big over time. The goal of my project was to set-up an internal storage system that will serve tens of users. All of them should be able to share their files via the storage safely and…

A simple OpenAM realm scenario

A Realm is an OpenAM concept and a feature which is used to group and organise the information and configuration parameters. OpenAM has a top level realm which contains all other, user-defined, realms. We will try here to demonstrate the realm functionality on a simple but practical scenario where realms will be used to separate administration entities. Let's imagine a hypothetical service provider company (Example.com) which has a centralised directory for all of it’s clients, and a separate branch per client: suffix: dc=example,dc=com Client1: o=client1,dc=example,dc=com Client2: o=client2,dc=example,dc=com Example.com would like to…

This is the first article in the series where we would like to focus on the integration of Red Hat Certificate System (RHCS) and ForgeRock OpenDJ. We will start with the simplest use case - using OpenDJ as a publishing directory for RHCS Certificate Authority (CA). When you are running a Certificate Authority, the certificates have to be published typically in a LDAP directory which stores user information. The scenario would be: the company has a corporate LDAP directory running on OpenDJ which stores the information about the employee and…

How to test your OpenDJ plugin

A problem you might face while extending the OpenDJ functionality with a plugin is to develop proper unit tests. OpenDJ comes with a set of tools to facilitate the testing, but since they are tightly integrated within the build framework, you might find it difficult to execute your unit tests from outside of the framework. This article will try to give you short guidelines on how to integrate and execute your tests. (more…)

Maven archetype for OpenDJ plugin development

We have previously written about the plugin development for OpenDJ based on the example-plugin.zip which comes with the binary distribution. However, as OpenDJ is evolving and slowly migrating to Maven, on the initiative of the ForgeRock team we have come up with the Maven archetype to make the plugin development easier and more developer friendly.

OpenDJ plugin development based on example-plugin

While OpenDS plugin development was fairly well documented, it has evolved with OpenDJ while available information has not. I will try here to share some of my experience which might help you save some time until the plugin API becomes stable enough to be officially documented. (more…)
