Class CookieAuthenticationHandler

java.lang.Object
  com.jalios.jcms.authentication.AuthenticationHandler
      com.jalios.jcms.authentication.handlers.CookieAuthenticationHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

PluginComponent, Comparable<AuthenticationHandler>

public final class CookieAuthenticationHandler
extends AuthenticationHandler

Save authentification made by other handlers into cookie and use it later on to re-authenticate.

You can disable this handler by modifiying property "auth-mgr.cookie-enabled". Cookie can be disabled for admin by modifiying property "auth-mgr.allow-admin-cookie".

Method Detail

getInstance

public static final CookieAuthenticationHandler getInstance()

loadProperties

public void loadProperties()

Description copied from class: AuthenticationHandler

This method will be called by the AuthenticationManager each time the Channel properties are loaded/reloaded.
You can use it to reload properties that might have been changed.
This method is called during initialization of the AuthenticationManager

Overrides:

loadProperties in class AuthenticationHandler

login

public void login(AuthenticationContext ctxt)
           throws IOException

Description copied from class: AuthenticationHandler

Authenticate a member.
This method is invoked by the authentication chain on each request.
A typical implementation of this method would follow the following pattern :

1. Examine informations required to perform the authentication through the AuthenticationContext object (request, response, login.. etc)
2. Perform your authentication before chain invokation and set the logged Member AuthenticationContext.setLoggedMember(com.jalios.jcms.Member)
3. a) Either invoke the next entity in the chain using AuthenticationContext.doChain(),
4. b) or else skip the chain invokation and block other authentication handler of the chain (do this with caution...)
5. Perform redirection, set information/warning/error message or any other process, after chain invokation, using AuthenticationContext.

Default implementation is to invoke the next handler in the chain.

Overrides:

login in class AuthenticationHandler

Parameters:

ctxt - the AuthenticationContext used for this login

Throws:

IOException

logout

public void logout(AuthenticationContext ctxt)
            throws IOException

Description copied from class: AuthenticationHandler

This methods is called when users logout from JCMS.
It may not be called if user simply close its browser. Don't rely on this for critical operation

Default implementation is to invoke the next handler in the chain.

Overrides:

logout in class AuthenticationHandler

Parameters:

ctxt - the AuthenticationContext used for this login

Throws:

IOException

getCookieDigest

public static final String getCookieDigest(String timeStr,
                                           String password)

Returns the cookie digest (MD5) composed of concatenation of the time (in millis) and the password of the member

Parameters:

timeStr - a time as a string (e.g. String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis()))

password - the Member's password in its crypted version (e.g. member.getPassword())

Returns:

an authentication digest

checkAuthenticationFromCookie

public static final Member checkAuthenticationFromCookie(javax.servlet.http.Cookie[] cookies)

Returns the member corresponding to the member id which is contains in memberId cookie.

Parameters:

cookies - an array of cookies (request.getCookies())

Returns:

the member or null if not found

getAuthenticationCookie

public static final javax.servlet.http.Cookie getAuthenticationCookie(Member member,
                                                                      String domain,
