[Stratos-dev] Are we feature frozen?

[Amila Jayasekara]

Hi All,
    Swiftly went through some of the user manager tables and and user
manager code. When going through the code we found following,
When adding a user you can give set of claims to be added. There is a
parameter called "claims" in UserStoreManager.addUser method. With this you
can add claims for the user.


public void addUser(String userName, Object credential, String[] roleList,
            Map<String, String> claims, String profileName) throws
UserStoreException;

The map should contain a claim uri and a value to be added.
The claim uri for "first name" is http://wso2.org/claims/givenname. And for
last name you can use the uri http://wso2.org/claims/lastname. Number of
other claim uris are defined in UM_CLAIM table. Thus we use default profile
to store tenant admin information.


We can retreive claim attributes by calling
UserStoreManager.getUserClaimValue(String userName, String claim, String
profileName). Here the user name is the tenant admin name and claim is the
claim attribute uri. If profileName is null, it will use the default
profile.

I couldnt find the exact place where addUser method is called when creating
a tenant. But i beleive at the moment caller doesnt pass any claims to
addUser method. Also i am not quite sure why email is added as a column in
tenant table and not as a claim attribute. (Maybe because email is treated
as a special attribute in a MT environment.)

Guess we could use claim uri's to add first name last name attributes.

Hope this is helpful.

Thanks
AmilaJ
