[CAS] Automatically updated Time-based access strategy extension to current date
Davide Malacrida
Hello everyone,
Lately we have been working on a locally deployed instance of Apereo CAS, in order to study the product a bit. We have the following doubt regarding how time-based service access strategy should be configured.
In order to implement this functionality, we have used the time-based access strategy extension, as described in the documentation (https://apereo.github.io/cas/5.2.x/installation/Configuring-Service-Access-Strategy.html#time-based). However, the documentation only described how one can set a static date and time for this policy. Instead, we wanted the attributes startingDateTime and endingDateTime to be automatically updated with the current date. In order to do this, we have created a custom script. This script is scheduled to run every day at the same hour and basically writes the values of these attributes, so that they are always updated with the current date.
We were wondering, is this the way time-based access strategy is supposed to be implemented? Is there another less custom way that should be used in order to achieve this result?
Thanks for your help,
