Custom WebFlow example

[spfma...@e.mail.fr]

Hi,

 

Can someone show me some custom WebFlow source code ? I don't really know where to start.

 

What I am trying to achieve : mixed mode SPNEGO works fine, but I had some complaints because of the popup appearing with some browsers when CAS is accessed from the outside world.

It's fine withing our corporate networks, because most of the clients belong to an AD domain. 

 

So I would like to let the SPNEGO occur on those selected networks, and immediately send the login form to visitors.

 

Regards

Hi,

 

Thanks for your answer.

 

I have already read those resources (actually https://apereo.github.io/cas/6.4.x/webflow/Webflow-Customization-Extensions.html as I am working on a 6.4 instance), but they haven't helped me so far.

 

Most of the code is "skeleton" wihtout any implementation. Or there are only parts about different elements but no complete working example.

I am not even able to find where and how the default webflow is implemented (I guess it is sourcecode now, and no more xml webflow definition file).

 

As a reference, I have a working "login-webflow.xml" coming from the running CAS 3.5.3 instance we are currently using, which implements the required webflow but I definitely don't undestrand how to "translate" this into Java code.

I have also enabled the "springWebflow" endpoint, it gives plenty of informations, but how to use them ?

There are three main classes that you create (I just happen to be looking at login interrupt right now):

action: https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/support/cas-server-support-interrupt-webflow/src/main/java/org/apereo/cas/interrupt/webflow/actions/InquireInterruptAction.java

configuration:https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/support/cas-server-support-interrupt-webflow/src/main/java/org/apereo/cas/config/CasInterruptWebflowConfiguration.java

configurer: https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/support/cas-server-support-interrupt-webflow/src/main/java/org/apereo/cas/interrupt/webflow/InterruptWebflowConfigurer.java

The constants used are in https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/api/cas-server-core-api-webflow/src/main/java/org/apereo/cas/web/flow/CasWebflowConstants.java

If you have  properties, create a class and reference it in configuration.

Here is  a gist to print the web flow.  Ignore insertIntoFlow, I  created it before cas had support methods (or I  did not  know  they  existed).

Hi,

Thanks a lot for these elements, I would never have found them by myself !

I was only able to reach this page, totally mistakenly : https://programmer.group/cas-single-sign-on-customize-the-login-interface-and-form-information.html

So now I will need to study this deeply, seems there is a lot of work ...

I just learned there is built in mechanism for custom properties, see https://fawnoos.com/2018/05/04/cas-custom-properties/

One less class to create ;-)
