Redirect to a custom page after successful login in jenkins using plugin

[swastb]

Hi all,

Im badly looking for this answer. Is it possible to redirect to a custom page after successful login in jenkins. Im able to write a custom authorization plugin. But after successful authentication there has to be an intermediate page between login page and views. Is it possible to achieve this using plugin?

I guess you could do a semi hack and implement a PluginServletFilter [1] that looks at the referrer field of the http request and if that is the login form redirect the request to your custom page.

The normal case for Jenkins is to redirect the user to whatever page it came from before going to the login form, so you’d loose that unless the filter also took a look at where the request was going.

Did you try overriding SecurityRealm.getAuthenticationGatewayUrl?
Would not be straightforward, since you would need to provide an
alternate POST destination URL that would handle ‘j_username’,
‘j_password’, and optionally ‘remember_me’ and ‘from’, but in
principle it could work.

Was able to resolve this issue with jenkins deployed in jetty or in tomcat as ROOT.war . Sorry for updating so late. Thanks a lot to Robert and Jesse. I did the following

1.  overridden getAuthenticationGatewayUrl

  @Override

public String getAuthenticationGatewayUrl() {

return "securityRealm/selectValues";

}

2. Added a new method as 

    doSelectValues(StaplerRequest req, StaplerResponse rsp,@Header("Referer") final String referer)

  {

      here redirected to my login page.. 

          // save the login userid and password in session

          if (req.getUserPrincipal() == null) {

rsp.sendRedirect("login");

return;

}

  }

3. Added own custom login.jelly where added own j_username,j_password,from as hidden variable which im populating in my Realm code with the values which came from original login page. The login.jelly post is being redirected to j_acegi_security_check. 

Is there any wrong with this approach? Because facing one issue, i,e when i deploy the jenkins.war in tomcat without renaming to ROOT.war, the browser fails with 404 error after login, it tries to reach jenkins/securityRealm/j_acegi_security_check without going to authentication. I couldn't do much on  PluginServletFilter , since not much confident on groovy script.

It was my mistake in the login page because of which issue was occurring. Resolved it. The authentication and authorization plugin is working fine. Thanks a lot !!!
