Solved.

I had to enter my new authentication scheme in
daisyhome/services/configuration/impl/src/main/resources/DAISY-INF/sprin
g/applicationContext.xml

Subject: Custom authentication not loading its configuration thus not
adding itself to Daisy

I've started from the spnego-auth service, copied it and refactored it
to reflect the new name of the class (ShibbolethAuthenticationFactory
and ShibbolethAuthenticationScheme). It now resides in shibboleth-auth.

The issue is that it doesn't seem to be loading its configuration thus
not adding itself to Daisy. When I output the length of schemeConfs, I
get 0.

Here is myconfig.xml:

<target path="/daisy/repository/authentication/shibboleth">

<configuration>

<scheme name="shibboleth1" description="Test Shibboleth config">

<cache enabled="false" maxCacheSize="3000"
maxCacheDuration="1800000"/>

</scheme>

</configuration>

</target>

Here is my ShibbolethAuthenticationFactory.java file. Notice the
System.out line where I output the length of schemeConfs in the
configure method:

public class ShibbolethAuthenticationFactory {

private PluginRegistry pluginRegistry;

private Map<String, AuthenticationScheme> schemes = new
HashMap<String, AuthenticationScheme>();

public ShibbolethAuthenticationFactory(Configuration configuration,
PluginRegistry pluginRegistry) throws Exception {

this.pluginRegistry = pluginRegistry;

this.configure(configuration);

this.registerSchemes();

}

@PreDestroy

public void destroy() {

unregisterSchemes();

}

private void registerSchemes() throws Exception {

for (Map.Entry<String, AuthenticationScheme> entry :
schemes.entrySet()) {

pluginRegistry.addPlugin(AuthenticationScheme.class,
entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());

}

}

private void unregisterSchemes() {

for (Map.Entry<String, AuthenticationScheme> entry :
schemes.entrySet()) {

pluginRegistry.removePlugin(AuthenticationScheme.class,
entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());

}

}

private void configure(Configuration configuration) throws
ConfigurationException {

Configuration[] schemeConfs =
configuration.getChildren("scheme");

System.out.println("Number of schemes while configuring
ShibbolethAuthenticationFactory:"+schemeConfs.length);

for (Configuration schemeConf : schemeConfs) {

String name = schemeConf.getAttribute("name");

String description = schemeConf.getAttribute("description");

UserCreator userCreator =
UserCreatorFactory.createUser(schemeConf, name);

AuthenticationScheme scheme = new
ShibbolethAuthenticationScheme(name, description, userCreator);

Configuration cacheConf = schemeConf.getChild("cache");

if (cacheConf.getAttributeAsBoolean("enabled")) {

int maxCacheSize =
cacheConf.getAttributeAsInteger("maxCacheSize", 3000);

long maxCacheDuration =
cacheConf.getAttributeAsLong("maxCacheDuration", 30 * 60 * 1000); //
default: half an hour

scheme = new CachingAuthenticationScheme(scheme,
maxCacheDuration, maxCacheSize);

}

if (schemes.containsKey(name))

throw new ConfigurationException("Duplicate
authentication scheme name: " + name);

schemes.put(name, scheme);

}

}

}

At the moment, when I start my repository, here is the output of the
console:

[snip]

[main] INFO org.outerj.daisy.runtime.info - Starting container
shibboleth -
/home/me/.m2/repository/daisy/daisy-auth-shibboleth/2.4.2/daisy-auth-shi
bboleth-2.4.2.jar

Number of schemes while configuring ShibbolethAuthenticationFactory:0
