Overview

Module: Core #

Various authors                                            #
                                                           #

Purpose: The barely recognisable core of acts_as_authenticated’s #

AuthenticatedSystem module, modified to work with the      #
other parts of HubSsoLib. You should include this module   #
to use its facilities.                                     #
                                                           #

History: 20-Oct-2006 (ADH): Integrated into HubSsoLib. #

Instance Method Details

Returns markup for a link that leads to Hub’s conditional login endpoint, inline-styled as a red “Log in” or green “Account” button. This can be used in page templates to avoid needing any additional images or other such resources and using pure HTML + CSS for the login indication.

JavaScript is used so that e.g. “back” button fully-cached displays by a browser will get updated with the correct login state, where needed (so long as the ‘pageshow’ event is supported). NOSCRIPT browsers use the old no-cache image fallback, which is much less efficient, but works.

#hubssolib_authorized?(action = action_name, classname = self.class) ⇒ Boolean

Check if the user is authorized to perform the current action. If calling from a helper, pass the action name and class name; otherwise by default, the current action name and ‘self.class’ will be used.

Override this method in your controllers if you want to restrict access to a different set of actions. Presently, the current user’s roles are compared against the caller’s permissions hash and the action name.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

Accesses the current user, via the DRb server if necessary. Returns a HubSsoLib::User object, or nil if none is available (this indicates that nobody is logged in, but #hubssolib_logged_in? should be used to check that, to allow for possible future more advanced logic within).

Sets the currently signed in user. Note that although this works and is maintained, it is recommended that #hubssolib_log_in gets called instead.

#hubssolib_enumerate_usersObject

WARNING: Slow.

Return an Array of HubSsoLib::User objects for all logged-in users, in an array. If a user is logged into more than one browser and thus has more than one session active, they will accordingly appear more than once in the returned data. This can also happen if a user loses key rotation and leaves an old, but not yet expired session behind when they log in anew.

In accordance with HubSsoLib::SessionFactory#enumerate_hub_session_ids documentation, a maximum of HUB_SESSION_ENUMERATION_KEY_MAX users can be returned here. If this is exceeded, an empty array is returned. If you are processing this information for display in a UI which itself requires a logged in user of some sort (which is very likely) and therefore know that at least one session does exist, you can treat an empty array as confirmation of “lots of sessions”. If you can’t be sure of at least one logged in user, then there is obvious arising ambiguity and this method does not solve it for you - it’s just “zero, or very many users”.

Users are ordered by least-recently-active first, most-recent last.

For information about performance limitations, see HubSsoLib::SessionFactory#enumerate_hub_session_ids.

#hubssolib_flash_dataObject

Return flash data for known keys, then all remaining keys, from both the cross-application and standard standard flash hashes. The returned Hash is of the form:

{ 'hub' => ...data..., 'standard' => ...data... }

…where “…data…” is itself a Hash of flash keys yielding flash values. This allows both the Hub and standard flashes to have values inside them under the same key. All keys are strings.

Flash data can be carried across the Hub session, stored in the DRb server as a result, and is thus cleared automatically if a session gets dropped. However, we also want this to work without being logged in, so in that case it uses the normal flash as a backup when writing.

#hubssolib_log_in(user) ⇒ Object

Log in the user. This is just syntax sugar for setting the current user via #hubssolib_current_user, really. You can freely use either approach according to your preferred aesthetics, but this method is preferred.

user

A valid HubSsoLib::User instance. If this has a nil value for user_id, or if user is itself nil, you’ll cause the same effect as if explicitly logging out.

#hubssolib_promote_uri_to_ssl(uri_str, host = nil) ⇒ Object

Take a URI and pass an optional host parameter. Decomposes the URI, sets the host you provide (or leaves it alone if you omit the parameter), then forces the scheme to ‘https’. Returns the result as a flat string.

#hubssolib_register_user_change_handler(app_name:, app_root:, task_name:) ⇒ Object

If an application needs to know about changes of a user e-mail address or display name (e.g. because of sync to a local relational store of users related to other application-managed resources, with therefore a desire to keep that store up to date), it can register a task to run on-change here. When a user edits their information, Hub runs through all such commands, allowing external applications to manage their own state with no need for coupled configuration or other duplication.

The registered name must be a Rake task and the application must specify its location in the filesystem so that the PWD can be changed there, in order to execute the Rake task via “bundle exec”. The task is passed the following parameters, in the specified order:

  • User’s old e-mail address

  • User’s old unique display name (as returned by #hubssolib_unique_name)

  • User’s new e-mail address (which might be the same as the old)

  • User’s old unique display name (which might be unchanged too)

This is a newer Hub interface which uses named parameters rather than positional:

app_name

Application name, e.g. “beast”; make sure this is unique.

app_root

Application’s Rails root, e.g. “/home/fred/rails/beast”.

task_name

Rake task name, e.g. “hub:update_user”.

An example invocation in “config/application.rb” might look like this:

module Foo
  class Application < Rails::Application

  require HubSsoLib::Core

    hubssolib_register_user_change_handler(
      app_name:  Rails.application.name,
      app_root:  Rails.root,
      task_name: 'hub:update_user'
    )

    config.load_defaults 8.0 # ...etc...
  end
end

#hubssolib_registered_user_change_handlersObject

Returns all change handlers registered by prior calls made to #hubssolib_register_user_change_handler. Returns a Hash, keyed by Rails application name, with values of another Hash:

  • root => Rails application root

  • task => Name of Rake task to be run

All keys are Strings.

This is usually called by the Hub application only, when it is processing a user’s request to change their information.

#hubssolib_retrieve_user_sessions(hub_user_id) ⇒ Object

WARNING: Comparatively slow.

For a given HubSsoLib::User’s user ID, return any known sessions held by the DRb server, as an Hash of session keys with HubSsoLib::Session instances as values.

Returns an empty Hash if the given ID is nil.

Note that Hub sessions can disappear at any moment, so the session keys you find in the Hash might refer to extinct sessions by the time you get to do something with them. You can still access the data, but if you were to try and ask the DRb server for that key, it’d return nil.

Sessions are ordered by least-recently-active first, most-recent last.

For information about performance limitations, see HubSsoLib::SessionFactory#retrieve_sessions_by_user_id.

#hubssolib_trusted?Boolean

Convenience method that returns true if there’s a currently logged-in Hub user that has been flagged as trusted, else - whether there is no current user, or they haven’t been flagged as trusted - returns false.

Returns:

Return a human-readable unique ID for a user. We don’t want to have e-mail addresses all over the place, but don’t want to rely on real names as unique - they aren’t. Instead, produce a composite of the user’s account database ID (which must be unique by definition) and their real name. See also hubssolib_get_name.
