Java EE Security API 1.0: SecurityContext

SecurityContext

In Java EE 7 or earlier versions, other specfications, such as Servelt, EJB, JAX-RS, JAX-WS, etc. have their own specific APIs to query current security context.
  • Servlet - HttpServletRequest#getUserPrincipal, HttpServletRequest#isUserInRole
  • EJB - EJBContext#getCallerPrincipal, EJBContext#isCallerInRole
  • JAX-WS - WebServiceContext#getUserPrincipal, WebServiceContext#isUserInRole
  • JAX-RS - SecurityContext#getUserPrincipal, SecurityContext#isUserInRole
  • JSF - ExternalContext#getUserPrincipal, ExternalContext#isUserInRole
  • CDI - @Inject Principal
  • WebSockets - Session#getUserPrincipal
In Java EE 8, you can use the new SecurityContext introduced in Java EE Security 1.0 instead.
A default implementation should be available at runime, you can inject it in CDI beans.
@Inject SecurityContext securityContext;
The new SecurityContext provides similiar methods with the one in other specfications.
Principal getCallerPrincipal();
<T extends Principal> Set<T> getPrincipalsByType(Class<T> pType);
boolean isCallerInRole(String role);
The new SecurityContext allow you create own Principal instead of the default one, getPrincipalsByType can be used to fetch it.
Beside these methods.
It also provides,
  • boolean hasAccessToWebResource(String resource, String... methods) to check the caller has permission to access some web resources.
  • AuthenticationStatus authenticate(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, AuthenticationParameters parameters); perform a manual authentication flow.
Grab the source codes from my github account, and have a try.

Introduction This sample is a Blog application which has the same features with the official CakePHP Blog tutorial, the difference is AngularJS was used as frontend solution, and CakePHP was only use for building backend RESR API. Technologies AngularJS   is a popular JS framework in these days, brought by Google. In this example application, AngularJS and Bootstrap are used to implement the frontend pages. CakePHP   is one of the most popular PHP frameworks in the world. CakePHP is used as the backend REST API producer. MySQL   is used as the database in this sample application.
