A drupal 7 module
Provides developer API for the Harvard University PIN system. Similar to single-sign-on (SSO), Harvard PIN allows anyone with a Harvard ID to access exclusive Harvard-only websites or services, based on the public-private-key based PGP, OpenPGP or GPG standard. This module handles low-level details of Harvard PIN for Drupal integration.
The module was developed for the OpenScholar Drupal profile (distribution). However, the module does not depend on OpenScholar or any non-core module, and can be used in any Drupal 7 site.
Some possible applications for this module are:
- Protected content; restrict certain nodes to only allow Harvard PIN access
- Harvard PIN user authentication; only allow users to log in with Harvard PIN.
In order to get a working PIN application on a Drupal site, you will need to:
- Install the module
- Register as a PIN2 customer
- Download and install GPG
- Create a GPG key on your server
- Import the Harvard PIN public key
- Send your public GPG key to directory_services@harvard.edu
- Configure your GPG and Harvard PIN application info at /admin/settings/pinserver
Note: This module currently only implements Harvard PIN API version 1 and version 2. There is currently no support in this module for Oracle Access Manager (Harvard PIN API version 3).
