Vert.x CAS Auth

This is a simple example of CAS integration with the vertx Yoke middleware. When accessing the /authservice, the app will check the session for:

  • a sessionId in the request
  • a matching sessionId in the SessionStorage
  • a auth boolean on the sessionId in the SessionStorage
  • a CAS ticket

If the sessionId is not marked as "auth" in the SessionStorage system, it will check the request for the CAS ticket. If a ticket is found its queried against the CAS server for the requested service / URI, if the ticket is not valid or does not exist, the request is redirected to CAS for authentication.

Requirements

This example requires a running CAS server, see cas-server subdirectory for a example of a very simple CAS setup which only contains a single static user:

username casuser
password Mellon

Config

{
  "main":"com.deblox.cas.CasHttpService", // main class to boot
  "casHost": "localhost", // hostname the casClient should use to reach CAS
  "casPort": 8443, // port the casClient should use
  "cas_redirectUrl": "https://localhost:8443/cas", // used in redirects, NO trails!
  "keepAlive": true, // keep connection to Cas Alive or not.
  "trustAll": true, // allows self-signed certs for DEV
  "ssl": true,
  "webroot": "static" // static dir in classpath or full OS path
}

URLS

http://localhost:3000/authservice
http://localhost:3000/openservice

Running

./gradlew run -i

SessionStorage

A simple SessionStorage is implemented as a ConcurrentMap with some basic Expiry support.

After a successful login, the sessionId is given a auth boolean to save on CAS calls in the future. This is all just POC code, and will probably leak memory, The SessionStorage class should probably put the data in CouchBase or mongo with expiry times set.
