public interface RepositoryService
Identity Repository Interface.
Status: public Stability: draft
This service provides repository for objects that are commonly found in identity management deployments. It is used for storage and retrieval of objects. It also supports modifications (relative changes), searching and basic coordination.
Supported object types:
Identity repository may add some kind of basic logic in addition to a pure storage of data. E.g. it may check referential consistency, validate schema, etc.
The implementation may store the objects and properties in any suitable way and it is not required to check any schema beyond the basic common schema structures. However, the implementation MAY be able to check additional schema definitions, e.g. to check for mandatory and allowed properties and property types. This may be either explicit (e.g. implementation checking against provided XML schema) or implicit, conforming to the constraints of the underlying storage (e.g. LDAP schema enforced by underlying directory server). One way or another, the implementation may fail to store the objects that violate the schema. The method how the schemas are "loaded" to the implementation is not defined by this interface. This interface even cannot "reveal" the schema to its users (at least not now). Therefore clients of this interface must be prepared to handle schema violation errors.
The implementation is not required to index the data or provide any other optimizations. This depends on the specific implementation, its configuration and the underlying storage system. Qualitative constraints (such as performance) are NOT defined by this interface definition.
operations should be named as <operation><objectType> e.g. addUser, modifyAccount, searchObjects. The operations that returns single object instance or works on single object should be named in singular (e.g. addUser). The operation that return multiple instances should be named in plural (e.g. listObjects). Operations names should be unified as well:
The definition of this interface is somehow "fuzzy" at places. E.g. allowing schema-aware implementation but not mandating it, recommending to remove duplicates, but tolerating them, etc. The reason for this is to have better fit to the underlying storage mechanisms and therefore more efficient and simpler implementation. It may complicate the clients if the code needs to be generic and fit each and every implementation of this interface. However, such code will be quite rare. Most of the custom code will be developed to work on a specific storage (e.g. Oracle DB or LDAP) and therefore can be made slightly implementation-specific. Changing the storage in a running IDM system is extremely unlikely.

<T extends ObjectType> PrismObject<T> getObject(java.lang.Class<T> type, java.lang.String oid, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectNotFoundException, SchemaException
oid
- OID of the object to getparentResult
- parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectNotFoundException
- requested object does not exist
SchemaException
- error dealing with storage schema
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong OID format, etc.<T extends ObjectType> java.lang.String addObject(PrismObject<T> object, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectAlreadyExistsException, SchemaException
Add new object.
The OID provided in the input message may be empty. In that case the OID will be assigned by the implementation of this method and it will be provided as return value.
This operation should fail if such object already exists (if object with the provided OID already exists).
The operation may fail if provided OID is in an unusable format for the storage. Generating own OIDs and providing them to this method is not recommended for normal operation.
Should be atomic. Should not allow creation of two objects with the same OID (even if created in parallel).
The operation may fail if the object to be created does not conform to the underlying schema of the storage system or the schema enforced by the implementation.
Note: no need for explicit type parameter here. The object parameter contains the information.
object
- object to createparentResult
- parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectAlreadyExistsException
- object with specified identifiers already exists, cannot add
SchemaException
- error dealing with storage schema, e.g. schema violation
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong OID format, etc.<T extends ObjectType> java.util.List<PrismObject<T>> searchObjects(java.lang.Class<T> type, ObjectQuery query, OperationResult parentResult) throws SchemaException
Search for objects in the repository.
If no search criteria specified, list objects of specified type is returned.
Searches through all object types. Returns a list of objects that match search criteria.
Returns empty list if object type is correct but there are no objects of that type. The ordering of the results is not significant and may be arbitrary unless sorting in the paging is used.
Should fail if object type is wrong. Should fail if unknown property is specified in the query.
query
- search querypaging
- paging specification to limit operation result (optional)parentResult
- parent OperationResult (in/out)
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong object type
SchemaException
- unknown property used in search query<T extends ObjectType> int countObjects(java.lang.Class<T> type, ObjectQuery query, OperationResult parentResult) throws SchemaException
SchemaException
<T extends ObjectType> void modifyObject(java.lang.Class<T> type, java.lang.String oid, java.util.Collection<? extends ItemDelta> modifications, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectNotFoundException, SchemaException, ObjectAlreadyExistsException
Modifies object using relative change description.
Must fail if user with provided OID does not exists. Must fail if any of the described changes cannot be applied. Should be atomic.If two or more modify operations are executed in parallel, the operations should be merged. In case that the operations are in conflict (e.g. one operation adding a value and the other removing the same value), the result is not deterministic.
The operation may fail if the modified object does not conform to the underlying schema of the storage system or the schema enforced by the implementation.
TODO: optimistic locking
parentResult
- parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectNotFoundException
- specified object does not exist
SchemaException
- resulting object would violate the schema
ObjectAlreadyExistsException
- if resulting object would have name which already exists in another object of the same type
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong OID format, described change is not applicable<T extends ObjectType> void deleteObject(java.lang.Class<T> type, java.lang.String oid, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectNotFoundException
Deletes object with specified OID.
Must fail if object with specified OID does not exists. Should be atomic.
oid
- OID of object to deleteparentResult
- parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectNotFoundException
- specified object does not exist
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong OID format, described change is not applicablePrismObject<UserType> listAccountShadowOwner(java.lang.String accountOid, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectNotFoundException
Returns the User object representing owner of specified account (account shadow).
May return null if there is no owner specified for the account.
May only be called with OID of AccountShadow object.
Implements the backward "owns" association between account shadow and user. Forward association is implemented by property "account" of user object.
This is a "list" operation even though it may return at most one owner. However the operation implies searching the repository for an owner, which may be less efficient that following a direct association. Hence it is called "list" to indicate that there may be non-negligible overhead.
accountOid
- OID of account shadowparentResult
- parentResult parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectNotFoundException
- specified object does not exist
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong OID format<T extends ResourceObjectShadowType> java.util.List<PrismObject<T>> listResourceObjectShadows(java.lang.String resourceOid, java.lang.Class<T> resourceObjectShadowType, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectNotFoundException
Search for resource object shadows of a specified type that belong to the specified resource.
Returns a list of such object shadows or empty list if nothing was found.
Implements the backward "has" association between resource and resource object shadows. Forward association is implemented by property "resource" of resource object shadow.
May only be called with OID of Resource object.
resourceOid
- OID of resource definition (ResourceType)parentResult
- parentResult parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectNotFoundException
- specified object does not exist
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong OID format@Deprecated void claimTask(java.lang.String oid, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectNotFoundException, ConcurrencyException, SchemaException
Claim a task.
The task can be claimed only by a single node in the cluster. Attempt to claim an already claimed task results in an exception. The claim must be atomic. It is kind of a lock for the system.
oid
- task OIDparentResult
- parentResult parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectNotFoundException
- the task with specified OID was not found
ConcurrencyException
- attempt to claim already claimed task
SchemaException
- error dealing with storage schema
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- wrong OID format or a specified object is not a task@Deprecated void releaseTask(java.lang.String oid, OperationResult parentResult) throws ObjectNotFoundException, SchemaException
Release a claimed task.
Note: Releasing a task that is not claimed is not an error. Warning should be logged, but this should not throw any exception.
oid
- task OIDparentResult
- parentResult parent OperationResult (in/out)
ObjectNotFoundException
- the task with specified OID was not found
SchemaException
- error dealing with storage schema
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
