== Extending the Server
|
|
|
|
The {project_name} SPI framework offers the possibility to implement or override particular built-in providers. However {project_name}
|
|
also provides capabilities to extend it's core functionalities and domain. This includes possibilities to:
|
|
|
|
* Add custom REST endpoints to the {project_name} server
|
|
* Add your own custom SPI
|
|
* Add custom JPA entities to the {project_name} data model
|
|
|
|
[[_extensions_rest]]
|
|
=== Add custom REST endpoints
|
|
|
|
This is a very powerful extension, which allows you to deploy your own REST endpoints to the {project_name} server. It enables all kinds of extensions, for example
|
|
the possibility to trigger functionality on the {project_name} server, which is not available through the default set of built-in {project_name} REST endpoints.
|
|
|
|
To add a custom REST endpoint, you need to implement the `RealmResourceProviderFactory` and `RealmResourceProvider` interfaces. `RealmResourceProvider` has one important method:
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
Object getResource();
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
which allows you to return an object, which acts as a https://jax-rs-spec.java.net/[JAX-RS Resource]. For more details, see the Javadoc and our examples.
|
|
There is a very simple example in the example distribution in `providers/rest` and there is a more advanced example in `providers/domain-extension`,
|
|
which shows how to add an authenticated REST endpoint and other functionalities like <<extensions.adoc#_extensions_spi,Adding your own SPI>>
|
|
or <<extensions.adoc#_extensions_jpa,Extending datamodel with your own JPA entities>>.
|
|
|
|
For details on how to package and deploy a custom provider, refer to the <<providers.adoc#_providers,Service Provider Interfaces>> chapter.
|
|
|
|
[[_extensions_spi]]
|
|
=== Add your own custom SPI
|
|
|
|
This is useful especially with the <<extensions.adoc#_extensions_rest,Custom REST endpoints>>. To add your own kind of SPI, you need to
|
|
implement the interface `org.keycloak.provider.Spi` and define the ID of your SPI and the `ProviderFactory` and `Provider` classes. That looks like this:
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
----
|
|
package org.keycloak.examples.domainextension.spi;
|
|
|
|
import ...
|
|
|
|
public class ExampleSpi implements Spi {
|
|
|
|
@Override
|
|
public boolean isInternal() {
|
|
return false;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
@Override
|
|
public String getName() {
|
|
return "example";
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
@Override
|
|
public Class<? extends Provider> getProviderClass() {
|
|
return ExampleService.class;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
@Override
|
|
@SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
|
|
public Class<? extends ProviderFactory> getProviderFactoryClass() {
|
|
return ExampleServiceProviderFactory.class;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
Then you need to create the file `META-INF/services/org.keycloak.provider.Spi` and add the class of your SPI to it. For example:
|
|
|
|
[source]
|
|
----
|
|
org.keycloak.examples.domainextension.spi.ExampleSpi
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
The next step is to create the interfaces `ExampleServiceProviderFactory`, which extends from `ProviderFactory` and `ExampleService`, which extends from `Provider`.
|
|
The `ExampleService` will usually contain the business methods you need for your use case. Note that the `ExampleServiceProviderFactory` instance
|
|
is always scoped per application, however `ExampleService` is scoped per-request (or more accurately per `KeycloakSession` lifecycle).
|
|
|
|
Finally you need to implement your providers in the same manner as described in the <<providers.adoc#_providers,Service Provider Interfaces>> chapter.
|
|
|
|
For more details, take a look at the example distribution at `providers/domain-extension`, which shows an Example SPI similar to the one above.
|
|
|
|
[[_extensions_jpa]]
|
|
=== Add custom JPA entities to the {project_name} data model
|
|
|
|
If the {project_name} data model does not exactly match your desired solution, or if you want to add some core functionality to {project_name},
|
|
or when you have your own REST endpoint, you might want to extend the {project_name} data model. We enable you to add your
|
|
own JPA entities to the {project_name} JPA `EntityManager` .
|
|
|
|
To add your own JPA entities, you need to implement `JpaEntityProviderFactory` and `JpaEntityProvider`. The `JpaEntityProvider`
|
|
allows you to return a list of your custom JPA entities and provide the location and id of the liquibase changelog. An example implementation can look like this:
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
----
|
|
public class ExampleJpaEntityProvider implements JpaEntityProvider {
|
|
|
|
// List of your JPA entities.
|
|
@Override
|
|
public List<Class<?>> getEntities() {
|
|
return Collections.<Class<?>>singletonList(Company.class);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// This is used to return the location of the Liquibase changelog file.
|
|
// You can return null if you don't want Liquibase to create and update the DB schema.
|
|
@Override
|
|
public String getChangelogLocation() {
|
|
return "META-INF/example-changelog.xml";
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Helper method, which will be used internally by Liquibase.
|
|
@Override
|
|
public String getFactoryId() {
|
|
return "sample";
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
In the example above, we added a single JPA entity represented by class `Company`. In the code of your REST endpoint, you can then use something like
|
|
this to retrieve `EntityManager` and call DB operations on it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
----
|
|
EntityManager em = session.getProvider(JpaConnectionProvider.class).getEntityManager();
|
|
Company myCompany = em.find(Company.class, "123");
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
The methods `getChangelogLocation` and `getFactoryId` are important to support automatic updating of your entities by Liquibase. http://www.liquibase.org/[Liquibase]
|
|
is a framework for updating the database schema, which {project_name} internally uses to create the DB schema and update the DB schema among versions. You may need to use
|
|
it as well and create a changelog for your entities. Note that versioning of your own liquibase changelog is independent
|
|
of {project_name} versions. In other words, when you update to a new {project_name} version, you are not forced to update your
|
|
schema at the same time. And vice versa, you can update your schema even without updating the {project_name} version. The Liquibase update
|
|
is always done at the server startup, so to trigger a DB update of your schema, you just need to add the new changeset to your liquibase changelog file (in the example above
|
|
it's the file `META-INF/example-changelog.xml` (which must be packed in same JAR as the JPA entities and `ExampleJpaEntityProvider`) and then restart server.
|
|
The DB schema will be automatically updated at startup.
|
|
|
|
For more details, take a look at the example distribution at example `providers/domain-extension`, which shows the `ExampleJpaEntityProvider` and `example-changelog.xml` described above.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Don't forget to always backup your database before doing any changes in the Liquibase changelog and triggering a DB update.
