  4. Introduction (continued) 4

  5. Configure grouper-loader.properties • Contains SQL and LDAP connection information • Auto-add attributes • Other non-loader daemon information • XMPP • Change log consumers • Daily report • etc 5

  6. Running the loader • From command line, run all jobs:c:\temp> gsh -loader • From GSH, run one job:gsh 0% grouperSession = GrouperSession.startRootSession();gsh 1% loaderGroup = GroupFinder.findByName(grouperSession, "stem:group");gsh 2% loaderRunOneJob(loaderGroup); 6

  7. System of record group 7

  8. Ad hoc includes 8

  9. Ad hoc includes and excludes • Note: there is performance overhead associated with this configuration • Set group type to: addIncludeExclude to automatically configure this 9

  10. Simple SQL job - database config • Database can either be the Grouper registry database or another arbitrary database • If registry database, database is: "grouper", and connection information is retrieved from grouper.hibernate.properties • Any JDBC database can be used 10

  11. Tables vs. views • It might be preferable to keep the SQL query in a view and select from the view for the loader config • Then you can change the view when editing the query • If you change the configuration (not view), you might need to restart the loader process 11

  12. Simple SQL job (introduction) 12

  13. Simple SQL job • Configure the database in grouper-loader.properties (if not there already and if not the registry database/login) 13

  14. Simple SQL job (continued) • Make a view in the database which returns the subject_id and subject_source_id of users in the group • Note: subjects must be resolvable from Grouper 14

  15. Simple SQL job (continued) • Create a group in grouper, assign grouperLoader type • Assign attributes to configure loader • Restart loader 15

  16. Simple SQL job (continued) • After job runs, you can see memberships • Change memberships in the DB and UI and run job and see the results 16

  17. Set of groups SQL job (introduction) 17

  18. Set of Groups SQL job (continued) • Make a view in the database which returns the group_name, subject_id and subject_source_id of users in the group • Note: subjects must be resolvable from Grouper 18

  19. Simple SQL job (continued) • Create a group in grouper (not in provisioned folder), assign grouperLoader type • Assign attributes to configure loader, and restart loader 19
