This topic demonstrates the usage of the remote-user-mgt sample with the WSO2 Identity Server. This sample provides a means of writing a Web service client for authentication and user administration services. So this sample uses AuthenticationAdmin, RemoteUserStoreManagerService
and RemoteAuthorizationManagerService
admin services to perform different operations remotely to the Identity Server.
You can learn more about the admin services used in this sample by referring Calling Admin Services, Managing Users and Roles with APIs and Managing Permissions with APIs documents.
- Create a folder in your local machine and navigate to it using your command line.
Download the Java sample from GitHub from the link below. Follow these instructions to checkout the samples folder. Go to user-mgt/remote-user-mgt. The location of this folder (is-samples/modules/samples/user-mgt/remote-user-mgt) will be referred to as
<remote-user-mgt_HOME>
from this point onwards.Open the
<remote-user-mgt_HOME>/build.xml
file and update the ${wso2is.home} value with your IS home. Do this by modifying thewso2is.home
property in a manner similar to the following.<property name="wso2is.home" value="/Users/Sam/Documents/IS/SampleTest/wso2is-5.3.0/"/>
Update the RemoteUMSampleConstants.java file located in is-samples/modules/samples/user-mgt/remote-user-mgt/src/main/java/org/wso2/remoteum/sample with the directory that your WSO2 Identity Server instance is located. For example, the code will look similar to the following.
public static final String IS_HOME ="/Users/Sam/Documents/IS/SampleTest/wso2is-5.3.0/";
- Start the Identity Server using the start up script found in the
<IS_HOME>/bin
directory.- Use
wso2server.sh
for Linux. - Use
wso2server.bat
for Windows.
Note: Ensure that the
port offset
in the<IS_Home>/repository/conf/carbon.xml
file is set at 0 - Use
- Download and install Apache Ant if you have not already done so.
- Modify the
<remote-user-mgt_HOME>/client.properties
file if the default configuration to run the sample is different. For example, if you have changed the password for your user, you need to update it here. - Open a command line interface and navigate to the
<remote-user-mgt_HOME>
directory. - Run the ant command at this directory level in the command line and observe the different user management operations performed remotely. In a successful run, you will see following logs,
- Log in to the Identity Server and go to Users and Roles in the Configure menu in the management console.
- Click Users and you can now view the users created in the list using the sample.
Note: The service stubs are available at WSO2 Maven Repository and can be added as dependencies to the project. Also, you can generate the service stubs from the WSDL file available at https://localhost:9443/services/<ServiceName>?wsdl
In order to access the WSDL file, update the following configuration in the <IS_HOME>/repository/conf/carbon.xml
file.
<HideAdminServiceWSDLs>false</HideAdminServiceWSDLs>
