Custom mediator

To write a mediator, you must implement the interface named com.ibm.oauth.core.api.oauth20.mediator.OAuth20Mediator You can implement one or more mediate* methods to perform custom post processing.

void init(OAuthComponentConfiguration config)

This method is called by a factory when an instance of this object is created.

void mediateAuthorize(AttributeList attributeList)

This method is called by the core component after basic message validation and processing to allow any post custom processing by the component consumer in the processAuthorization method.

void mediateAuthorizeException(AttributeList attributeList, OAuthException exception)

This method is called by the core component when the protocol exception happens to allow any post custom processing by the component consumer in the processAuthorization method.

void mediateResource(AttributeList attributeList)

This method is called by the core component after basic message validation and processing to allow any post custom processing by the component consumer in the processResourceRequest method.

void mediateResourceException(AttributeList attributeList, OAuthException exception)

This method is called by the core component when protocol exception happens to allow any post custom processing by the component consumer in the processResourceRequest method.

void mediateToken(AttributeList attributeList)

This method is called by the core component after basic message validation and processing to allow any post custom processing by the component consumer in the processTokenRequest method.

void mediateTokenException(AttributeList attributeList, OAuthException exception)

This method is called by the core component when protocol exception happens to allow any post custom processing by the component consumer in the processTokenRequest method.

To add a customized mediator to a specific OAuth20 service provider, update the configuration file for the service provider, for example, OAuthConfigSample.xml. Locate the oauth20.mediator.classnames parameter and add the class name for the mediators. You can also specify multiple class names for mediators for the oauth20.mediator.classnames parameters. If multiple mediators are specified, those mediators are started in the order they are specified in the parameter. The following example shows a sample custom mediator entry in the provider configuration file:

<parameter name="oauth20.mediator.classnames" type="cc" customizable="false">
  <value>org.acme.oauth2.sampleMediator</value>
  <value>org.acme.oauth2.sampleMediator2</value>
</parameter>

The following code sample implements the credential validation by using the WebSphere® Application Server user registry in the resource owner password credentials flow.
