Setup of the local development for Shibboleth and the corresponding development of plugins for Shibboleth

[Jason Pyeron]

Sounds cool. One of the things I do personally, is to run tomcat inside of eclipse. This allows me to debug with breakpoints most easily.

 

I follow the production install guides, but then point my eclipse’s configurations (tomcat, project, etc) to those directories.

 

I build using the scripts.

 

v/r,

Subject: Setup of the local development for Shibboleth and the corresponding development of plugins for Shibboleth

 

Good day,

 

I am an employee of the Central IT of the University of Applied Sciences Munich and at the same time I will write my master thesis of the IT Security course in the research project "Zero Trust Networking" of Prof. Dr. Thomas Schreck. Specifically, I would like to implement the Shared Signal and Events Framework (https://sharedsignals.guide/) of the OpenID Foundation within Shibboleth as a proof-of-concept. 

 

In the last weeks I was able to familiarize myself with the Confluence pages of the Shibboleth project as well as the training material of the DFN (). Furthermore I was able to have a look at some code. 

 

The next thing I would like to do is to enable a local development environment of Shibboleth, so I can get it running in my development environment. In this context I have the following questions:

*	I would like to know how you build the setup for local development of Shibboleth as well as for the associated plugins? 
*	Do you use a docker-compose stack for all dependencies, such as database, LDAP, etc.?
*	Which of the project's java-identity-provider artifacts will be deployed inside Tomcat?
*	What arguments, configurations, or even env variables are used to start Shibboleth during development? 
*	Can you provide me with further documentation or help so that I can start developing? 

 

Thanks in advance for answering the questions.

 

I am especially looking forward to an exchange with you.

 

Best regards,

Michael Fuchs
