Any 4.x Authentication Module Contributions/Extensions?

[Cantor, Scott]

The IDPPLUGINS space has two, TOTP and the Duo plugins, the TOTP one is pretty minimal.

I don't know why an existing one wouldn't be "run", that's nothing to do with the code really. The old configuration should apply just fine (you'd have a general-authn.xml file with the list of flow beans and the extension would be defined there).

A *new* install is different, and the difference is outlined in the Authentication topic, but that's not the assumption if you're porting a plugin up.

No, nothing to do with it. Unless you're planning to distribute and maintain the extension for others to install and upgrade, none of that is really important or all that useful.

That's not a good example to follow , it has access to things that a plugin can't. The actual plugins include the layouts that would be required to auto-register the login flow and the necessary definitions.

A jar doesn't have to implement the module or plugin layers to be used, that just allows for managed installation and activation.
