Interface AttributeTranscoderRegistry

All Superinterfaces:

Component, IdentifiedComponent

All Known Implementing Classes:

AttributeTranscoderRegistryImpl

@ThreadSafe
public interface AttributeTranscoderRegistry
extends IdentifiedComponent

The transcoder registry provides access to "instructions" for converting between the IdPAttribute "neutral" representation within the IdP and protocol-specific forms such as SAML Attributes or OIDC claims.

@Unmodifiable
Map<Locale,String> getDisplayNames(@Nonnull
                                         IdPAttribute attribute)

Get the localized display names for an IdPAttribute.

Parameters:

attribute - input attribute

Returns:

map of locale-based names

@Unmodifiable
Map<Locale,String> getDescriptions(@Nonnull
                                         IdPAttribute attribute)

Get the localized descriptions for an IdPAttribute.

Parameters:

attribute - input attribute

Returns:

map of locale-based descriptions

getTranscodingRules

@Unmodifiable
Collection<TranscodingRule> getTranscodingRules(@Nonnull
                                                IdPAttribute from,

                                                Class<?> to)

Obtains a set of instructions for encoding an input IdPAttribute into a target type.

The principal property useful to a caller is PROP_TRANSCODER to obtain an instance of the appropriate AttributeTranscoder to call, passing in the properties to drive that call.

Parameters:

from - the input object to encode

to - class of object being encoded

Returns:

a collection of TranscodingRule objects, possibly empty

<T> Collection<TranscodingRule> getTranscodingRules(@Nonnull
                                                    T from)

Obtains a set of instructions for decoding an input object into an IdPAttribute.

The principal property useful to a caller is PROP_TRANSCODER to obtain an instance of the appropriate AttributeTranscoder to call, passing in the properties to drive that call.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of object to decode

Parameters:

from - object to decode

Returns:

a collection of TranscodingRule objects, possibly empty
