Grouper Provisioning Framework 

  • For provisioning to external subject source
  • Each Provisioner will have a “start with” 
  • There is a start with for the start with
  •  
  • (Enhancement suggestion : use link with drop down)
  • Suggestion : change “submit” to “continue”
  •  
  • Grouper 2.69 is getting ready for release 
  • Need to do unit testing


Grouper Training May 17 - 20, 2022

https://incommon.org/academy/grouper-school/

Went well



Current Work

 

Vivek

  • Vivek is working on LDAP Start With
  • Then will make a similar demo youtube to the SQL demo youtube


Shilen

  • Membership trace 
  • Worked on comments made a last Grouper call
  • First part of that work is in GIT now
  • Shows useful info
  • Can take some time to load where there is a lot of info
  • Need options for what gets displayed
  • Add provisioning?  Not all history gets kept
  • Go to Grouper Sync tables
  • See dates for provisioned or unprovisioned
  • Should be easy query
  • DOA class for memberships
  •  
  • Shilen will also look at issues around incremental loader
  • Liam created a JIRA

  • On Grouper Slack: Primary key problem for Quarz insert
  • Adding a trigger
  • Chris responded
  • Not sure what’s causing the issue
  • Another issue: Liam requested: change log table if someone changes then refresh membership table


Chad

  • Grouper Training went very well last week
  • Did not go into depth on provisioning this time
  • Maybe need a proper lesson to go over the concepts
  • Now there’s an easy way to get started
  • People asked about de-provisioning
  • Need a lesson on that

  • A Grouper Training class participants added a Pull request for changes to Grouper Training Environment container so you can show?  into the container from the browser. 
    Called Shell in a box
  •      However, there are security concerns, so it likely makes sense to hold off
  •     Also could be one more library to need to patch
  • There were good suggestions in the slack channel, Chris will review
  • Chad did some JIRAs: class name change caused an issue, couldn’t find substitution variables.
  • Another JIRA around Grouper Finder and Stem Finder, exclude alternate names, added to method chaining
  • Chad Started to work on GSH loader.
  •  It will be a lot of work
  • No re-use of the attributes
  • Need classes , static strings, check configs
  • In Grouper 3.0 we may improve the Grouper Loader
  • Continue w GSH Loader and power through? NO, prefer to revert it back, it’s too much work


  • There was a question on Grouper slack about Grouper Loader and API
  • You can write an “other” job, so no pressing need
  • There are probably other higher priority items
  • Shilen: not sure why loader is so redundant
  • LDAP attributes, SQL attributes
  • Can’t just add a  config
  • JSP shows each attribute with conditional, 
  • Can’t re use existing names
  • Same config but different names
  • Could consider having an other job that you can configure
  • Run as a daemon
  • Using loader logic
  • Constrain of 4K
  • Pick job from drop down
  • Params in job itself? Or pass params

 Looking Ahead

  •  After Grouper 2.69, Chris would like to prioritize provisioning
  • Have sprints, Do testing 
  • Do roadmap items for 2.6
