Search Database Authentication
Searches for a user record by querying against a username and password; the user is authenticated if at least one result is found.
The following settings and properties are available from the CAS configuration catalog:
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].password-encoder.encoding-algorithm=
The encoding algorithm to use such as
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].password-encoder.type=NONE
Define the password encoder type to use.
Type may be specified as blank or
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].principal-transformation.groovy.location=
Transform usernames using a Groovy resource. The location of the resource. Resources can be URLs, or files found either on the classpath or outside somewhere in the file system. In the event the configured resource is a Groovy script, specially if the script set to reload on changes, you may need to adjust the total number ofinotify instances.
On Linux, you may need to add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf :
fs.inotify.max_user_instances = 256 .
You can check the current value via cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances .
In situations and scenarios where CAS is able to automatically watch the underlying resource
for changes and detect updates and modifications dynamically, you may be able to specify the following
setting as either an environment variable or system property with a value of false to disable
the resource watcher: org.apereo.cas.util.io.PathWatcherService .

|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].principal-transformation.case-conversion=NONE
Indicate whether the principal identifier should be transformed into upper-case, lower-case, etc. Available values are as follows:
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].principal-transformation.pattern=
A regular expression that will be used against the provided username for username extractions. On a successful match, the first matched group in the pattern will be used as the extracted username. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].principal-transformation.prefix=
Prefix to add to the principal id prior to authentication. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].principal-transformation.suffix=
Suffix to add to the principal id prior to authentication. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.keep-alive-time=0
This property controls the keepalive interval for a connection in the pool. An in-use connection will never be tested by the keepalive thread, only when it is idle will it be tested. Default is zero, which disables this feature. This settings supports the
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.max-size=18
Controls the maximum number of connections to keep in the pool, including both idle and in-use connections.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.max-wait=PT2S
Sets the maximum time in seconds that this data source will wait while attempting to connect to a database. A value of zero specifies that the timeout is the default system timeout if there is one; otherwise, it specifies that there is no timeout. This settings supports the
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.maximum-lifetime=PT10M
This property controls the maximum lifetime of a connection in the pool. When a connection reaches this timeout, even if recently used, it will be retired from the pool. An in-use connection will never be retired, only when it is idle will it be removed. This settings supports the
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.min-size=6
Controls the minimum size that the pool is allowed to reach, including both idle and in-use connections.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.name=
Set the name of the connection pool. This is primarily used for the MBean to uniquely identify the pool configuration.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.suspension=
Whether or not pool suspension is allowed. There is a performance impact when pool suspension is enabled. Unless you need it (for a redundancy system for example) do not enable it.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].pool.timeout-millis=1000
The maximum number of milliseconds that the pool will wait for a connection to be validated as alive.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search=
Settings related to search-mode jdbc authentication. Searches for a user record by querying against a username and password; the user is authenticated if at least one result is found.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].autocommit=
The default auto-commit behavior of connections in the pool. Determined whether queries such as update/insert should be immediately executed without waiting for an underlying transaction.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].batch-size=
A non-zero value enables use of JDBC2 batch updates by Hibernate. e.g. recommended values between 5 and 30.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].credential-criteria=
A number of authentication handlers are allowed to determine whether they can operate on the provided credential and as such lend themselves to be tried and tested during the authentication handler selection phase. The credential criteria may be one of the following options:
This settings supports regular expression patterns. [?].
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].data-source-name=
Attempts to do a JNDI data source look up for the data source name specified. Will attempt to locate the data source object as is.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].ddl-auto=
Hibernate feature to automatically validate and exports DDL to the schema.
By default, creates and drops the schema automatically when a session is starts and ends.
Setting the value to
create-drop will result
in the loss of all data as soon as CAS is started. For transient data like tickets this is probably
not an issue, but in cases like the audit table important data could be lost. Using `update`, while safe
for data, is confirmed to result in invalid database state. validate or none settings
are likely the only safe options for production use.
For more info, see this.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].default-catalog=
Qualifies unqualified table names with the given catalog in generated SQL.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].default-schema=
Qualify unqualified table names with the given schema/tablespace in generated SQL.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].dialect=
The database dialect is a configuration setting for platform independent software (JPA, Hibernate, etc) which allows such software to translate its generic SQL statements into vendor specific DDL, DML.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].fail-fast-timeout=
Set the pool initialization failure timeout.
connectionTimeout or validationTimeout ; they will be honored before this
timeout is applied. The default value is one millisecond.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].fetch-size=
Used to specify number of rows to be fetched in a select query.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].generate-statistics=

The SQL query to be executed to test the validity of connections.
This is for "legacy" databases that do not support the JDBC4
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].idle-timeout=
Controls the maximum amount of time that a connection is allowed to sit idle in the pool. This settings supports the
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].isolate-internal-queries=
This property determines whether data source isolates internal pool queries, such as the connection alive test, in their own transaction. Since these are typically read-only queries, it is rarely necessary to encapsulate them in their own transaction. This property only applies if#autocommit is disabled.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].isolation-level-name=
Defines the isolation level for transactions.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].leak-threshold=

|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].principal-attribute-list=
List of column names to fetch as user attributes. This is only effective in scenarios where the JDBC authentication method is able to execute a SQL query against a database table and return results. Authentication methods that merely check for the user account's existence or verify the user with just a simple bind are not able to fetch attributes. Attributes name are separated by a comma and may use a "directed list" syntax where the allowed syntax would becolumn-name->cas-attribute .
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].propagation-behavior-name=
Defines the propagation behavior for transactions.
|
cas.authn.jdbc.search[0].properties=
Additional settings provided by Hibernate (or the connection provider) in form of key-value pairs.

Control global properties that are relevant to Hibernate, when CAS attempts to employ and utilize database resources, connections and queries.
cas.jdbc.case-insensitive=false
When choosing physical table names, determine whether names should be considered case-insensitive. How can I configure this property?
|

|
cas.jdbc.physical-table-names=
Indicate a physical table name to be used by the hibernate naming strategy in case table names need to be customized for the specific type of database. The key here indicates the CAS-provided table name and the value is the translate physical name for the database. If a match is not found for the CAS-provided table name, then that name will be used by default. How can I configure this property?
