Interface TokensManagement


  • public interface TokensManagement
    Tokens API allows for manipulating generic tokens. Token is a piece of information which is:
    • bound to an entity
    • has unique identifier
    • has type (e.g. OAuth access token)
    • can have expiration time, when it is removed
    • can contain additional, type specific data
    Tokens are used by both engine and endpoint extension modules.

    As this is a low level interface it allows for external transaction steering. All methods will join an existing transaction if it is present.

      • addToken

        void addToken​(String type,
                      String value,
                      byte[] contents,
                      Date created,
                      Date expires)
               throws IllegalTypeException
        Adds a new token without owner
        Parameters:
        type - type or category of the token
        created - creation timestamp. It is guaranteed to be stored with second precision, though implementation might also store the full time.
        expires - precision as in created case.
        Throws:
        IllegalTypeException
      • removeToken

        void removeToken​(String type,
                         String value)
        Removes the token
      • updateToken

        void updateToken​(String type,
                         String value,
                         Date expires,
                         byte[] contents)
        Update the token. Only contents and expiration time can be updated - the type and value are used to look up a token for update.
        Parameters:
        expires - if null -> leave unchanged
        contents - if null -> leave unchanged

        List<pl.edu.icm.unity.base.token.Token> getAllTokens​(String type)
        Returns:
        all tokens of a given type
      • getAllTokens

        List<pl.edu.icm.unity.base.token.Token> getAllTokens()
