I'd say Jira sounds good Franck, we can all get it there, including Andrew. I like the factory pattern idea, but where it appears in the codebase I'm not so sure about. MyResearch is where all the local database code is. When I first started I found the name and location confusing. What isn't there is business logic relating to session/authentication, and I kind of like that distinction. Having implemented Chris's patch for database session storage we are now looking at 4 tiers of code for user handling: -------------------- index.php => /sys/User.php ==> /sys/MySQLSessions.php ===> /services/MyResearch/lib/* (Sessions & Users) -------------------- If anything I'd prefer to see the DataObject stuff come out of MyResearch and rework /sys -------------------- /sys/database/* <= All the DataObject stuff currently nested under MyResearch (no business logic) /sys/sessions/* <= Authentication and session handling (including the factory object) /sys/datasources/* <= Solr... perhaps more with growth /sys/util/* <= The rest... -------------------- Those are just my quick thoughts, but ultimately, whilst I like the idea, and think it's necessary... it's not a high priority from our perspective.

Subject: Re: [VuFind-Tech] Add Shibboleth/SimpleSAMLphp authentication method Hi Andrew, I have written the necessary code to shib-enable vufind. In witch form should I commit the code? Should I post the entire vuFind code with the changes or only the changed code (I don't have access to the svn, so I will post the code in Jira)? Furthermore I would like to change the structure of the authentication process. At the moment the authentication process is coded in the index.php. The code should be moved in the MyResearch. I would like to use a factory pattern to bind the different authentication methods. Is this ok?
