Interface PasswordEncoderService

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaulPasswordEncoderService, LDAPPasswordEncoderService

public interface PasswordEncoderService

The PasswordEncoderService encodes and decodes passwords for a given user. Based on the given passwordEncoding the corresponding PasswordEncoder is used for the encoding/decoding. Use getSupportedEncodings() to have a look which PasswordEncoders are supported.

Spring Bean ID:

passwordEncoderService

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
java.lang.String	decode(UserModel user)	Tries to decodes from the given user the encoded password based on the encoding set to the user.
java.lang.String	encode(UserModel user, java.lang.String plainTextPassword, java.lang.String passwordEncoding)	Encodes the given plainTextPassword with the corresponding PasswordEncoder (based on the passwordEncoding) and returns it.
java.util.Collection<java.lang.String>	getSupportedEncodings()
boolean	isSupportedEncoding(java.lang.String encoding)	Checks if the given password encoding is supported.
boolean	isValid(UserModel user, java.lang.String plainPassword)	Checks if the encoded password (stored in the user) matches the given plain text password.

Method Detail

encode

java.lang.String encode(UserModel user,
                        java.lang.String plainTextPassword,
                        java.lang.String passwordEncoding)
                 throws PasswordEncoderNotFoundException

Encodes the given plainTextPassword with the corresponding PasswordEncoder (based on the passwordEncoding) and returns it. The user can be used as 'salt' in the implementation of the PasswordEncoders

Parameters:

user - can be used as 'salt'. See MD5PasswordEncoder

plainTextPassword - the plain password

passwordEncoding - based on this encoding the correct PasswordEncoder is used

Returns:

the encoded password

Throws:

PasswordEncoderNotFoundException - if for the given passwordEncoding no PasswordEncoder is known

decode

java.lang.String decode(UserModel user)
                 throws PasswordEncoderNotFoundException,
                        CannotDecodePasswordException

Tries to decodes from the given user the encoded password based on the encoding set to the user.

see UserModel.getEncodedPassword() and UserModel.getPasswordEncoding()

Parameters:

user - contains the encoded password and the encoding

Returns:

the password in plain text if possible

Throws:

PasswordEncoderNotFoundException - if for the given passwordEncoding no PasswordEncoder is known in the system

CannotDecodePasswordException - if the encoded password cannot be decoded, see MD5PasswordEncoder

isSupportedEncoding

boolean isSupportedEncoding(java.lang.String encoding)

Checks if the given password encoding is supported.

Parameters:

encoding - the password encoding

Returns:

true if the given encoding is supported, false otherwise.

See Also:

PasswordEncoderConstants.DEFAULT_ENCODING

getSupportedEncodings

java.util.Collection<java.lang.String> getSupportedEncodings()

Returns:

a collection with the supported encodings of this system.

isValid

boolean isValid(UserModel user,
                java.lang.String plainPassword)

Checks if the encoded password (stored in the user) matches the given plain text password. For this the plain password will be encoded and compared with the user's encoded password.

Parameters:

user - the user contains the encoded password and the (password) encoding

plainPassword - the plain text password

Returns:

true if the encoded passwords matches, false otherwise
