Hello, As a long-time Java web developer, I've now been doing clojure for a few days so there's a lot I don't get yet, but I do have an end-to-end working Compojure web application with a UI, JSON web services, and working form-based authentication using Friend - originally using the in-memory users 'database' from the demos.
So what I am doing now is trying to get user name and password validation going against a database table. I actually managed to get this integrated and working as a Friend credential-fn. The state my application in right now is that username and password combinations are properly validated against my database table. So I can authenticate, or not, correctly. The only piece that is not yet working is to get role authorisations working according to the roles in my database table. I just can't see how I'm supposed to map one or more namespaced roles to either a "roles" column value, or a roles join table in the database. The examples for Friend show roles like "::admin", "::user", and I use similar roles from more than one namespace - so what should I persist in the database to load those roles via my credential-fn, and how should I populate the :roles property from the result-set? I feel like I'm really close to getting this fully working, but I've hit a road-block so any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Regards, -M.
