Karl Wright commented on SOLR-1895:
-----------------------------------
There's no "proxy app" in the jira post because I obviously didn't provide an
end-user application to go along with Solr. I expect that end-users will not
be interacting with Solr directly anyway, since it provides mainly API-level
access but not much end-user-friendly access, other than administration, which
you probably don't want end-users to be able to do either. And finally,
allowing access to the update/delete API to end users is a huge security hole
all by itself.
So, granted there is another application involved, it's going to need to do
several things:
(0) Present itself appropriately in the end-user environment
(1) Authenticate the end-user
(2) Submit requests to Solr in proper form

> Key: SOLR-1895
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1895
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: SearchComponents - other
> Reporter: Karl Wright
> Fix For: 1.5
>
> Attachments: LCFSecurityFilter.java, LCFSecurityFilter.java,
> LCFSecurityFilter.java
>
>
> I've written an LCF SearchComponent which filters returned results based on
> access tokens provided by LCF's authority service. The component requires
> you to configure the appropriate authority service URL base, e.g.:
> <!-- LCF document security enforcement component -->
> <searchComponent name="lcfSecurity" class="LCFSecurityFilter">
> <str
> name="AuthorityServiceBaseURL">http://localhost:8080/lcf-authority-service</str>
> </searchComponent>
> Also required are the following schema.xml additions:
> <!-- Security fields -->
> <field name="allow_token_document" type="string" indexed="true"
> stored="false" multiValued="true"/>
> <field name="deny_token_document" type="string" indexed="true"
> stored="false" multiValued="true"/>
> <field name="allow_token_share" type="string" indexed="true"
> stored="false" multiValued="true"/>
> <field name="deny_token_share" type="string" indexed="true" stored="false"
> multiValued="true"/>
> Finally, to tie it into the standard request handler, it seems to need to run
> last:
> <requestHandler name="standard" class="solr.SearchHandler" default="true">
> <arr name="last-components">
> <str>lcfSecurity</str>
> </arr>
> ...
> I have not set a package for this code. Nor have I been able to get it
> reviewed by someone as conversant with Solr as I would prefer. It is my
> hope, however, that this module will become part of the standard Solr 1.5
> suite of search components, since that would tie it in with LCF nicely.
