RAD Server External Credentials Support
(Redirected from EMS External Credentials Support)
Go Up to RAD Server Engine (EMS Server)
RAD Server allows you to use external credentials in your custom plugins to execute login and signup operations in the RAD Server Engine (EMS Server).
Custom Login Resource
You need to create an empty custom RAD Server package that exposes the custom LoginUser and SignupUser endpoints.
These custom methods should match the signatures of Users.LoginUser and Users.SignupUser endpoints, as follows:
{$METHODINFO ON}
[ResourceName('CustomLogin')]
TCustomLogonResource = class
public
[EndpointName('CustomSignupUser')]
// Declare endpoint that matches signature of Users.SignupUser
[ResourceSuffix('signup')]
procedure PostSignup(const AContext: TEndpointContext; const ARequest: TEndpointRequest; const AResponse: TEndpointResponse);
[EndpointName('CustomLoginUser')]
// Declare endpoint that matches signature of Users.LoginUser
[ResourceSuffix('login')]
procedure PostLogin(const AContext: TEndpointContext; const ARequest: TEndpointRequest; const AResponse: TEndpointResponse);
end;
{$METHODINFO OFF}
The implementation of these methods depends on the validation credentials you are using.
Using the Custom Login Resource
Once the RAD Server Engine loads the custom login resource, you can choose two different ways to use a custom resource for login and signup in the RAD Server Engine (EMS Server):
- Include custom settings to redirect the Users.LoginUser and Users.SignupUser methods to a custom resource in the emsserver.ini.
[Server.Redirect]
Users.SignupUser={"destination":"CustomLogin"}
Users.LoginUser={"destination":"CustomLogin"}
- In the RAD Server Client Application, set the TEMSProvider.LoginResource to the name of a custom login resource:
TEMSProvider.LoginResource:=CustomLogin
