The Shibboleth IdP V3 software has reached its End of Life and is no longer supported. This documentation is available for historical purposes only. See the IDP4 wiki space for current documentation on the supported version.
SVNResourceConfiguration
This is deprecated and will be removed in the V4 release
The resource:SVNResource type allows access to data which is stored in an SVN repository.
Configuring the SVNResource
Licensing constraints mean that the required jars cannot be bundled with the Shibboleth distribution and so, prior to configuring an SVN resource, you need to download the SVNKit jar from into %{idp.home}/edit-webapp/WEB-INF/lib and rebuild and deploy the war file.
Examples
<MetadataResource xmlns:resource="urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resource" xsi:type="resource:SVNResource"
resourceFile="entity.xml"
repositoryURL="https://svn.example.org/repo/path/to.dir"
workingCopyDirectory="%{idp.home}/metadata/svn" />
Schema Names and location
The resource: prefix is defined by the urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resource schema which can be located at http://shibboleth.net/schema/idp/shibboleth-resource.xsd.
