I followed this tutorial to enable REST service on my local CAS server.
However there is no Java example
"Java REST Client Example
We need a real, working, example, the previous one is useless. Many people are emailing me that it is not working, and I confirm it does not work."
I was able to find this but that unfortunately did not work for me.
Any pointers/links? Much appreciated.
Got it!
Here is the complete solution on how to enable CAS REST API and be able to connect to it via JAVA REST client to benefit others
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jasig.cas</groupId>
<artifactId>cas-server-integration-restlet</artifactId>
<version>${cas.version}</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
<version>3.1.1.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>restlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.noelios.restlet.ext.spring.RestletFrameworkServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>restlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/v1/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
https://server:8443/cas/loginhttps://server:8443/cas/v1/tickets201 https://server_name:8443/cas/v1/tickets/TGT-4-rhVWLapYuOYi4InSEcmfNcABzaLMCPJgGIzlKqU1vb50zxb6pp-server_name Tgt is : TGT-4-rhVWLapYuOYi4InSEcmfNcABzaLMCPJgGIzlKqU1vb50zxb6pp-server_name.ndev.coic.mil Service url is : service=https%3A%2F%2Fmyserver.com%2FtestApplication https://server_name:8443/cas/v1/tickets/TGT-4-rhVWLapYuOYi4InSEcmfNcABzaLMCPJgGIzlKqU1vb50zxb6pp-server_name Response code is: 200 200 ST-4-BZNVm9h6k3DAvSQe5I3C-server_name
Success!
For CAS 4.0 it's a little simpler (tested on apache-tomcat-7.0.55)
in your pom.xml add following dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jasig.cas</groupId>
<artifactId>cas-server-integration-restlet</artifactId>
<version>4.0.0</version>
<scope>runtime</scope>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-webmvc</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
Direct dependency to springframework is not necesarry because exclusions prevent from duplicated packages
In your web.xml you need to add servlet mapping for restlet (mind package has changed from com.noelios.restlet... to org.restlet...
<servlet>
<servlet-name>restlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.restlet.ext.spring.RestletFrameworkServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>restlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/v1/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
As a result of above steps in yuor WEB-INF/lib directory following new files should be added
ls target/cas/WEB-INF/lib/ | grep restlet
cas-server-integration-restlet-4.0.0.jar
org.restlet-2.1.0.jar
org.restlet.ext.servlet-2.1.0.jar
org.restlet.ext.slf4j-2.1.0.jar
org.restlet.ext.spring-2.1.0.jar
If you wish to skip cert validation add this to your Java Client
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// this block of code turns off the certificate validation so the client can talk to an SSL
// server that uses a self-signed certificate
//
// !!!! WARNING make sure NOT to do this against a production site
//
// this block of code owes thanks to http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/javax.net.ssl/trustall.html
//
TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[] {
new X509TrustManager() {
public java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() {
return null;
}
public void checkClientTrusted(java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] certs, String authType){}
public void checkServerTrusted(java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] certs, String authType){}
}
};
SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
sslContext.init(null, trustAllCerts, new java.security.SecureRandom());
HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultSSLSocketFactory(sslContext.getSocketFactory());
//
//
// end of block of code that turns off certificate validation

Usually devs are confused on how to get rest client working when accessing secured CAS web service. Most of the question out there were asking how to get restlet CAS secures a webservice and how to call those web service, because no real example were working.
Well actually there is. Groovy example is on the JASIG Cas restlet example https://wiki.jasig.org/display/casum/restful+api is clearly show how to get authenticated to call a service (its using Groovy, but converting to Java should be straight forward) . But in my opinion, it do not clearly explain that client need to authenticate to the designated web service first before accessing CAS secured web service.
For example, assume there is a JSON service that secured with CAS and build with Java and Spring. And you are using code that describe on the groovy section on https://wiki.jasig.org/display/casum/restful+api
String casUrl="https://yourcas.com/v1/tickets"
String springTicketValidation="http://yourservice.com/j_spring_cas_security_check"
String serviceToCall="http://yourservice.com/serviceToCall"
To get your service client be able to call the service, you need to follow these simple rules:
or in code perspective
String ticketGrantingTicket = getTicketGrantingTicket(casUrl, username, password)
String serviceTicket = client.getServiceTicket(casUrl, ticketGrantingTicket, serviceToCall)
// validate your ticket first to your application
getServiceCall(springTicketValidation, serviceTicket)
getServiceCall(serviceToCall, serviceTicket)
And for your note, all these operation should be done in following condition:
HttpClient object. It seems that CAS put "something" in the session object that validated when you call your service. Fails this, and you will always get logon page on the HTTP result.Hope this help
