public interface IdentityManager<I extends Identity>
extends IdentityDb<I>

This interface to the database allows the caller to make changes to identity information, like creating users, enabling/disabling users, etc.

A userId string can be any value suitable to the application, such as email address or UUID. Note that userIds are fixed, so using an email address comes with some risk of identity migration work if the email address changes.

I loadUser(String userId)
    throws IamSvcException

Load a user from the identity manager.

Parameters:

userId - a user ID

a user or null if the user doesn't exist

Throws:

IamSvcException - when the call cannot be completed due to a service error

loadUserOrAlias

I loadUserOrAlias(String userIdOrAlias)
           throws IamSvcException

Load a user from the identity manager.

Parameters:

userIdOrAlias - the actual userId or an alias

a user or null if the user doesn't exist

Throws:

IamSvcException - when the call cannot be completed due to a service error

findUsers

List<String> findUsers(String startingWith)

IamSvcException - when the call cannot be completed due to a service error

createUser

I createUser(String userId)
      throws IamIdentityExists,
             IamSvcException

Create a new user in the identity manager. The username for this user defaults to the userId value provided here.

Parameters:

userId - a user ID

Returns:

the new user

IamIdentityExists - if the user exists

IamSvcException - when the call cannot be completed due to a service error

createAnonymousUser

I createAnonymousUser()
               throws IamSvcException

Create a new anonymous user in the identity manager.

getAllUsers

Collection<String> getAllUsers()
                        throws IamSvcException

a collection of user Ids

Throws:

IamSvcException - when the call cannot be completed due to a service error

loadAllUsers

Map<String,I> loadAllUsers()
                          throws IamSvcException
