Support case-insensitive mode for user IDs

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      We use this plugin with Active Directory users authorisation and via AD user can be authorised with lowercase and CamelCase names. But "role-strategy" plugin uses exact user name and we have to register two user names for each user - lowercase and CamelCase.

            Alexey, please test the plugin against ActiveDirectory. It works well for me (LDAP and LocalDatabase)

            Works for me, too.
            In combination with Active Directory plugin

            +1. IMO this would be better to not mark this issue as fixed for communication, since the code has actually not reached master (still in the PR).

            batmat, I've reopened the issue.

            I'll consider the merge of the PR in the next release.

            Has this been verified to work when using the "authenticated" special "user" when assigning roles.
            It may be that it works inherently, but I just want to verify prior to release.
            Also, will the update provide an option or will it automatically be case insensitive? (n/m, just saw the png)

            @pixman20
            Yes, it should work with the "authenticated" user group.
            If you want to perform an additional testing, I can provide the plugin's build with the patch. Such contribution will be appreciated.

            oleg_nenashev, I'd be happy to contribute and test it out. Feel free to email me (address in profile) unless there's somewhere I can grab it from. Thanks!

            What about the merge?

            Believe I'm seeing this problem.

            Users will be granted different access, whether they are logging in as lower-case "username" or have any or all letters capitalized.

            If there's still something that needs to be tested prior to merge, please contact me - I'd be happy to test.

            I believe that a proper implementation nowadays would be an integration with User ID strategies from JENKINS-22247: https://javadoc.jenkins.io/jenkins/model/IdStrategy.html. Such extension point is available in recent versions

            I have this same issue with OpenID connect authentication due to camelcase email addresses.  An option to treat all usernames as lowercase would address the issue blocking us from using role based strategy with openID connect
