aarc-ssh-portal

The AARC SSH-portal is a client portal to the AARC Master Portal which provides a user interface for the SSH public key upload API from the AARC Master Portal.
It is based on a customised version of the OA4MP.

Implementation

The SSH portal is an OA4MP client implementation. It talks to the Master Portal's sshkey endpoint. It runs as a tomcat servlet inside the same tomcat container as the Master Portal itself.

Compiling

1. You first need to compile and install the two RCauth-adapted dependency libraries

   1. security-lib
   2. OA4MP

   Make sure to use the same version (branch or tag) for both the security-lib and OA4MP components.
   For the 0.2 series of the aarc-ssh-portal, you must use the 4.2-RCauth versions.

2. Checkout the right version of the aarc-ssh-portal.

    git clone https://github.com/rcauth-eu/aarc-ssh-portal
    cd aarc-ssh-portal
   
    git checkout v0.2.4
    cd ssh-portal
   

3. Build the ssh-portal's war file

    mvn clean package
   

   After maven has finished you should find the .war file in the target directory:

    aarc-ssh-portal/ssh-portal/target/sshkey-portal.war
