I wanted to add a new addon to Forge that handles the Java EE security topics:

- Add constraints to some resources

- Setup authentication mechanism (form, basic, digest, etc.)

- Assign realm to security constraints

- Create security roles

- If the realm is JDBC and JPA facet is installed, add an entity along with some named queries

I looked in the Forge JIRA whether there is something like that and I found this issue created almost a year and a half ago:

I read in the description though, that the addon should be also able to setup groups and users inside a realm. Isn't that too server specific if the realm is not JDBC? Maybe we could continue the communication in the issue, so whoever is interested my add themselves as a watcher there?

Cheers,

Ivan
