[keycloak-dev] Provider modules

As I said to make sure we're all on the same page here's my view on what we've just discussed: 1. A user creates a module for the provider 2. The user copies the module into '/modules' 3. The user registers the module with the auth-server subsystem. This can be done either by directly editing standalone.xml or through CLI. Example snippet from standalone.xml would look like: <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:keycloak:1.0"> <auth-server name="main-auth-server"> <enabled>true</enabled> <web-context>auth</web-context> <providers> <module name="org.acme.userprovider" /> <module name="org.acme.anotherprovider" /> </providers> </auth-server> </subsystem> 4. When a new provider module is registered Keycloak would need to be reloaded This will require some changes to how Keycloak loads/finds providers as it needs to not only look in its own ClassPath for providers, but also in all ModuleClassPath that is referenced in the subsystem.
