Hi,

The pac4j team (http://www.pac4j.org/) is happy to announce the release of the first version of jax-rs-pac4j (Apache 2.0).

Pac4j is a Java security engine to protect web applications, it is integrated with many frameworks and now with JAX-RS runtimes. It supports most authentication mechanisms, such as OAuth (Facebook, Twitter, Google...), SAML, CAS, LDAP, SQL, JWT, MongoDB, and others.

jax-rs-pac4j provides ways to protect your resources using annotations or global filters to protect your application.
It has been tested with Jersey and Resteasy, both with servlet and non-servlet containers.

It also supports injection at resources method level of the authenticated profile, but in Jersey only (for now, we are looking for contributions on this :).

You can find more details at https://github.com/pac4j/jax-rs-pac4j.

We hope the community we use it, we are very open to contributions and issue reports to improve it (it is still young but used in some real projects :).

Cheers,

Victor
