[keycloak-user] Get user by username on version 1.7.0

[Kalinga Dissanayake]

I have a simple requirement.
I need to check if a user is already present on IDM before allowing the user to register himself. I basically use the admin rest apis offered by keycloak for all my user activities.
 
I was able to do this before 1.6.0, since there was an api to get user by username. I believe that this has been deprecated (removed completely) and replaced by get user by userId.
 
If there any way to fulfill my need in idm 1.7.0?
 
Regards,
Kalinga
