Yep you're right, from my experience it's easier to create a Java extension rather then dive deep into the guts of ScriptMapper trying to make it return what you want :)

You did everything right. The only missing piece is deployment descriptor. If you're hot deploying (via standalone/deployments directory), put this into your META-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jboss-deployment-structure>
  <deployment>
    <dependencies>
        <module name="org.keycloak.keycloak-services"/>
    </dependencies>
  </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>

...then recompile and redeploy. Or, if you'd like to deploy it as a Wildfly/JBoss module, do the following in jboss-cli:

module add --name=sib-group-membership-mapper --resources=/path/to/sib-group-membership-mapper.jar --dependencies=org.keycloak.keycloak-services

...so that it creates the descriptor (yet a different one) for you.

Good luck!
Dmitry
