[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (SEAMSOCIAL-11) Identity on UserProfile

[Todd Morrison (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMSOCIAL-11?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12599954#comment-12599954 ] 

Todd Morrison commented on SEAMSOCIAL-11:
-----------------------------------------

I am currently using this minor fork update to synchronize authentication against my real membership implementation. 

Essentially, after the auth. round-trip the callback page is using the 	<f:event type="preRenderView"..> tag to call back into a managed bean to validate with initAccessToken() on the OAuthServiceHandler

At this point, I am taking the UserProfile (with new identity field) and doing a cross-check against known users in my system.

If the id doesn't exist, they need to either complete sign-up or I create a User entity on the spot.

If the id does exist, auto-auth.

> Having a permanent identifier on the UserProfile against major social network implementations is vital for qualification against a proprietary membership model.
> Could you add an String Id field on the UserProfile interface?
> This would allow consumers to decorate their User Entity with something like 'facebookId', 'twitterId' and 'linkedInId'. Upon auth, they can do a look-up on their own User entity and decide if the user can authenticate based on the token.
> This will also allow users to change ScreenName, Email, etc. in the social network without damaging the authentication bridge upon revisit.
