apache shiro Implementatation

Question

I have knowledge of spring jsf and hibernate . I have integrated them and create my own framework. Now I want to add session management to my framework using Apache Shiro. But I do not have any knowledge of Apache Shiro. Can any one guide me on using Apache Shiro. If any tutorials or eBooks available would be of great help.

Answer 1

Check the documentation portion of the site. The Beginner's Introduction Tutorial is helpful.

Apache Shiro Documentation

Answer 2

I have work with Shiro on a few projects, though none of them have utilised Spring components.

In general I would recommend perusing the Web App section of the Shiro Documentation.

Also consider these points

• Shiro can allow for session management to be delegated to your Servlet environment
• Shiro can be configured to use Native (memory) session management
• Shiro can be configured to not create persistent sessions, requiring authentication on every request
• If the above config is too excessive for your app, you can also configure "noSession" on specific endpoints eg REST paths
