openam = openam.new(uri, cookie_params?, redirect_params?)

Creates the openam object. In case of failures, call ngx.exit with HTTP_FORBIDDEN status.

• uri: openam URI

The cookie_params table accepts the following fields:

• name: string, cookie name between your app and nginx, default: openam_name value
• openam_name: string, cookie name between nginx and openam, default: iplanetDirectoryPro
• domain: string, cookie domain, default: host
• secure: boolean, cookie secure attribut, default: false
• http_only: boolean, cookie httpOnly attribut, default: true
• path: string, cookie path, default: /

The redirect_params table accepts the following fields:

• follow_success_url: boolean, follow success url sent by OpenAM when authentication success, default: false
• follow_failure_url: boolean, follow failure url sent by OpenAM when authentication failed, default: false

status, json = openam:authenticate(username, password, realm?)

Authenticate an user.
Add a session cookie with the openam token.

• username: string, username
• password: string, password
• realm: string, realm used for authentication, optional

Return:

• status: http status 200 (authenticate) or 401 (invalid password/username), call ngx.exit with HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR if error
• json: openam json response if status 200, nil otherwise

status, json = openam:logout(token?)

Logout an user.
Remove the session cookie with the openam token.

• token: string, openam token, optional

Return:

• status: http status 200 (logout), call ngx.exit with HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR if error
• json: openam json response if status 200, nil otherwise

status, json = openam:logout(logout?, token?)

Check the validity of the token.

• logout: boolean, call logout if invalid token, optional
• token: string, openam token, optional

Return:

• status: http status 200 (valid or sucess logout) or 401 (invalid), call ngx.exit with HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR if error
• json: json response {"valid": true|false} if status 200, nil otherwise

status, json = openam:authorize(uri_value?, token?)

Check the access to an uri. In case of failures, call ngx.exit with HTTP_FORBIDDEN status.

• token: string, openam token, optional

Return:

• status: response http status
• json: nil if status not equal to 200 or 401 otherwise openam json response

Lua OpenAM requires either Lua 5.1, Lua 5.2, or LuaJIT to build.

The build method can be selected from 4 options:

• Make
• RPM: Various Linux distributions
• LuaRocks (http://www.luarocks.org/): POSIX, OSX, Windows

The included Makefile has generic settings.
First, review and update the included makefile to suit your platform (if required).
Next, install the module:

make install

Or install manually into your Lua module directory:

cp lib/openam/openam.lua $LUA_MODULE_DIRECTORY

Linux distributions using RPM can create a package via the included RPM spec file. Ensure the +rpm-build+ package (or similar) has been installed.
Build and install the module via RPM:

rpmbuild -tb 0.0.4.tar.gz
rpm -Uvh $LUA_OPENAM_RPM

LuaRocks can be used to install and manage Lua modules on a wide range of platforms (including Windows).
First, extract the Lua OpenAM source package.
Next, install the module:

cd lua-openam-0.0.4
luarocks make
