Hi,
I have written an OpenID consumer filter for Java webapps, and the
template/demo integration is currently JSPWiki. It's called Webapp
OpenID Login Filter (WOLF), and you can try it out or download it here:
http://www.jackpot.uk.net/
It is licensed under the GPL.
There is a link on that page to try out a JSPWiki that is secured using
OpenID. Don't rely on that wiki as storage space - it's just a demo, and
is liable to get burned without notice. But if you have constructive
additions to make, I'll try to preserve them across updates to the site.
Integrating WOLF with JSPWiki was not particularly intrusive,
requiring changes only to web.xml and Login.jsp. There are one or two
additional files, including the jar containing the code, a trivial realm
implementation, and the login form itself. It took a couple of hours,
which included figuring out how JSPWiki login works (I'm a newbie).
There are some instructions in the wiki.
On the whole it seems to me to be working well, although there are one
or two quirks. But please judge for yourself.
The software is very much beta - nobody has tried it except me, as far
as I'm aware. If you're interested in this stuff, but it isn't working
for you, please let me know. The site is also beta - it's very new, and
is subject to change at zero notice.
I plan to bundle other integrations - if you have suggestions as to
which apps I might want to target, I'd like to know about them. I'd
particularly like to bundle an integration with a Java blogging package,
but I haven't had much success with Pebble so far (after spending about
a day on it).
Thanks,
