This command line configuration example:
reads aggregate metadata from a local directory, the UK federation and from the InCommon federation
verifies each aggregate's signature
disaggregates each input aggregate into individual entities
schema-validates each entity, logging and removing any schema-invalid entity
merges metadata from the three sources while removing duplicate entities
removes three specific entities belonging to the Shibboleth project
generates and signs three output aggregates: one containing all entities, one containing just IdP entities, and one containing just SP entities
writes the three output aggregates into files
This example also demonstrates some techniques you can use to simplify Spring bean configuration files.
You can execute the example as follows:
$ .../mda.sh config.xml main
The example configuration file is as follows; it has been verified with MDA version 0.9.1:
