DateTimeAttributeDefinition

Namespace: urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resolver
Schema: http://shibboleth.net/schema/idp/shibboleth-attribute-resolver.xsd

Overview

The DateTime AttributeDefinition converts one or more input values into a Java Instant (an unambiguous timestamp based on the Unix epoch) . The resulting attribute's values are of type DateTimeAttributeValue. This definition type can convert string values that are either numeric, or that match a supplied DateTimeFormatter formatting string. Numeric values may be processed in seconds or in milliseconds since the Unix epoch. It is allowed to mix numeric and formatted string inputs.

Errors in converting data may be fatal or ignored.

Reference

The following are supported:

Name	Type	Default	Description

Name	Type	Default	Description
ignoreConversionErrors	Boolean	false	If the resulting IdPAttribute has fewer values than the number of input values, then the definition will raise a fatal error by default unless this setting is changed
epochInSeconds	Boolean	true	The default is to process numeric data as seconds since the epoch, in keeping with common usage on many platforms, but if false, milliseconds are used instead, as is typical in Java
formattingString	String		A pattern used to create a DateTimeFormatter object to apply to non-numeric String data input to the definition

Examples

<AttributeDefinition id="expirationOfSomething" xsi:type="DateTime" epochInSeconds="false">
    <InputAttributeDefinition ref="expTimeFromDirectory" />
</AttributeDefinition>
