Per-entity Output

This command line configuration example:

  • reads a file path/to/input/aggregate.xml containing a SAML metadata aggregate

  • decomposes that aggregate into its constituent entity metadata documents

  • signs each of those per-entity documents using a private key located in path/to/secrets/private-key.pem

  • writes the results into multiple files in the directory path/to/output. Each file is named as a function of the entity's entityID attribute:

    • the string "_", followed by

    • a lower-case, hex-encoded, SHA-1 hash of the entityID, followed by

    • the string ".xml"

You can execute the example as follows:

$ .../mda.sh per-entity.xml main

The example configuration file is as follows; it has been verified with MDA version 0.10.0-SNAPSHOT as of 2023-10-25:
