  • Method Details

    • supports

      boolean supports(AuthenticationToken token)
      Convenience implementation that returns getAuthenticationTokenClass().isAssignableFrom( token.getClass() );. Can be overridden by subclasses for more complex token checking. Most configurations will only need to set a different class via setAuthenticationTokenClass(java.lang.Classinvalid input: '<'? extends org.apache.shiro.authc.AuthenticationToken>), as opposed to overriding this method.
      Parameters:
      token - the token being submitted for authentication.
      Returns:
      true if this authentication realm can process the submitted token instance of the class, false otherwise.

    • authenticateAccount

      Optional<String> authenticateAccount(AuthenticationToken token)
      Parameters:
      token - the token being submitted for authentication.
      Returns:
      Validated Principal corresponding to the given token, or Option.empty if authentication fail.
