core:PHP

This is a filter which makes it possible to run arbitrary PHP code to modify the attributes or state of an user.

Parameters

class

This is the name of the filter. It must be 'core:PHP' .

code

The PHP code that should be run. This code will have two variables available:

• $attributes . This is an associative array of attributes, and can be modified to add or remove attributes.

• $state . This is an associative array of request state. It can be modified to adjust data related to the authentication such as desired NameId, requested Attributes, authnContextRef and many more.

Examples

Add the mail attribute based on the user's uid attribute:

  10 => array(
      'class' => 'core:PHP',
      'code' => '
          if (empty($attributes["uid"])) {
              throw new Exception("Missing uid attribute.");
          }

          $uid = $attributes["uid"][0];
          $mail = $uid . "@example.net";
          $attributes["mail"] = array($mail);
      ',
  ),

Create a random number variable:

  10 => array(
      'class' => 'core:PHP',
      'code' => '
          $attributes["random"] = array(
              (string)rand(),
          );
      ',
  ),

Force a specific NameIdFormat. Useful if an SP misbehaves and requests (or publishes) an incorrect NameId

  90 => array(
       'class' => 'core:PHP',
       'code' => '$state["saml:NameIDFormat"] = ["Format" => "urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:transient", "AllowCreate" => true];'
  ),
