Modular Script Realm plugin for Jenkins

This fork of the "Script Realm" plugin for Jenkins adds e-mail and display name resolution support.

The original plugin allows to use a user-written custom script to authenticate the username and password (also supports groups). This is useful if you need to plug into a custom authentication scheme, but don't want to write your own plugin. Find more about the original plugin at https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Script+Security+Realm.

By default this plugin triggers any MailAddressResolver and UserNameResolver installed on the Jenkins instance. You may also disable resolution or use a specific resolver for each of them.

For instance, the LDAP Email Plugin provides a MailAddressResolver. If installed, you may configure "Modular Script Realm" to use a custom script to authenticate users and the "LDAP Email Plugin" to resolve their e-mail.

Since this plugin does not know how resolvers from external plugins are to be configured, using a random resolver might not work at all.

You will soon find here a list of known working configurations.
