Query about production usage #56

Closed Panchjanya closed 5 years ago

Panchjanya commented 5 years ago

Sorry for asking this question without reading the complete code-base.

May I know if this project can be used in production ?
(The reason for asking this question is in the description, it says mock IDP)

Is it just a mock or provide all the mentioned functionalities as it is as mentioned in the description.

Thanks

Hi Panchjanya,

I'm not sure I understand your question. Mujina provides all the functionalities that are described in the README.md. Mujina is a real SAML IdP and SP that is intended for testing, e.g. creating automated integration tests where it can be scripted to behave as a SAML IdP and/or SP. It is not intended to be used as an IdP or SP for authenticating real users, so in that sense it is a "mock".

Got it. Thank you for the clarification.

Background :
Actually, I have to create an IdP for my own usage. And I was looking for some open source implementation using Java. That's why I wanted to confirm if it can be used in production for real users.
