This page describes the I-Card interface that all types of Higgins-compatible I-Cards must implement. It also describes other interfaces that implementers may choose to implement.
Contents
I-Card Interface
// Return the human friendly name of the card String getCardName(); URI getUUID(); // Return the human friendly name of the card issuer (creator) String getIssuerName(); // Return a background image of the card Image getCardImage(); // Return the mime type of the background image (JPEG or GIF) String getImageMimeType(); // Return when the card was first issued Datetime getTimeIssued(); // Return the date and time after which the card should be // treated as expired and invalid. If there is no expiration // If card handles only simple claim types then // return a list of all possible types of claims that are supported // throw exception otherwise Iterable<String> getSupportedSimpleClaimTypes(); // If card handles complex claim types then // return an OWL-DL schema describing types of complex claim // objects that are supported String getSupportedComplexClaimTypes(); // Given a relying party policy Policy, return true // if this card can provide the claims required/desired by the relying party // else return false boolean isMatch(Policy); // Return whether the user wishes to be asked for explicit release of // this card's information (i) every time it is requested (ii) only // the first time it is requested (iii) never ReleasePolicy getReleasePolicy(); // Set the release policy of this card void setReleasePolicy(ReleasePolicy); // Return a list of the types of expored card data stream formats supported // ?? presumably a CardFormat also mentions XML language and/or version number <Iterable>CardFormat getSupportedExportFormats();
// Return a data stream containing a serialization of the card // The format depends on the kind of card // E.g. CardSpace I-Cards will export CardSpace format data String export(CardFormat format);
To Do
- Need methods to get/set the access control list idea (see I-Card)
TokenIssuerCard Interface
// Return the EPR of the card issuer // For CardSpace cards this is either the local STS endpoint (for // self-asserted cards) or a remote STS (for managed cards) // For some other kinds of cards this is might be an IdAS service endpoint EndpointReference getICardIssuerEndpoint();
// If card is of type (1) then return a Digital Identity // that satisfies the policy policy // The credential parameter used to authenticate to the // Token Issuer–-may be null if Token Issuer policy doesn’t require it DigitalIdentity requestDigitalIdentity(Policy policy, DigitalIdentity credential);
// Return a list of endpoint references, credential hint, credential selector Iterable<TokenService> getTokenServices() // Return a list of supported token types ?? getPolicy?? ();
// Is the RP identity required in the token request message? boolean getRequireAppliesTo()
URLIssuerCard Interface
// Return a URL // that satisfies the policy policy URL requestURL(Policy policy);
