Hi,

The pac4j team (http://www.pac4j.org/) is happy to announce the release of
the first version of jax-rs-pac4j (Apache 2.0).

Pac4j is a Java security engine to protect web applications, it is
integrated with many frameworks and now with JAX-RS runtimes. It supports
most authentication mechanisms, such as OAuth (Facebook, Twitter,
Google...), SAML, CAS, LDAP, SQL, JWT, MongoDB, and others.

jax-rs-pac4j provides ways to protect your resources using annotations or
global filters to protect your application. It has been tested with Jersey
and Resteasy, both with servlet and non-servlet containers.

It also supports injection at resources method level of the authenticated
profile in Jersey.

You can find more details at https://github.com/pac4j/jax-rs-pac4j.
The maven artefacts are released on Maven central.

Note also that for users of dropwizard, we released an integration of pac4j
that relies on jax-rs-pac4j and add configuration support (see
https://github.com/pac4j/dropwizard-pac4j).

We hope the community we use it, we are very open to contributions and
issue reports to improve it (it is still young but used in some real
projects :).

Cheers,

Victor
