Get allusernames from userservice plugin

I wanted a way to get the list of usernames from OpenFire so I could compare it with our Active Directory since our OpenFire instance is in the cloud and our AD is private, I can’t have OpenFire access it directly. It occured to me if I could modified the userservice plugin to accept another option to get the list of usernames on the server, my goal could be achieved.

I added the following code to UserServicePlugin.java

public String getAllUsers()

{

String userNames = “”;

Collection usernamesCol = userManager.getUsernames();

for(Iterator i = usernamesCol.iterator(); i.hasNext():wink: {

userNames += “” + i.next() + “”;

}

return userNames;

}

and then modified/added this to the UserServiceServlet.java

if ((username == null) && (!“getallusers”.equals(type))){

replyError(“IllegalArgumentException”,response, out);

return;

}

else if (“getallusers”.equals(type)) {

String allUsers = plugin.getAllUsers();

replyMessage(allUsers,response,out);

}

The end result is if I use the userservice with a request type of getallusers, I get a result, in the format:

myuser1

myuser2

…etc…

which I can then consume/parse in my sync script. I don’t want to branch the code for this plugin. What is the correct way to request that this feature be added to the plugin officially?

Thanks,

Steve
