The following steps have to be performed in order to use this library:

  • copy org.gcube.vomanagement.voms-api.jar in a convenient directory
  • Edit a vomsAPI.properties file based on the template provided in the SA.

vomsAPI.properties file is contained in SA and basically is composed of 3 sections: 1. information about VOMS server 2. information about MyProxyCA server 3. CLIENT credentials: the credentials to be specified by client to contact VOMS. They should have VO-Admin privileges in VO group.* Move your vomsAPI.properties in client working directory in order to use the settings chosen.
