The newest version!
= property file Auth provider

This auth provider implementation reads users, roles and permissions from a property file that is compatible
with the format used by http://shiro.apache.org/static/1.3.2/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/realm/text/PropertiesRealm.html[Apache Shiro Properties Realm].

Note that there is no dependency on Apache Shiro as this is a new implementation that is simply compatible with the Apache Shiro format

The properties file should have the following structure:

Each line should either contain the username, password and roles for a user or the permissions in a role.

For a user line it should be of the form:

 user.{username}={password},{roleName1},{roleName2},...,{roleNameN}

For a role line it should be of the form:

 role.{roleName}={permissionName1},{permissionName2},...,{permissionNameN}

Here's an example:
----
user.tim = mypassword,administrator,developer
user.bob = hispassword,developer
user.joe = anotherpassword,manager
role.administrator=*
role.manager=play_golf,say_buzzwords
role.developer=do_actual_work
----

When describing roles a wildcard `*` can be used to indicate that the role has all permissions.

The implementation currently assumes that user/password based authentication is used.
