Conditional execution block
Table of Contents
NOTE: The until action should be used instead of the with action. The until action is a super set of the with action and provides a more flexible and powerful way to control pipeline execution.
The with block provides conditional execution of pipelines based on the result
of a condition pipeline. It evaluates a condition and executes different
pipelines depending on whether the condition succeeds or fails.
Syntax
with [pipeline directive] {
# Condition pipeline - determines which branch to execute
condition-actions...
} do {
# Execute this pipeline if condition succeeds (returns true)
success-actions...
} else {
# Execute this pipeline if condition fails (returns false) - optional
failure-actions...
}
Parameters
- pipeline directive (optional): Pipeline directive for the condition block. Defaults to
while - condition pipeline: Actions that determine the outcome
- do pipeline: Actions executed when condition succeeds
- else pipeline (optional): Actions executed when condition fails
Example
aaa {
policy "DEFAULT" {
handler "AUTHENTICATION" {
execute {
# Check if backend authentication succeeds
with {
backend "LDAP_AUTH";
} do {
# Backend authentication successful
accept "LDAP authentication successful";
} else {
# Backend authentication failed
reject "LDAP authentication failed";
}
}
}
}
}
This example demonstrates using with to conditionally handle authentication based on a backend check. If the LDAP backend authentication succeeds, the user is accepted. If it fails, the user is rejected with an appropriate message.
Migration to until
Use until end {} with when clauses to replicate the do/else branches:
until end {
backend "LDAP_AUTH";
} when accept {
# Backend authentication successful
accept "LDAP authentication successful";
} else {
# Backend authentication failed
reject "LDAP authentication failed";
}
