XDI discovery
The xdi2-client component contains client functionality for XDI discovery. Given an identifier such as a cloud name, or discovery key, useful information such a cloud number, a public key, or additional services, can be discovered.
The first (required) step is to send an XDI discovery request to a discovery service.
The second (optional) step is to send an XDI discovery request to the XDI authority associated with the identifier.
The xdi2-webtools component as well as the xdi2-tools project contain human-friendly frontends for the XDI discovery client.
Ehcache is used to cache discovery results. A custom cache can be set using properties on the XDIDiscoveryClient instance.
