+Policy XACML - Custom Application Tutorial
+##########################################
+
+.. toctree::
+ :maxdepth: 3
+
+This tutorial shows how to build a XACML application for a Policy Type. Please be sure to clone the
+policy repositories before going through the tutorial. See :ref:`<policy-dev-label>` for details.
+
+
+Design a Policy Type
+********************
+Follow :ref:`TOSCA Policy Primer <tosca-label>` for more information. For the tutorial, we will use
+this example Policy Type in which an ONAP PEP client would like to enforce an action **authorize**
+for a *user* to execute a *permission* on an *entity*.
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/tutorial-policy-type.yaml
+ :language: JSON
+ :caption: Example Tutorial Policy Type
+ :linenos:
+
+We would expect then to be able to create the following policies to allow the demo user to Read/Write
+a entity called foo. While the audit user can only read the entity called foo. No user has Delete
+permission.
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/tutorial-policies.yaml
+ :language: JSON
+ :caption: Example Policies Derived From Tutorial Policy Type
+ :linenos:
+
+Design Decision Request and expected Decision Response
+******************************************************
+For the PEP (Policy Enforcement Point) client applications that call the Decision API, you need
+to design how the Decision API Request resource fields will be sent via the PEP.
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/tutorial-decision-request.json
+ :language: JSON
+ :caption: Example Decision Request
+ :linenos:
+
+For simplicity, we expect only a *Permit* or *Deny* in the Decision Response.
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/tutorial-decision-response.json
+ :language: JSON
+ :caption: Example Decision Response
+ :linenos:
+
+Create A Maven Project
+**********************
+This part of the tutorial assumes you understand how to use Eclipse to create a Maven
+project. Please follow any examples for the Eclipse installation you have to create
+an empty application. For the tutorial, use groupId *org.onap.policy.tutorial* and artifactId
+*tutorial*.
+
+.. image:: tutorial/images/eclipse-create-maven.png
+
+.. image:: tutorial/images/eclipse-maven-project.png
+
+Be sure to import the policy/xacml-pdp project into Eclipse.
+
+.. image:: tutorial/images/eclipse-import.png
+
+Add Dependencies Into Application pom.xml
+*****************************************
+
+.. code-block:: java
+ :caption: pom.xml dependencies
+
+ <dependency>
+ <groupId>org.onap.policy.xacml-pdp.applications</groupId>
+ <artifactId>common</artifactId>
+ <version>2.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
+ </dependency>
+
+Create META-INF to expose Java Service
+**************************************
+The ONAP XACML PDP Engine will not be able to find the tutorial application unless it has
+a property file located in src/main/resources/META-INF/services that contains a property file
+declaring the class that implements the service.
+
+The name of the file must match **org.onap.policy.pdp.xacml.application.common.XacmlApplicationServiceProvider**
+and the contents of the file is one line **org.onap.policy.tutorial.tutorial.TutorialApplication**.
+
+.. image:: tutorial/images/eclipse-meta-inf.png
+
+Create A Java Class That Extends **StdXacmlApplicationServiceProvider**
+***********************************************************************
+You could implement **XacmlApplicationServiceProvider** if you wish, but
+for simplicity if you just extend **StdXacmlApplicationServiceProvider** you
+will get a lot of implementation done for your application up front. All
+that needs to be implemented is providing a custom translator.

+ // TODO Auto-generated method stub
+ return null;
+ }
+
+ }
+
+Override Methods for Tutorial
+*****************************
+Override these methods to differentiate Tutorial from other applications so that the XACML PDP
+Engine can determine how to route policy types and policies to the application.

+ // TODO Auto-generated method stub
+ return null;
+ }
+
+ }
+
+Create A Translation Class that extends the ToscaPolicyTranslator Class
+***********************************************************************
+Please be sure to review the existing translators in the policy/xacml-pdp repo to see if they could
+be re-used for your policy type. For the tutorial, we will create our own translator.
+
+The custom translator is not only responsible for translating Policies derived from the Tutorial
+Policy Type, but also for translating Decision API Requests/Responses to/from the appropriate XACML
+requests/response objects the XACML engine understands.
+

+ return null;
+ }
+
+ public DecisionResponse convertResponse(Response xacmlResponse) {
+ // TODO Auto-generated method stub
+ return null;
+ }
+
+ }
+
+Implement the TutorialTranslator Methods
+****************************************
+This is the part where knowledge of the XACML OASIS 3.0 specification is required. Please refer to
+that specification on the many ways to design a XACML Policy.
+
+For the tutorial, we will build code that translates the TOSCA Policy into one XACML Policy that matches
+on the user and action. It will then have one or more rules for each entity and permission combination. The
+default combining algorithm for the XACML Rules are to "Deny Unless Permit".
+
+.. Note::
+ There are many ways to build the policy based on the attributes. How to do so is a matter of experience and
+ fine tuning using the many options for combining algorithms, target and/or condition matching and the rich set of
+ functions available.
+
+Here is one implementation example:
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/app/src/main/java/org/onap/policy/tutorial/tutorial/TutorialTranslator.java
+ :caption: Example Translator Implementation
+ :linenos:
+
+Use the TutorialTranslator in the TutorialApplication
+*****************************************************
+Be sure to go back to the TutorialApplication and create an instance of the translator to return to the
+StdXacmlApplicationServiceProvider. The StdXacmlApplicationServiceProvider uses the translator to convert
+a policy when a new policy is deployed to the ONAP XACML PDP Engine.
+
+.. code-block:: java

+
+ package org.onap.policy.tutorial.tutorial;
+
+ import java.util.Arrays;
+ import java.util.List;
+
+ import org.onap.policy.models.tosca.authorative.concepts.ToscaPolicyTypeIdentifier;
+ import org.onap.policy.pdp.xacml.application.common.ToscaPolicyTranslator;
+ import org.onap.policy.pdp.xacml.application.common.std.StdXacmlApplicationServiceProvider;
+
+ public class TutorialApplication extends StdXacmlApplicationServiceProvider {
+
+ private final ToscaPolicyTypeIdentifier supportedPolicyType = new ToscaPolicyTypeIdentifier();
+ private final TutorialTranslator translator = new TutorialTranslator();
+
+ @Override
+ public String applicationName() {
+ return "tutorial";
+ }
+
+ @Override
+ public List<String> actionDecisionsSupported() {
+ return Arrays.asList("authorize");
+ }
+
+ @Override
+ public synchronized List<ToscaPolicyTypeIdentifier> supportedPolicyTypes() {
+ return Arrays.asList(supportedPolicyType);
+ }
+
+ @Override
+ public boolean canSupportPolicyType(ToscaPolicyTypeIdentifier policyTypeId) {
+ return supportedPolicyType.equals(policyTypeId);
+ }
+
+ @Override
+ protected ToscaPolicyTranslator getTranslator(String type) {
+ return translator;
+ }
+
+ }
+
+Create a XACML Request from ONAP Decision Request
+*************************************************
+The easiest way to do this is to use the annotations feature from XACML PDP library to create an example XACML
+request. Then create an instance and simply populate it from an incoming ONAP Decision Request.
+
+.. image: tutorial/images/eclipse-create-request.png
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/app/src/main/java/org/onap/policy/tutorial/tutorial/TutorialRequest.java
+ :caption: Example Decision Request to Decision Response Implementation
+ :linenos:
+
+
+Create xacml.properties for the XACML PDP engine to use
+*******************************************************
+In the applications *src/test/resources* directory, create a xacml.properties file that will be used by the embedded
+XACML PDP Engine when loading.
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/tutorial-xacml.properties
+ :caption: Example xacml.properties file
+ :linenos:
+ :emphasize-lines: 20, 25
+
+Create a JUnit and use the TestUtils.java class in application/common
+*********************************************************************
+Using Eclipse, create a JUnit and be sure to add a setup() method stub. Here you will be utilizing a TestUtils.java
+class from the policy/xamcl-pdp repo's application/common submodule to use some utility methods for building the JUnit test.
+
+.. image: tutorial/images/eclipse-junit-create.png
+
+Copy the TOSCA Policy Type :download:`link <tutorial/tutorial-policy-type.yaml>` and the TOSCA Policies :download:`link <tutorial/tutorial-policies.yaml>`
+into the src/test/resources directory.
+
+We will create a temporary folder which is used by the **StdXacmlApplicationServiceProvider** to store working copies of policies as they are loaded
+into the application.
+
+.. literalinclude:: tutorial/app/src/test/java/org/onap/policy/tutorial/tutorial/TutorialApplicationTest.java
+ :caption: Example Translator Implementation
+ :linenos:
+
+Run the JUnit test!!
+
+Where To Go From Here
+*********************
+Once you have created enough JUnit tests that test the TutorialTranslator.java and TutorialRequest.java classes, you are ready to now make your
+application available to the ONAP XACML PDP Engine. These steps are covered in another tutorial.
