Is there a way to provide SAML sp implementation using an Apache filter?

I'm really new with SAML SSO. I'm woking with an idp webapp tha开发者_JS百科t will support SAML authentication.

The problem is that I will need that other sp authenticate with my idp and I don't want to implement all the protocol in every platform (Python, PHP, Java, etc).

I was thinking if there's a way to implement the sp authentication flow using an apache filter.

Has someone thought about this?

Thanks.

mod_mellon is what you're looking for: https://github.com/UNINETT/mod_auth_mellon

Using Shibboleth as a SAML client in conjunction with Apache web server may be an alternative.
