The match-sdk library provides the implementation in the MatchSDK class, which implements the methods and properties of the IBioApiV2 interface. The match method is as follows:

...

The match-sdk internally utilizes the dependencies kernel-core, kernel-biometric-api, kernel-bio-converter , and biometric-util to implement match validation.

...

Integration with the Android reg client app:

Option 1: Add match-sdk .aar file as library and add the local path dependency in build gradlein a directory at app level and refer from the required modules build.gradle as dependency api.

Option 2: Add dependency in build gradle to get the match-sdk lib remotely. This requires match-sdk to be published to remote repo for example: maven central.

For now, Option 1 is being followed to verify the correctness of the match-sdk and its implementation. It is integrated as follows:

The matchsdk-debug.aar or matchsdk-release.aar file is added to the libs folder of the module integrated in the Android reg client app where the match-sdk validation needs to be invoked. In the client manager module, we are using it for comparing the biometric data of the applicant against the biometric data of the operators.

Adding this to client manager build.gradle as:

...

following the steps below:

  1. Create a "matchsdk" directory at the app level if it doesn't exist already.

  2. Place the matchsdk-debug.aar / matchsdk-release.aar file in a directory within your Android project. For example,

  3. Now create a build.gradle file in matchsdk directory and add the below contents

    Code Block
    configurations.maybeCreate("default")
    artifacts.add("default", file('matchsdk-debug.aar'))
  4. Add this to your settings.gradle file

    Code Block
    include ':matchsdk'
    

...

  1. project(':matchsdk').projectDir = new File('matchsdk')
  2. Include your new module in the module you wish to use the AAR. eg, if you want to use it within your clientmanagermodule, open clientmanager's Gradle and add the following into your dependencies { } section as

    Code Block
    api project(':matchsdk')

In the client manager module, we are using it for comparing the biometric data of the applicant against the biometric data of the operators.

In the code where the match logic must be called, we need to add:

...

To perform the validation, it is necessary to invoke the match() method of the match-sdk. This can be achieved by initializing a MatchSDK() object in the constructor of the Biometric095Service class, where the match logic is required.

...

The code to validate the biometric data is added in the below method of Biometric095Service class.

Code Block
public List<BiometricsDto> handleRCaptureResponse(Modality modality, InputStream response, List<String> exceptionAttributes) throws BiometricsServiceException {

. . .
if(RegistrationConstants.ENABLE.equalsIgnoreCase(this.globalParamRepository.getCachedStringGlobalParam(RegistrationConstants.DEDUPLICATION_ENABLE_FLAG))) {
    boolean isMatched = MatchUtil.validateBiometricData(modality, captureDto, biometricsDtoList, userBiometricRepository, iBioApiV2);
    if(isMatched){
         Log.i(TAG, "Biometrics Matched With Operator Biometrics, Please Try Again");
         return null;
    }
  }
}

MatchUtil class is created to have the validate biometric logic and provide required methods and properties. The validateBiometricData() method is called based on the modality and biometric data of current applicant and operator biometrics.  

...

This method internally calls the matchBiometrics() method to check the match between the operator biometrics and applicant biometric.

Code Block
/**

{@link BiometricRecord array} respectively and calls the match method of Match-SDK library

Design consideration:

The kernel-biometric-api library is obtained from the bio-utils repository's develop branch - bio-utils/kernel-biometrics-api

The inclusion of kernel-biometric-api in the Android reg client app, in order to reference the IBioApiV2 interface, is implemented to prevent transitive dependency errors caused by the lombok and jackson libraries. This is necessary because those libraries were referencing older versions of the same dependencies.
