This is a Django login view that authenticates against an OpenID Connect Authentication Server.
Use it if you own a single Authentication Server that you want to share between multiple apps.
This is a fork of the abandoned django-auth-oidc. Original code by the Aiakos team.
It's a OAuth2-based standard for authentication in applications.
It can be used for social logins, and for setting up Single Sign-On into multiple services hosted by the same company. In the last case, it somewhat supersedes LDAP, as with OIDC people are entering their credentials only into the views served by the Authentication Server, and not into all the company's applications.
.. code:: python
pip install django-better-auth-oidc
settings.py
.. code:: python
INSTALLED_APPS += ['django_better_auth_oidc']
urls.py
.. code:: python
urlpatterns += [
path('auth/', include('django_better_auth_oidc.urls')),
]
Server Cache Lock
By default, DBAO will only fetch the server info based on a cache lock timer. To disable this feature, use the setting AUTH_SERVER_CACHE_LOCK and set to false.
Authorization Server
App's redirect URI: http(s)://app-domain/auth/done App's post-logout redirect URI: http(s)://app-domain/LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL (or / if not set)
Authorization Server details
You may specify following settings in the Django settings file:
* AUTH_SERVER - OpenID Connect Authorization Server URL.
* AUTH_CLIENT_ID - Client ID received from the Authorization Server
* AUTH_CLIENT_SECRET - Client secret received from the Authorization Server
* AUTH_PROTOCOL (optional) - Legacy protocol supported by openid-connect_ library, for example github or gitlab. See openid-connect_'s documentation for full list of supported protocols.
Or, alternatively, you may set the AUTH_URL environment variable:
.. code:: bash
AUTH_URL=(protocol+)http(s)://client_id:client_secret@server/
(Note: ":", "@", "/" and "%" inside client_id and client_secret must be urlquoted.)
