Describe the solution you'd like Be able to login to an instance of LORIS using ORCID see: https://members.orcid.org/api/integrate/orcid-sign-in

Additional context Following the adoption of https://github.com/CONP-PCNO/conp-portal/wiki/Authentication-and-Authorization-Policies#authentication , any registered access level dataset on displayed on CONP which the resource(s) location is a LORIS instance MUST support ORCID authentication method. Otherwise, it falls under the private access level.

It would be a good idea to extend the usage of \LORIS\Middleware\AuthMiddleware to allow configuration of arbitrary authentication mechanisms and not do this in a service provider-centric way.

It would be useful to prioritize #5828 as well so that we can make use of React/more modern design in our authentication flow.

[driusan]

I don't see why that would help. Authentication needs to be done by the backend, the javascript used in the front end should have no impact on it.

[johnsaigle]

From my very basic understanding of ORCID it asks for us to provide a single sign on button and some error handling and it would be nice to do that with SWALs etc. rather than working it into Smarty and then reworking it.

[johnsaigle]

But you're right it's mostly a back-end task

[johnsaigle]

Beyond authentication it looks like there's a lot of things ORCID can do. This is an overview of their workflow and features for "repository systems":

this has been implemented for a few projects like HBCD (using Globus) and EEGNet (ORCID) to enable seamless syncing with CBrain.
