At a recent maintainer meeting we discussed what the path forward is for the Contour project providing support for OIDC in Contour and the contour-authserver repos.
Our end goal here is to have a story for external auth OIDC integration and provide some guidance for how to do things in production. We will provide deployment examples with a specific provider (e.g. https://github.com/dexidp/dex) but generally Contour should work with any with an appropriate shim/provider that can speak over grpc with Envoy.
Some steps we must complete for this are:
[ ] Mark this repo as experimental
It currently should not be treated as a production-ready piece of software as it was initially created for integration testing Contour
