Social Connectors

This project contains two custom Keycloak identity providers, one for GitHub Enterprise and one for GitLab (local). As of version 6, Keycloak does not have support for locally installed versions of GitHub and GitLab beyond the standard OpenID Connect v1.0 connector. This connector does not work well for GitLab and not at all for GitHub Enteprise. The social module found in this repository corrects this by providing GitHub and GitLab specific identity providers that can be configured to point to local installations.

GitLab Identity Provider

This package contains a variant of the Keycloak GitLab social provider that is capable of using a local GitLab installation. This solves the issues that appear when trying to use the Keycloak OpenID Connect identity provider.

For more information about why this provider is necessary, see this issue.

The following are steps to using this provider:

1. Clone and build the custom Keycloak provider here: https://github.com/Apicurio/apicurio-keycloak-extensions
2. Copy the resulting JAR file from apicurio-keycloak-extensions/social/target/apicurio-keycloak-extensions-social-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar into your Keycloak installation's standalone/deployments directory
3. Before starting Keycloak, add the following system property: -Dapicurio.hub.gitlab.url=http://local-gitlab.example.org where the value is obviously the real URL to your local GitLab install
4. When configuring Keycloak, you will now have two GitLab options when creating the Identity Provider. Instead of choosing GitLab (or OpenID Connect v1.0) instead choose GitLab (Local).
5. All other configuration is the same as documented for using the public GitLab service.

The result of doing this is that you will be using the custom GitLab ID provider implementation instead of the Keycloak baked-in one. And the only difference between the custom one and the default is that custom provider checks for that System Property to determine the location of the various GitLab OpenID Connect endpoints. So if you start Keycloak with the apicurio.hub.gitlab.url system property properly set, everything should work!

GitHub Identity Provider

This package contains a variant of the Keycloak GitHub social provider that is capable of using a local GitHub Enterprise installation. This solves the issues that appear when trying to use the Keycloak OpenID Connect identity provider.

For more information about why this provider is necessary, see this issue.

The following are steps to using this provider:

1. Clone and build the custom Keycloak provider(s) here: https://github.com/Apicurio/apicurio-keycloak-extensions
2. Copy the resulting JAR file from apicurio-keycloak-extensions/social/target/apicurio-keycloak-extensions-social-6.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar into your Keycloak installation's standalone/deployments directory
3. Before starting Keycloak, add the following two system properties to it (either via command line or via standalone.xml):

-Dapicurio.hub.github.baseUrl=https://github.com
-Dapicurio.hub.github.apiUrl=https://api.github.com

(Obviously change the above values to be your local GitHub Enterprise installation rather than the public URLs)

4. When configuring Keycloak, you will now have two GitHub options when creating the Identity Provider. Instead of choosing GitHub (or OpenID Connect v1.0) instead choose GitHub (Local).
5. All other configuration is the same as documented for configuring public GitHub integration.

The result of doing this is that you will be using a custom GitHub Identity provider implementation instead of the Keycloak baked-in impl. And the only difference between mine and the default is that mine checks for those System Properties to determine the location of the various GitHub OpenID Connect endpoints. So if you start Keycloak with the apicurio.hub.github.baseUrl and apicurio.hub.github.apiUrl system properties properly set, everything should work!
