OmniAuth::OpenIDConnect

Originally was omniauth-openid-connect

I've forked this repository and launch as separate gem because maintaining of original was dropped.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'omniauth_openid_connect'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install omniauth_openid_connect

Supported Ruby Versions

OmniAuth::OpenIDConnect is tested under 2.4, 2.5, 2.6

Additional Configuration Notes

• name is arbitrary, I recommend using the name of your provider. The name configuration exists because you could be using multiple OpenID Connect providers in a single app.

NOTE: if you use this gem with Devise you should use :openid_connect name, or Devise would route to 'users/auth/:provider' rather than 'users/auth/openid_connect'

• response_type tells the authorization server which grant type the application wants to use, currently, only :code (Authorization Code grant) and :id_token (Implicit grant) are valid.
• If you want to pass state paramete by yourself. You can set Proc Object. e.g. state: Proc.new { SecureRandom.hex(32) }
• nonce is optional. If don't want to pass "nonce" parameter to provider, You should specify false to send_nonce option. (default true)
• Support for other client authentication methods. If don't specified :client_auth_method option, automatically set :basic.
• Use "OpenID Connect Discovery", You should specify true to discovery option. (default false)
• In "OpenID Connect Discovery", generally provider should have Webfinger endpoint. If provider does not have Webfinger endpoint, You can specify "Issuer" to option. e.g. issuer: "https://myprovider.com" It means to get configuration from "https://myprovider.com/.well-known/openid-configuration".
• The uid is by default using the sub value from the user_info response, which in some applications is not the expected value. To avoid such limitations, the uid label can be configured by providing the omniauth uid_field option to a different label (i.e. preferred_username) that appears in the user_info details.
• The issuer property should exactly match the provider's issuer link.
• The response_mode option is optional and specifies how the result of the authorization request is formatted.
• Some OpenID Connect providers require the scope attribute in requests to the token endpoint, even if this is not in the protocol specifications. In those cases, the send_scope_to_token_endpoint property can be used to add the attribute to the token request. Initial value is true, which means that the scope attribute is included by default.
