OpenID Connect authentication

* Have the **<digdash_installation> / add-ons / valve_openidconnect folder** containing all the files necessary for setting up the OpenID Connect authentication valve in the DigDash Tomcat server. The placement of these files is described in this document.

14

** The apache-tomcat folder: transposed to **<digdash_install> / apache-tomcat**

15

*** The lib sub-folder: libraries and log configuration file to be placed in **<digdash_install> / apache-tomcat / lib**

16

*** The webapps sub-folder: the DigDash entry point (endpoint) in a .war to place in **<digdash_install> / apache-tomcat / webapps**

17

* The following operations are to be performed on the **stopped** DigDash server .

18

19

* The user to be authenticated must exist at both the OP and in the LDAP DigDash.

20

** //**It is therefore advisable to have at least one user having the rights to add DigDash users in the LDAP DigDash before installing the OpenID Connect valve, this in order to avoid SSO authentication failures from the first connections for cause of absence of such user in LDAP.**//

21

22

= Configuration of the DigDash server =

23

24

== Copy of libraries ==

25

26

Add the libraries and the log configuration file from the **apache-tomcat / lib** folder to the folder

27

38

Add the OpenID Connect authentication valve in the **server.xml** file located in the folder

39

|Attributes|Description

76

|(% style="color:#e74c3c" %)className //(required)// |Name of the Java class, implementing the org.apache.catalina.Valve interface, to use as Valve here. This attribute is mandatory because it allows you to select the Valve to use. There are indeed several implementations provided by Tomcat.

77

|(% style="color:#27ae60" %)allowAddr //(required)// |Server IP address.

78

|(% style="color:#27ae60" %)allowedCtxPath //(optional)// |Optional, is "/ adminconsole" by default; it is the path of the context whose resources are authorized to pass the valve, useful when the adminconsole is named differently. Example: allowedCtxPath = "/ customadminconsole"

79

|(% style="color:#27ae60" %)sharedPasswd //(required)// |The shared password and verified at authentication (see point II.5)

80

|(% style="color:#27ae60" %)redirect_url //(required)// |This is the path of the application to which users will be redirected after authenticating with the OP. For DigDash, the URL will always be [[https: ~~/~~/>>path:https:]] <IPaddress>: <port> / digdash_oidc_endpoint / oidcendpoint

81

|(% style="color:#27ae60" %)cookieTimeOut //(optional)// |(((

82

Optional, this is the time (in seconds) after which the SSO cookie will expire. Worth 1800 seconds (30 minutes) by default.

83

Otherwise, the cookie will expire after the number of seconds mentioned.

84

85

87

|(% style="color:#27ae60" %)print_debug //(optional)// |Optional, is false by default, otherwise add print_debug = "true" for more verbose traces.

88

|providers //(required)// |(((

89

Array form value of objects in JSON. Each element corresponds to an OpenID Provider used by the application.

90

91

The syntax differs from the standard JSON format in that double quotes are not used for the names of properties and their values (so as to make the format more XMLian). A value can be surrounded by single quotes if it contains separators such as a comma, braces, or spaces. Each object representing a PO has the following properties:

92

93

- **issuer ** //(mandatory) // : This is the only one with a unique URL to identify the OP.

94

95

* - **name ** //(optional) // : A name associated with the PO; if not by default.(((

96

- **clientId ** //(mandatory): // The client ID associated with the application at the PO.

97

98

- **clientSecret ** //(optional) // : The Secret client. Note that most POs require a Secret client, especially for calls to PO entry points. However, some OPs support public clients, hence the absence of a Secret client.

99

100

- **usernameClaim ** //(optional): // The user Identifier attribute requested by the RP and returned by the OP to identify the user who authenticates.

101

102

- **additionalScopes ** //(optional) // : Additional scopes with an 'openid' scope separated by spaces.

107

|httpConnectTimeout //(optional)// |Timeout in milliseconds for establishing the connection to the OP. 5000 ms (5 seconds) by default.

108

|httpReadTimeout //(optional)// |Timeout in milliseconds for reading data received from the OP. 5000 ms (5 seconds) by default.

Also, the OP will have to enter the callback URL to identify the entry point of the DigDash application. The URL will be of the form

You can customize the log level for the authentication valve.

By default, only errors are logged. If however you want to have more details on the course of actions and exchanges between the different entities, you can assign the value 'DEBUG' instead of 'ERROR' in the log4j.properties file which was imported into the lib folder of Tomcat .

304

You can, like the Dashboard, define the server and the domain on which DigDash will rely.
