Hi Tomas,

 

I thought that you were working on an OpenID Connect implementation, but then I started to doubt my memory. I suppose the takeaway is that I should never doubt myself haha. 

 

Yeah Bug 30988 is basically a copy of Bug 10988 (the Google version). I have never liked Bug 10988, but it’s hard to argue with something in production, and I’m tired of maintaining my own local OpenID Connect implementation these last 8 years. 

 

Of course, there are times where I think about writing a Koha plugin to do it instead. Locally, I’ve implemented it as a sort of built-in plugin using these hooks https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=24539. Those hooks could always be changed to support the Koha Plugin system though. 

 

Anyway, please CC me into your implementation when you submit it.

Hi, David. I meant to answer your first email. I'm submitting (immediately) an alternative implementation I've been working on but failed to wrap up sooner.

 

I've read the one you pointed and if fairly similar to the google oaidc implementation for OPAC, so it is correct.

 

My plan is to do it for staff as well, using libraries.

Hi all,

 

Just wondering if anyone has time to QA “Bug 30988 - Add generic OpenIDConnect client implementation”. It would be great to get this additional authentication option into Koha as it would really round out Koha’s AuthN offerings.

 

I could do some testing for bugs of the QAer’s choice if that helps.
