[Koha-devel] Keycloak as Identity Provider using Koha's users

[David Cook]

Hi all,

 

I've posted the Keycloak extension for using Koha's user database as
Keycloak's user datastore:
https://gitlab.com/minusdavid/keycloak-user-storage-koha

 

This effectively allows you to use Koha (version 22.11.03 and upwards) as an
Identity Provider - mediated via Keycloak (version 20 and up). 

 

So you can set up Koha to use Keycloak via SAML or OIDC and then have other
third-party services like EBSCO EDS using the Keycloak, and thus you have
SSO across the board while the users are fully managed through Koha, which
is pretty cool.

 

At some point, I might look into how I can host the built JAR on Gitlab as
well, but I've provided the command to build the JAR using Docker, so it is
very easy to do even if you're not a Java expert. 

 

Let me know if you need any help trying it out.
