OpenID Connect
==============
This extension lets you authenticate Frontend users against an OpenID
Connect server. It is preconfigured to work with the `WSO2 Identity
Server `__ from the
Swiss Alpine Club but may be used with your own identity server as well.
If you are a Swiss Alpine Club section, be sure to get in touch with
Bern in order to get your dedicated private key and secret.
Default FE Loginbox
-------------------
This extension integrates with the system extension ‘felogin’.
This FLUID markup can be used to include a link to the authorization
endpoint of the authorization server.

See also ``Resources/Private/Templates/Login/Login.html`` as reference.
OIDC Login
----------
If openid_connect is your only means of frontend login, you can use the
included “OIDC Login” plugin. Add it to your login page, where you would
normally add the felogin box. After adding the OIDC Login plugin,
requests to the login page will immediately be redirected to the
authorization server.
After the login process, the user will be redirected:
- The OIDC Login supports the same ``redirect_url`` parameter as the
felogin box
- If no parameter is set, OIDC Login will redirect the user to the page
configured at ``plugin.tx_oidc_login.defaultRedirectPid``.
- If that configuration is not set either, the user will be redirected
to ‘/’.
PKCE (Proof of Key for Code Exchange)
-------------------------------------
If your OIDC Login supports *Proof of Key for Code Exchange* you can
enable it by checking ``enableCodeVerifier`` in the extension
configuration. A shared secret will be sent along preventing
*Authorization Code Interception Attacks*. See
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7636 for details.
Configuring
-----------
Mapping Frontend User Fields
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Configuration is done through TypoScript within
``plugin.tx_oidc.mapping.fe_users``
- OIDC attributes will be recognized by the specific characters ``<>``:
::
email =
- You may combine multiple markers as well, e.g.,
::
name = ,
- Support for
`stdWrap `__
in field definition, e.g.,
::
name =
name.wrap = |-OIDC
- Support for `TypoScript
“split” `__
(``//``). This will check multiple field names and return the first
one yielding some non-empty value. E.g.,
::
username = // // //
Mapping Frontend User Groups
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Create your groups within TYPO3
- Use the additional pattern to relate it to roles within OpenID
Connect
- Local TYPO3 groups (not related to some role) will be kept upon
authenticating
- Default TYPO3 group(s) as configured in Extension Manager will always
be added
.. _oidc-login-1:
OIDC Login
~~~~~~~~~~
- ``plugin.tx_oidc_login.defaultRedirectPid`` UID of the page that
users will be redirected to, if no ``redirect_url`` parameter is set.
Logging
-------
This extension makes use of the Logging system introduced in TYPO3 CMS
6.0. It is far more flexible than the old one writing to the “sys_log”
table. Technical details may be found in the `TYPO3 Core
API `__.
As an administrator, what you should know is that the TYPO3 Logger
forwards log records to “Writers”, which persist the log record.
By default, with a vanilla TYPO3 installation, messages are written to
the default log file (``var/log/typo3_*.log``).
Dedicated Log File for OpenID Connect
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you want to redirect every logging information from this extension to
``var/log/oidc.log`` and send log entries with level “WARNING” or above
to the system log, you may add following configuration to
``typo3conf/AdditionalConfiguration.php``:
::
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['LOG']['Causal']['Oidc']['writerConfiguration'] = [
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Log\LogLevel::DEBUG => [
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Log\Writer\FileWriter::class => [
'logFileInfix' => 'oidc'
],
],
// Configuration for WARNING severity, including all
// levels with higher severity (ERROR, CRITICAL, EMERGENCY)
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Log\LogLevel::WARNING => [
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Log\Writer\SyslogWriter::class => [],
],
];
**Hint:** Be sure to read `Configuration of the Logging
system `__
to fine-tune your configuration on any production website.
