[keycloak-user] How to only protect specific paths (SPA)

[Mehdi Mehdi]

Hello everyone and thank you for sharing keycloak with the community.

I'm trying to use keycloak on my SPA (single page application with javascript in both front & back ends).

I only want to password protect specific paths and not all paths. The problem is that once I do require login

keycloak.init( {onLoad: 'login-required'})...
on some "sensitive path" all the other paths become protected. I suspected that would happen because I did not find a function to suspend "requiring a login".

Indeed, I did test this by going to the keycloak admin page and logged out the user (who was by then on a public/not-protected path). On my SPA the user got kikked out asking her for a password through keycloak even though she was on a 'public path'.

In short, is there a way to instruct keycloak not to require a login.

BTW, I'm only using keycloak on the front end right now.. Need to make it work before also using it on my API (back end).

Thank you in advance for your feedback.
