Good morning,
Today we had a meeting to discuss some of the priorities for security on
AeroGear[1]. One of the items is OAuth2 support. Currently we have
several great examples and implementations for GDrive, flows for
Keycloak and etc.
Although is a bit confuse for developers getting started from scratch.
I would like to keep our libaries aligned, considering the limitations
of each technology of course, as well consolidate each flow[2].
Also the team agreed that OpenID connect (with Facebook and Google) should be considered a
low
priority at the moment. That said I have some open questions:
- Should we provide separated SDKs for OAuth2? Or let's put everything
into *-auth and break into modules later?
Note: Not only for Keycloak, but also compatible with other technologies
like passport on Node.js. In the end, OAuth2 is just a protocol and
should support other servers.
- Should we provide examples for OpenID connect? Or abstractions?
To track this issue, we have the following Jira[3] and another for
OpenID connect[4]. Fell free to link to your respective project.
