User updates not reflected in validateAndProxy()
by Brian Watson
I think I just answered my question: I should return a delegate from
validateAndProxy() that updates my data store when the delegate receives
updates.
Does this sound like the appropriate approach?

PAM integration with FreeIPA
by Bruno Oliveira
Good morning,
One of the use case scenarios described for FreeIPA, is the integration via PAM
and SSSD, which "automagically" handles the authentication against the IdM.
This first step requires pretty much an IPA setup, but
works with libpam4j[1]. Now, thinking about Keycloak, I
would like to have an Authenticator for PAM[2], which is pretty much our
UsernamePasswordForm + PAM. Does it make sense?
Current flow:
* User logs into Web application with username/password
* PAM authenticator collects data and authenticate against PAM
* SSSD authenticates against IdM
* Authentication is complete
After the last step, should we propagate that user to our database?
Maybe, like Marek already mentioned, have a SSSDFederationProvider?

User updates not reflected in validateAndProxy()
by Brian Watson
Hi all,
I am creating a custom user federation provider as a temporary bridge to
sync users between our old, custom auth solution's database and Keycloak. I
noticed an issue, and was looking for some clarification:
When I update a user via the administration UI, the validateAndProxy()
method of my UserFederationProvider instance is called, as expected.
However, the user passed into the method call contains the _old_
information for the user, not the _updated_ information. I set a breakpoint
in my code, and at the time that validateAndProxy() is called, the data
store still contains the _old_ information. Is this expected behavior? Is
there another SPI I should be using to see the updated information for the
user so that I can sync it with my data store?
Thank you in advance.

Re: [keycloak-dev] User Federation Provider Cache
by Ariel Carrera
There is not problem! :)
One more thing, I solved the problem of multiple "federation provider"
instances, adding this code to the DefaultKeycloakSession (and the method
definition in KeycloakSession interface):
> public <T extends Provider> void registerProvider(Class<T> clazz, Provider
> provider, String id) {
> Integer hash = clazz.hashCode() + id.hashCode();
> providers.put(hash, provider);
> }
And into MyUserFederationProviderFactory.getInstance(session, model)
something like this:
public UserFederationProvider getInstance(KeycloakSession session,
> UserFederationProviderModel model){
> UserFederationProvider provider = (UserFederationProvider)
> session.getProvider(UserFederationProvider.class, model.getId());
> if (provider == null){
> lazyInit(session);
> provider = new MyUserFederationProvider(session, model,
> config, ......);
>
> ((KeycloakSession)session).registerProvider(UserFederationProvider.class,
> provider, model.getId());
> };
> return provider;
> }
After a few tests and debug it seems to work... creating, catching, and
closing provider instances as expected.
In future versions as you said, maybe would be better include a way to
instantiate a complex object/provider instead of doing
> ProviderFactory.create(KeycloakSession session)
> some kind of method like
> ProviderFactory.create(KeycloakSession session, Object... obj);
and the appropriate method into the KeycloakSession
> <T extends Provider> T getProvider(Class<T> clazz, Object... obj);
> <T extends Provider> T getProvider(Class<T> clazz, String id, Object...
> obj);
And why not a map into the keycloakSession to store some additional context
data to share between providers during same request? It's only a vague idea
Regards!

How to set configs for RequiredAction in keycloak-server.json file
by Rashmi Singh
In keycloak-server.json, if we add the following
"authenticator": {
"test-authenticator": {
"config1": "xxxx"
}
}
the value of config1 can be retrieved in the factory class init method as:
config.get("config1")
Now, in the same way, if I want to get configs in the init method of a
RequiredAction class instead of an authenticator, how do I set it in
keyclock-server.json? What will be the exact syntax? Is it possible?
