Hey all,
I need to add one more module to automatically configure Spring Security for Spring Boot
applications. This is a convenience but it’s also important to stop Spring Boot from
registering the security filters twice.
This would be post 1.2.0 but I want to bring it up for two reasons.
First, documentation. For 1.2.0, I’ll add a note on the extra Spring Bean that has to be
added to stop Spring from registering the Keycloak security filters twice.
Secondly, we need a decent module name. spring-boot-starter-keycloak would be inline with
Spring’s boot starter naming conventions but I wanted to get your opinions first. There’s
already a spring-boot adapter in Keycloak that uses the Tomcat adapter. I don’t want to
confuse things. There’s also the option of maintaining this boot starter separately or
trying to contribute it to Spring Boot if that’s a better place for it to live.
Best,
Scott
