Re: [keycloak-user] JPA Authentication Provider

Hi Josh, yes, it's possible to create your own JPA authentication provider, which will use hibernate model of your own application and authenticate users based on your user data. I hope I understand correctly that this is something you are trying achieve? For declare own datasource, it's easiest to add datasource into file JBOSS_HOME/standalone/configuration/standalone.xml (look at JBoss/Wildfly documentation and/or existing datasource declarations how to do it) and then either create new file META-INF/persistence.xml inside your JAR and/or extend existing keycloak file JBOSS_HOME/standalone/deployments/auth-server.war/WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/persistence.xml and declare your own persistence unit, which will point to the datasource declared in standalone.xml . Again look at docs or existing persistence units for inspiration. Finally in code of your provider, you can do something like: EntityManagerFactory emf =Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("name-of-your-persistence-unit"); You can take a look at existing Keycloak sources for inspiration.
