[keycloak-user] Getting Access token over REST API

[Stian Thorgersen]

I would strongly suggest you reconsider and use the Keycloak login as there
are many many reasons why that is a better approach. I'm not going to list
it again, because I've done that to many times to count. The login page is
highly customizable so you can make it look exactly how you like. Any
specific reasons why this is not an option?

If you still insist on doing it the "wrong way" then use the OAuth2
resource owner credential grant instead, take a look at
https://keycloak.gitbooks.io/securing-client-applications-guide/content/topics/oidc/oidc-generic.html
for more details.
