In this workshop we will use Keycloak by JBoss/RedHat as local identity provider.
Keycloak is certified for OpenID Connect 1.0 and implements OAuth 2.0.
To setup Keycloak:
Either copy complete archive file keycloak.zip from provided USB stick at the workshop
OR follow the following steps:
- Download the binary distribution for Keycloak 6.0.1.
- Extract the downloaded zip file keycloak-6.0.1.zip into a new local directory of your choice (this directory will be referenced as <KEYCLOAK_INSTALL_DIR> in next steps)
- Download the prepared keycloak configuration for this workshop
- Extract the downloaded file keycloak_data.zip into the sub directory <KEYCLOAK_INSTALL_DIR>/standalone that has been created as part of step 2
To startup Keycloak:
- Open a terminal and change directory to sub directory <KEYCLOAK_INSTALL_DIR>/bin and start Keycloak using the standalone.sh(Linux or Mac OS) or standalone.bat (Windows) scripts
- Wait until keycloak has been started completely - you should see something like this
6.0.1 (WildFly Core 8.0.0.Final) started in 6902ms - Started 580 of 842 services - Now direct your browser to localhost:8080/auth/admin
- Login into the admin console using admin/admin as credentials
Now, if you see the realm workshop on the left then Keycloak is ready to use it for this workshop
