Authentication through Gitea
Overview
One of the login options for dex uses the Gitea OAuth2 flow to identify the end user through their Gitea account.
When a client redeems a refresh token through dex, dex will re-query Gitea to update user information in the ID Token. To do this, dex stores a readonly Gitea access token in its backing datastore. Users that reject dex's access through Gitea will also revoke all dex clients which authenticated them through Gitea.
Configuration
Register a new OAuth consumer with Gitea ensuring the callback URL is (dex issuer)/callback
. For example if dex is listening at the non-root path https://auth.example.com/dex
the callback would be https://auth.example.com/dex/callback
.
The following is an example of a configuration for examples/config-dev.yaml
:
connectors:
- type: gitea
# Required field for connector id.
id: gitea
# Required field for connector name.
name: Gitea
config:
# Credentials can be string literals or pulled from the environment.
clientID: $GITEA_CLIENT_ID
clientSecret: $GITEA_CLIENT_SECRET
redirectURI: http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback
# optional, default = https://gitea.com
baseURL: https://gitea.com
