A convenience libary for authenticating users from Keycloak access tokens
Project description
DRF Keycloak Auth
Requirements
- Python >= 3.4
- Django
- Django Rest Framework
- Python Keycloak
Installation
$ pip install drf-keycloak-auth
Add the application to your project's INSTALLED_APPS
in settings.py
.
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'drf_keycloak_auth',
]
In your project's settings.py
, add this to the REST_FRAMEWORK
configuration. Note that if you want to retain access to the browsable API for locally created users, then you will probably want to keep rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication
too.
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
...
'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [
...
'rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication',
'drf_keycloak_auth.authentication.KeycloakAuthentication',
]
}
and add this to the MIDDLEWARE
configuration to parse roles from the JWT
MIDDLEWARE = [
...
'drf_keycloak_auth.middleware.KeycloakMiddleware'
]
The drf_keycloak_auth
application comes with the following settings as default, which can be overridden in your project's settings.py
file. Make sure to nest them within DRF_KEYCLOAK_AUTH
as below:
DEFAULTS = {
'KEYCLOAK_SERVER_URL': os.getenv('KEYCLOAK_SERVER_URL'),
'KEYCLOAK_REALM': os.getenv('KEYCLOAK_REALM'),
'KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID': os.getenv('KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID'),
'KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET_KEY': os.getenv('KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET_KEY'),
'KEYCLOAK_AUTH_HEADER_PREFIX':
os.getenv('KEYCLOAK_AUTH_HEADER_PREFIX', 'Bearer'),
'KEYCLOAK_MANAGE_LOCAL_USER':
os.getenv('KEYCLOAK_MANAGE_LOCAL_USER', True),
'KEYCLOAK_MANAGE_LOCAL_GROUPS':
os.getenv('KEYCLOAK_MANAGE_LOCAL_GROUPS', False),
}
All you need to do now is have your client code handle the Keycloak authentication flow, retrieve the access_token for the user, and then use the access_token for the user in an Authorization
header in requests to your API.
Bearer <token>
Roles will be present in request.roles
with a role:
prefix, e.g.:
['role:admin', 'a4a9be6e-bd04-42f8-9377-27d9db82216f']
except for the authenticated user's pk field, e.g. for a user model using uuid's as primary key:
['role:user', 'a4a9be6e-bd04-42f8-9377-27d9db82216f']
where the pk can be used for checking object ownership.
Voila!
