🔧 Configuration

Google OAuth2 Setup

1. Go to the Google Cloud Console
2. Create a new project or select an existing one
3. Enable the Google OAuth2 API:
   • Go to "APIs & Services" > "Library"
   • Search for "Google OAuth2"
   • Click "Enable"
4. Configure the OAuth consent screen:
   • Go to "APIs & Services" > "OAuth consent screen"
   • Choose "Internal" if using Google Workspace, or "External" if not
   • Fill in the application name and other required fields
   • Add the necessary scopes (email, profile)
5. Create OAuth 2.0 credentials:
   • Go to "APIs & Services" > "Credentials"
   • Click "Create Credentials" > "OAuth client ID"
   • Choose "Web application"
   • Add authorized redirect URIs:
     • For local development: http://localhost:8081
     • For production: https://your-domain.com
   • Save your Client ID and Client Secret

Environment Variables

The following environment variables are required:

• CLIENT_ID: Google OAuth2 client ID (obtained from steps above)
• ALLOWED_DOMAIN: Authorized email domain (e.g., "company.com")
• EXTERNAL_IP: VPN server's external IP address
• OPENVPN_DIR: Directory containing OpenVPN configuration files (default: /etc/openvpn)

Create a .env file:

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your configuration

Example .env file:

CLIENT_ID=your-google-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com
ALLOWED_DOMAIN=yourcompany.com
EXTERNAL_IP=203.0.113.1
OPENVPN_DIR=/etc/openvpn

🛠️ Development

The project includes a Makefile to help with common development tasks:

First Time Setup

make dev-setup    # Install Poetry, initialize git, and install dependencies

Common Commands

make install      # Install project dependencies
make run         # Run development server
make test        # Run test suite
make coverage    # Run tests with coverage report
make format      # Format code with black and isort
make lint        # Run linting checks
make clean       # Clean temporary files and builds

Test Coverage

To run tests with coverage reporting:

make coverage

This will:

• Run all tests with coverage tracking
• Generate a terminal report showing missing lines
• Create an HTML coverage report in coverage_html/

View the HTML coverage report:

make coverage-open  # On macOS
# Or open coverage_html/index.html in your browser

Package Management

make build       # Build package distribution
make develop     # Install package locally in editable mode

Publishing

make publish-test  # Publish to Test PyPI
make publish      # Publish to PyPI

You can also use Poetry directly for development tasks:

poetry install    # Install dependencies
poetry run pytest # Run tests
poetry run black . # Format code
poetry run flake8 # Lint code

🔒 Security Considerations

• All authentication is performed through Google OAuth2
• Configuration files are generated temporarily and immediately deleted after download
• Domain restriction ensures only authorized users can access the portal
• HTTPS is required in production
