ckanext-keycloak - Keycloak authentication extension

Ckanext-keycloak is a extension for enalbing the user authentication with Keycloak, an open source software product to allow single sign-on with Identity Management and Access Management aimed at modern applications and services.

This extension provides an ability to let users use access-token from Keycloak server to access CKAN functions via CKAN REST Api.

Notes:

  • A new user will be created automatically in ckan database for the corresponding keycloak user if it does not exist.

  • Original ckan authentication still works normally with this extension.

This extension was developed and tested under CKAN-2.7.3 and Keycloak-2.5.5
