auth-demo-keycloak-casbin-python

This is a demo with keycloak, the casbin python is tested with mongodb

setup the infra

• open this in the vscode devcontainer, then you will have below services running
  • keycloak
  • postgres for the keycloak
  • mongodb
  • mongoexpress to check mongodb (well can also run this outside)
  • and this app where code is written to play with casbin, keycloak to simulation kinds of authentication and authorization scenarios

run an external pdadmin4 to take a closer look at the keycloak tables

docker run -p 8319:80 \              
    -e '[email protected]' \
    -e 'PGADMIN_DEFAULT_PASSWORD=SuperSecret' \
    -d dpage/pgadmin4

Then we can inspect the gateway ip address of the postgres container:

docker inspect 520d665e3be8 | grep Gateway

We use the gateway ip because the pdadmin4 is running outside the bridge network of the docker-compose microservices

setup the keycloak

• go to localhost:8080
• login with the username / password in docker-compose for keycloak
• go to top left master, then Add Realm, key in name, then create
• now create a user, in the left panel, click users, then click add user
• here i am going to create a user, after key in name and email, go to credential and setup a password
• now lets use the user to logim the Keycloak Account Console at http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/realm_001/account/#/, will be asked to change to a new password password2. This user can also change his email, first name, last name (BUT NOT USERNAME) in the personal info tab.
• at last lets secure first app, lets go back to the admin console, and select the realm.
• go to clients (left panel), then create
