Provides the following on top of Fp/OpenIdBundle: - OpenID logins - Abstract User class that implements most of the annoying common stuff - Security Controller action for logging out - Session based on Authorization headers instead of cookies - JSON responses to login/logout requests - Server side of the reload-less OpenID login mechanism from - Dummy login mode for development and staging Installation ------------ [](#installation) - Install `ac/login-convenience-bundle` with composer - If using SQL: Add and run a migration to create User and OpenIdIdentity tables - Add ACLoginConvenienceBundle and FpOpenIdBundle to AppKernel - Delete everything from security.yml but this: ``` ac_login_convenience: secured_paths: - /important-stuff ``` - Add the following to your routing.yml: ``` ac_login_convenience: resource: "." type: "ac_login_convenience_routes" ``` - Optionally, if you want to use the Authentication header to receive the session key rather than a cookie, set this in config.yml: ``` framework: session: storage_id: ac_login_convenience.session.storage.auth_header ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Add users to your system with the `create-user` command. You can specify an OpenID identity path when doing so, which allows them to log in via that identity. Adding OpenID identities ------------------------ [](#adding-openid-identities) If you don't want to specify the identity in advance, add entries to the `ac_login_convenience.trusted_providers` config option for any OpenID providers that you trust to authenticate previously unknown users: ``` ac_login_convenience: trusted_providers: - https://somebody.trustworthy.com/openid ``` Any user who logs in via a trusted provider can have that identity matched via email address to existing users you've created. This does require that the provider supply the user's email via the "contact/email" AX field, but this is pretty common. Alternately, you can make your own OpenID registration system. After verifying in some secure way that an identity URL really does belong to a user, you can call the `associateIdentityWithUser` method on `ac_login_convenience.openid_user_manager`to allow logins for that user with that identity. Other options ------------- [](#other-options) These can be specified under the ac\_login\_convenience config section: - `dummy_mode`: If true, then instead of actually making OpenID checks on logins, the user can simply pick from a list of all the users in the database. This is useful for the dev environment, but obviously it should not be used on production systems. - `db_driver`: Defaults to `orm`, meaning that users and identities are accessed via Doctrine ORM. Alternately, you can specify `mongodb`. - `user_model_class`: You must use your own User class; specify the fully namespaced name of the class here. You should derive it from `Entity\AbstractEntityUser`or `Document\AbstractDocumentUser`, depending on which `db_driver` setting you are using. - `api_keys`: An optional hash map from user email addresses to API keys. If supplied, then clients can use an "Authorization: Key foobar" header to directly access your app as the given user with key "foobar", without having to go through the full OpenID-authentication and session-creation process. ### Health Score 23 — LowBetter than 27% of packages Maintenance0 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity15 Limited adoption so far Community14 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity56 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 81.7% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
