Install
-------

[](#install)

### Requirements

[](#requirements)

- PHP >= 5.4
- Composer
- MediaWiki 1.22

### Via Composer

[](#via-composer)

```
$ composer require mediawiki/guzzle-json-auth
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To Setup the authentication, add the following lines to your LocalSettings.php and change the values to your needs:

```
# Setup GuzzleJsonAuth
$wgGuzzleJsonAuthUrl = 'http://yourapplication.com/your_json_endpoint';

$wgGuzzleJsonRequestBaseKey = 'User';
$wgGuzzleJsonRequestUsernameKey = 'username';
$wgGuzzleJsonRequestPasswordKey = 'password';

$wgGuzzleJsonResponseBaseKey = 'user';
$wgGuzzleJsonResponseUsernameKey = 'username';
$wgGuzzleJsonResponseRealNameKey = 'real_name';
$wgGuzzleJsonResponseEmailKey = 'email';

// Load and initialize the GuzzleJsonAuth extension
require_once("$IP/extensions/GuzzleJsonAuth/GuzzleJsonAuth.php");
$wgAuth = new \MediaWiki\GuzzleJsonAuth\GuzzleJsonAuth();
```

Authenticated users will be created in your Wikis database, but without password.

The authentication endpoint needs to return at least tne username, real name and email of the authenticated user as result. If the authentication failed, it must not return the username, otherwise it the user will be logged in nonetheless.

This extension will fall back to local authentication, if the user could not be authenticated externally.
