It was designed for use by the University at Buffalo Center for Computational Research's [XDMoD Project](http://open.xdmod.org/), but is written to be generic and reusable. Setup ----- [](#setup) ### Automatic [](#automatic) If you're using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/), installing the module is as simple as: ``` 'composer require ubccr/simplesamlphp-module-authglobus 1.*' ``` ### From scratch [](#from-scratch) First [install SimpleSAMLphp](https://simplesamlphp.org/docs/stable/simplesamlphp-install) as normal. Then copy the contents of modules/ into your own modules directory. Rename default-disable to default-enable. Append the configuration found in config-templates/ to your own config. ### Running Globus Auth [](#running-globus-auth) You will need to first properly [register your application with Globus Auth](https://docs.globus.org/api/auth/developer-guide/#register-app). Thereafter, [head to your SimpleSAML configuration](../master/config-templates/authsources.php), and fill in the 'globus' module information in authsources.php as follows: ``` 'key': The client ID value you were provided when you registered your application, 'secret': The client secret. As per the documentation, make sure you save this. YOU CAN ONLY SEE IT ONCE!!! 'scope': You should have these set up within your Globus App registry. 'response_type': This should always be set to 'code'. 'redirect_uri': Should always be the linkback.php file + your endpoint. A la 'https://fakeaddress.buffalo.edu/simplesaml/module.php/globus/linkback.php' ``` ### Running Globus Auth as an External IDP [](#running-globus-auth-as-an-external-idp) Set up your SAML SP as normal ([see our LDAP Authentication guide](http://open.xdmod.org/simpleSAMLphp-ldap.html) for a similar example), with 'globus-idp' as the identity provider. Create an SSL self-signed certificate and place it your certificates folder. You will then need to esnure you configure your globus-idp metadata as follows: File: saml20-idp-hosted.php ``` $metadata['globus-idp'] = array( /* * The hostname for this IdP. This makes it possible to run multiple * IdPs from the same configuration. '__DEFAULT__' means that this one * should be used by default. */ 'host' => '__DEFAULT__', /* * The private key and certificate to use when signing responses. * These are stored in the cert-directory. */ 'privatekey' => '[[YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY]].pem', 'certificate' => '[[YOUR_PRIVATE_CERT]].crt', /* * The authentication source which should be used to authenticate the * user. This must match one of the entries in config/authsources.php. */ 'auth' => 'globus' ); ``` File: saml20-idp-remote.php ``` $metadata['globus-idp'] = array ( 'metadata-set' => 'saml20-idp-remote', 'entityid' => 'globus-idp', 'SingleSignOnService' => array ( 0 => array ( 'Binding' => 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-Redirect', 'Location' => 'https://your.endpoint/simplesaml/saml2/idp/SSOService.php', ), ), 'SingleLogoutService' => array ( 0 => array ( 'Binding' => 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-Redirect', 'Location' => 'https://your.endpoint/simplesaml/saml2/idp/SingleLogoutService.php', ), ), 'keys' => array ( 0 => array ( 'encryption' => true, 'signing' => true, 'type' => 'CERTTYPE', 'CERTTYPE' => '...', ), 1 => array ( 'encryption' => true, 'signing' => true, 'type' => 'CERTTYPE', 'CERTTYPE' => '...', ), ), 'NameIDFormat' => 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:transient', ); ``` Suggestions, Bugfixes, Feedback ------------------------------- [](#suggestions-bugfixes-feedback) While this module is used in the XDMoD Project, it is not officially supported as part of the overarching project or maintained as such.
