#-# See following endpoints properties if the provider is not an XWiki instance.
#-# If not indicated, it will be asked to the user.
# oidc.xwikiprovider=http://http://xwikiorg-node1.xwikisas.com//xwiki/oidc
#-# The generic OpenId Connect endpoints to use to communicate with the provider.
#-# Not needed in case of XWiki based provider.
# oidc.endpoint.authorization=http://http://xwikiorg-node1.xwikisas.com//xwiki/oidc/authorization
# oidc.endpoint.token=http://http://xwikiorg-node1.xwikisas.com//xwiki/oidc/token
# oidc.endpoint.userinfo=http://http://xwikiorg-node1.xwikisas.com//xwiki/oidc/userinfo
#-# The pattern to use to generate the XWiki user name
#-# The following variables are available:
#-# oidc.user.subject: the unique id of the user in the provider
#-# oidc.user.mail: the mail of the user
#-# oidc.user.familyName : the last name of the user
#-# oidc.user.givenName: the first name of the user
#-# oidc.provider: the URL of the XWiki provider (only when a XWiki provider is used)
#-# oidc.provider.host: the host of the provider URL
#-# oidc.provider.path: the path of the provider URL
#-# oidc.provider.protocol: the protocol (usually https) of the provider URL
#-# oidc.provider.port: the port of the provider URL
#-# oidc.issuer: the issuer URI
#-# oidc.issuer.host: the host of the issuer URI
#-# oidc.issuer.path: the path of the issuer URI
#-# oidc.issuer.scheme: the scheme (usually https) of the issuer URI
#-# oidc.issuer.port: the port of the issuer URI
#-#
#-# The suffix ".clean" can be added to the variable name to get a cleaned value
#-# where ".", ":", ",", "@", "^" characters and "\s" (all forms of white spaces) are removed.
#-#
#-# The default is:
# oidc.user.nameFormater=${oidc.issuer.host.clean}-${oidc.user.subject.clean}
#-# The OpenID Connect client identifier used by the authenticator.
#-#
#-# The default is the automatically generated unique id of the XWiki instance.
# oidc.idtokenclaims=xwiki_instance_id
#-# The custom claims to request to the provider for the UserInfo
#-#
#-# The available custom claims are:
#-# xwiki_groups: the groups of a user (used by the authenticator to synchronize group membership between the provider and XWiki and also available to a listener)
#-# xwiki_user_<fieldname>: the suffix to use to request any field in the user profile document
#-# The default is:
# oidc.userinfoclaims=xwiki_user_accessibility,xwiki_user_company,xwiki_user_displayHiddenDocuments,xwiki_user_editor,xwiki_user_usertype
#-# The client identifier used by the authentication.
#-# The default is the identifier of the XWiki instance.
# oidc.clientid=
#-# Disable the OpenId Connect authenticator
# oidc.skipped=r thin
Customization
Templates
The authenticator use a template to ask the user for the target provider when it's not provided in the configuration. This template can be overwritten trough the standard template system.
The name of the template is oidc/client/provider.vm.
Listeners
It's possible to implement an event listener and be notified during user profile update to add more to this process or do other things after it:
- org.xwiki.contrib.oidc.event.OIDCUserUpdating to modify the user profile before it being saved
- org.xwiki.contrib.oidc.event.OIDCUserUpdated to do something after the user profile has been saved
