Using Kubernetes?

If you're using Kuberentes, I would strongly encourage you to read this blog post that describes how to use Keycloak in a manner that secures APIs independently of the application. For code samples see https://github.com/hkiang01/keycloak-demo

Quickstart

1. Log into keycloak admin console (see docker compose)

2. Create "Clients" realm (upper left)

3. Within "Clients" realm, create a client called "app" with the following URLs

   

4. Create a user with username and password set to "test"

5. docker-compose down && docker-compose build && docker-compose up

6. Navigate to localhost:8000/login
