ArchivesSpace Oauth

Configure ArchivesSpace as a service provider (SP) for oauth authentication. The plugin delegates authentication to the configured identity provider (IDP).

Strategies tested:

  • CAS
  • Developer [built-in for testing]
  • SAML

Overview

Enabling this plugin will:

  • Provide Identity Provider (IDP) Sign In link/s
  • The link will redirect the user to the IDP login portal
  • If successful the user will have a user record created in ArchivesSpace
  • User group membership and permissions are handled within ArchivesSpace
  • The oauth plugin handles (by delegating) authentication only

Installation

Download this plugin to $ARCHIVESSPACE_DIR/plugins and initialize it:

cd /path/to/archivesspace/plugins
# with wget and unzip
wget https://github.com/lyrasis/aspace-oauth/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
mv aspace-oauth-master aspace-oauth

# or with git
git clone https://github.com/lyrasis/aspace-oauth.git

# now download the gems
cd /path/to/archivesspace
./scripts/initialize-plugin.sh aspace-oauth

      fetch_raw_info: ->(s, o, t, user_info) {  { email: "#{user_info['user']}@ivory-tower.edu" } }
    }
  }
]

# add the plugin to the list
AppConfig[:plugins] << "aspace-oauth"

Add / change providers as needed and refer to the project documentation for configuration details. There are many more configuration options than shown above.

For testing SAML there is a helpful docker image:

docker run --name=test-saml-idp -d \
  --net=host \
  -e SIMPLESAMLPHP_SP_ENTITY_ID=http://localhost:3000 \
  -e SIMPLESAMLPHP_SP_ASSERTION_CONSUMER_SERVICE=http://localhost:3000/auth/saml/callback \
  kristophjunge/test-saml-idp

The test SAML service will be available at: http://localhost.

SAML

To generate a cert / key use a command like:

openssl genrsa -out rsaprivkey.pem 2048
openssl req -new -x509 -key rsaprivkey.pem -out rsacert.pem
