Issues
------

- [Please report issues on YunoHost bugtracker](https://dev.yunohost.org/projects/yunohost/issues) (no registration needed).

Requirements
------------

- Nginx-extras from Debian wheezy-backports
- lua-json
- lua-ldap

**OR**

- Nginx "Openresty" flavored : http://openresty.org/
- lua-ldap

Installation
------------

* Fetch the repository

```bash
git clone https://github.com/Kloadut/SSOwat /etc/ssowat
```


Nginx configuration
-------------------

* Add SSOwat's Nginx configuration (`http{}` scope)

```bash
nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/ssowat.conf
```

```nginx

lua_shared_dict cache 10m;
init_by_lua_file   /etc/ssowat/init.lua;
access_by_lua_file /etc/ssowat/access.lua;

```

You can also put the `access_by_lua_file` directive in a `server{}` scope if you want to protect only a vhost.


SSOwat configuration
--------------------

```
mv /etc/ssowat/conf.json.example /etc/ssowat/conf.json
nano /etc/ssowat/conf.json
```

If you use YunoHost, you may want to edit the `/etc/ssowat/conf.json.persistent` file, since the `/etc/ssowat/conf.json` will often be overwritten.

## Available parameters

These are the SSOwat's configuration parameters. Only `portal_domain` is required, but it is recommended to know the others to fully understand what you can do with SSOwat.

#### portal_domain

Domain of the authentication portal. It has to be a domain, IP addresses will not work with SSOwat (**Required**)

#### portal_path

URI of the authentication portal (**default**: `/ssowat/`). This path **must** end with “`/`”.

#### portal_port

Web port of the authentication portal (**default**: `443` for `https`, `80` for `http`)

#### portal_scheme

Whether authentication should use secure connection or not (**default**: `https`)

#### domains

List of handled domains (**default**: similar to `portal_domain`)

#### ldap_host

LDAP server hostname (**default**: `localhost`)

#### ldap_group

LDAP group to search in (**default**: `ou=users,dc=yunohost,dc=org`)

#### ldap_identifier

LDAP user identifier (**default**: `uid`)

#### ldap_attributes

User's attributes to fetch from LDAP (**default**: `["uid", "givenname", "sn", "cn", "homedirectory", "mail", "maildrop"]`)

#### ldap_enforce_crypt

Let SSOwat re-encrypt weakly-encrypted LDAP passwords into the safer sha-512 (crypt) (**default**: `true`)

#### allow_mail_authentication

Whether users can authenticate with their mail address (**default**: `true`)

#### login_arg

URI argument to use for cross-domain authentication (**default**: `sso_login`)

#### additional_headers

Array of additionnal HTTP headers to set once user is authenticated (**default**: `{ "Remote-User": "uid" }`)

#### session_timeout

The session expiracy time limit in seconds, since the last connection (**default**: `86400` / one day)

#### session_max_timeout

The session expiracy time limit in seconds (**default**: `604800` / one week)

#### protected_urls

List of priorily protected URLs and/or URIs (**by default, every URL is protected**)

#### protected_regex

List of regular expressions to be matched against URLs **and** URIs to protect them

#### skipped_urls

List of URLs and/or URIs that will not be affected by SSOwat. This must be a JSON array, and SSOwat automatically adds itself to this array.

#### skipped_regex

List of regular expressions to be matched against URLs **and** URIs to ignore them

#### unprotected_urls

List of URLs and/or URIs that will not be affected by SSOwat **unless user is authenticated**

#### unprotected_regex

List of regular expressions to be matched against URLs **and** URIs to ignore them **unless user is authenticated**

#### redirected_urls

Array of URLs and/or URIs to redirect and their redirect URI/URL (**example**: `{ "/": "example.org/subpath" }`)

#### redirected_regex

Array of regular expressions to be matched against URLS **and** URIs and their redirect URI/URL (**example**: `{ "example.org/megusta$": "example.org/subpath" }`)

#### users

3-level array containing usernames and their ACL (allow/deny), each consisting of allowed URLs along with an App name; fake user “*” is for global ACL (**example**: `{ "*": { "allow": { "kload.fr/blog": "Blog" } }, "kload": { "allow": { "kload.fr/admin/": "Admin" } }, "visitor": { "deny": { "kload.fr/blog": "no access" } } }`)

#### logout

Associative array; when logging out of SSOwat, any existing cookie that is found as a key of this array triggers the associated logout URL. This only works on `http[s]://[*.]portal_domain/`, though. (**example**: `{ "dcxd": "https://example.org/dotclear/admin/index.php?logout=1" }`)

#### default_language

Language code used by default in views (**default**: `en`)
