QA (public) » openQA Project (public)

Motivation¶

Again the identity provider we use from openSUSE is making some problems, e.g. see #88751 , so we thought about investing in alternatives that we can use in parallel to the existing way. We already have support for other identity provides but not at the same time

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: openqa.opensuse.org offers to login over both the existing provider as well as another one, e.g. using github

Observation¶

In the openQA configuration one can currently choose between FakeAuth, OpenID and OAuth2. Setting auth/method in the config file changes that globally. Only one method can be used at the same time. Changing it would require all logins to go through the new method. And Login always immediately redirects to the configured provider.

Suggestions¶

• DONE: Add a provider column to the Users table
• Make username unique across providers (so the new unique constraint would be username,provider and not just username)
• Allow configuring multiple auth methods at the same time
• Allow configuring multiple providers per auth method at the same time at least for OAuth2 (to be able to support e.g. ipsilon and GitHub at the same time)
• Ensure existing data defaults to the active provider upon migration or continues to work as-is with manual intervention required
• Provide UX in the web UI e.g. expose buttons for providers to choose from
• Make it clear in the UI which authentication provider is used
