Package org.keycloak.authentication.authenticators.browser

Class ScriptBasedAuthenticator

java.lang.Object
org.keycloak.authentication.authenticators.browser.ScriptBasedAuthenticator
All Implemented Interfaces:
Authenticator, Provider
public class ScriptBasedAuthenticator extends Object implements Authenticator
An Authenticator that can execute a configured script during authentication flow.

Scripts must at least provide one of the following functions:

  1. authenticate(..) which is called from Authenticator.authenticate(AuthenticationFlowContext)
  2. action(..) which is called from Authenticator.action(AuthenticationFlowContext)

Custom Authenticator's should at least provide the authenticate(..) function. The following script Bindings are available for convenient use within script code.

  1. script the ScriptModel to access script metadata
  2. realm the RealmModel
  3. user the current UserModel
  4. session the active KeycloakSession
  5. authenticationSession the current AuthenticationSessionModel
  6. httpRequest the current HttpRequest
  7. LOG a Logger scoped to ScriptBasedAuthenticator

Note that the user variable is only defined when the user was identified by a preceeding authentication step, e.g. by the UsernamePasswordForm authenticator.

Additional context information can be extracted from the context argument passed to the authenticate(context) or action(context) function.

An example ScriptBasedAuthenticator definition could look as follows: 

 

   AuthenticationFlowError = Java.type("org.keycloak.authentication.AuthenticationFlowError");

   function authenticate(context) {

     var username = user ? user.username : "anonymous";
     LOG.info(script.name + " --> trace auth for: " + username);

     if (   username === "tester"
         && user.getAttribute("someAttribute")
         && user.getAttribute("someAttribute").contains("someValue")) {

         context.failure(AuthenticationFlowError.INVALID_USER);
         return;
     }

     context.success();
   }

    • authenticate

      public void authenticate(AuthenticationFlowContext context)
      Description copied from interface: Authenticator
      Initial call for the authenticator. This method should check the current HTTP request to determine if the request satifies the Authenticator's requirements. If it doesn't, it should send back a challenge response by calling the AuthenticationFlowContext.challenge(Response). If this challenge is a authentication, the action URL of the form must point to /realms/{realm}/login-actions/authenticate?code={session-code}&execution={executionId} or /realms/{realm}/login-actions/registration?code={session-code}&execution={executionId} {session-code} pertains to the code generated from AuthenticationFlowContext.generateAccessCode(). The {executionId} pertains to the AuthenticationExecutionModel.getId() value obtained from AuthenticationFlowContext.getExecution(). The action URL will invoke the action() method described below.
