OIDC for Nextcloud?

[fbartels]

I tried looking up which oidc plugin for Nextcloud I last gave a try, but I was unable to find which one it was.

In the end I needed to disable the plugin as Nextcloud kept constantly logging me out of all my sessions. So before you roll the update out I would recommend to make a long term test with all the apps that are part of the Nextcloud eco system (Desktop apps, apps on mobile for Nextcloud itself, but also Talk, etc).

@girish Is this integrated in the package yet? I'm currently using the social login plugin which works more or less but I'd love to migrate

@fbartels I think we use https://github.com/nextcloud/user_oidc . You are right about the testing, this is why it's not merged yet . There's too many things to test ...

@andreasdueren the work has been done but it's not integrated yet.

It sure is a lot of testing for stuff that is not supported by nextcloud itself...

I myself use the nextcloud mobile app for some things. No idea how it works with OIDC...

Perhaps create a new unstable experimental Nexcloud-OIDC package that has OIDC baked in and let us all do the testing?

[girish]

@jdaviescoates yes, absolutely, that is the plan . To enable both OIDC and LDAP in the same package and allow willing users to test OIDC by setting some flag somewhere.

@girish I'm about to set up a new NC instance and would love to have this integrated sooner than later so I can onboard people with it directly instead of having to migrate them later on.

[andreasdueren]

@girish is there maybe a way to enable OIDC in the package but leave it disabled for people to enable it manually?

[girish]

@andreasdueren the work is there in this branch - https://git.cloudron.io/packages/nextcloud-app/-/tree/oidc but we haven't tested it. It will take some time to test and publish it. Will try to get it out next week.

@girish thank you that would be amazing. Let me know if you need help testing

@andreasdueren unfortunately, the oidc plugin broke - https://github.com/nextcloud/user_oidc/issues/1024
