Explore OAuth?

LDAP has never worked, so let's remove it completely?
And perhaps explore getting OIDC to work with OAuth?
Context:
I was reading the latest https://selfh.st/ newsletter (which is excellent, recommended) and came across the Calibre Web Companion app.The only way I could get it to work was to edit the
Basic Configurationsettings at/admin/configand in theFeature Configurationchange theseLogin typesetting fromUse LDAP AuthenticationtoUse Standard Authenticationand then it worked great! (but I presume it'll break again as soon as the app restarts and goes back to LDAP)But whilst changing that setting I spotted there is also a
Use OAuthoption - and I couldn't help wonder if unlike LDAP that might actually work with Cloudron? -

Oh it's already been removed!
@nebulon said in LDAP error when first logging in as admin (and LDAP doesn't seem to work):
We have removed LDAP, so will close this thread for now.
And hence

That wasn't true. I restarted the app and my setting there stayed the same. Happy days!
Still might be worth exploring the OAuth authentication? Could that be made to work with Cloudron OIDC?

We gave up on LDAP integration because of https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/issues/2652
As for OIDC, I think upstream author doesn't want it. See https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/issues/2965 and https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/pull/2211

Although at this point the developer seemed potentially open to it https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/pull/2211#issuecomment-1133842946
