TheIdServer Duende Web Server

TheIdServer use Duende IdentityServer, for a commercial use you need to acquire a license.

The server obtains configuration from appsettings.json, appsettings.{Environment}.json, command-line arguments, or environment variables.

Read Configuration in ASP.NET Core for more information.

Installation

From Terraform

The Terraform Helm module theidserver make the deployement of TheIdServer easy.
To deploy the Duende version choose the aguacongas/theidserver.duende image.

provider "helm" {
  kubernetes {
    config_path = var.kubeconfig_path
  }
}

module "theidserver" {
  source = "Aguafrommars/theidserver/helm"

  host = "theidserver.com"
  tls_issuer_name = "letsencrypt"
  tls_issuer_kind = "ClusterIssuer"

  image = {
    repository = "aguacongas/theidserver.duende"
    pullPolicy = "Always"
    tag = "next"
  }
}

From Helm

The theidserver Helm chart is available in hub.helm.sh.

Install

helm repo add aguafrommars https://aguafrommars.github.io/helm
helm install aguafrommars theidserver --set theidserver.mysql.db.password=my-P@ssword --set image.repository=aguacongas/theidserver.duende

By default the helm char install the IS4 version, to install the Duende version your need to set image.repository=aguacongas/theidserver.duende.

Upgrade

Follow upgrades intstructions in the chart readme.

From Docker

A server's Linux image is available on Docker Hub.

sample/MultiTiers/Aguacongas.TheIdServer.Private/Dockerfile.Duende-private demonstrates how to create an image from the server image to run a private Linux server container.

sample/MultiTiers/Aguacongas.TheIdServer.Public/Dockerfile.Duende-public illustrates how to create an image from the server image to run a public Linux server container.

Read Hosting ASP.NET Core images with Docker over HTTPS to set up the HTTPS certificate.

Kubernetes sample

/sample/Kubernetes/README.md contains a sample to set up a solution with Kubernetes.

The sample use the IS4 version but you just need to use aguacongas/theidserver.duende as docker image in the deployement file.

From dotnet new template

The template TheIdServer.Duende.Template can be use to setup a TheIdServer solution.

Install

dotnet new -i TheIdServer.Duende.Template

Use

> dotnet new tisduende -o TheIdServer

Configure Signing Key

Keys rotatation (recommanded)

TheIdServer can be configured with a keys rotation mechanism instead of a single key.
Read Keys rotation to know how to configure it.

"IdentityServer": {
  "Key": {
    "Type": "KeysRotation",
    "StorageKind": "EntityFramework"
  }
}

From file

"IdentityServer": {
  "Key": {
    "Type": "File",
    "FilePath": "{path to the .pfx}",
    "Password":  "{.pfx password}"
  }
}

From store

Read Example: Deploy to Azure Websites

Configure the Email service

By default, the server uses SendGrid to send Emails by calling the API at /api/email

"SendGridUser": "your user",
"SendGridKey": "your SendGrid key"

Use your API

If you prefer to use your Email sender, implement a Web API receiving a POST request with the json:

{
  "subject": "Email subject",
  "message": "Email message",
  "addresses": [
    "an-address@aguacongas.con"
  ]
}

And update the EmailApiAuthentication configuration section:

"EmailApiAuthentication": {
  "Authority": "https://localhost:5443",
  "ApiUrl": "https://localhost:5443/api/email",
  "ClientId": "public-server",
  "ClientSecret": "84137599-13d6-469c-9376-9e372dd2c1bd",
  "Scope": "theidserveradminapi",
  "HttpClientName": "email"
}

If you want to use the same authentication configuration and token for both EmailApi and PrivateServer, you can simplify it by sharing the same HttpClientName.

"EmailApiAuthentication": {
  "ApiUrl": "https://localhost:5443/api/email",
  "HttpClientName": "is4"
}

Configure the 2fa authenticator issuer

By default, the issuer for the 2fa authenticator is Aguacongas.TheIdServer.
To update this value, set AuthenticatorIssuer with your issuer.

"AuthenticatorIssuer": "TheIdServer"

Configure the API

Authentication

The ApiAuthentication section defines the authentication configuration for the API.

"DisableStrictSsl": true

Configure Forwarded Headers

The section ForwardedHeadersOptions is bound to the class Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.ForwardedHeadersOptions. 

"ForwardedHeadersOptions": {
  "ForwardedHeaders": "All"
}

Force HTTPS scheme

Some reverses proxies don't' forward headers. You can force HTTP requests schemes to https by settings ForceHttpsScheme.

"ForceHttpsScheme": true

Configure the provider hub

The Aguacongas.AspNetCore.Authentication library dynamically configures external providers.
In a load-balanced configuration, the provider hub informs other running instances that an external provider configuration changes.
The SignalR section defines the configuration for both the SignalR hub and the client.

"SignalR": {
  "HubUrl": "https://theidserverprivate/providerhub",
  "HubOptions": {
    "EnableDetailedErrors": true
  },

Configure claims providers

Claims provider provides details on claims proivder configuration.

Configure token cleaner

The token cleaner task removes expired tokens periodically. To configure the interval, use TokenCleanupInterval.

"TokenCleanupInterval": "00:05:00"

To disable the task, use DisableTokenCleanup.

"DisableTokenCleanup":  true

The task is not enabled on proxy server.

Configure Dynamic client registration allowed contacts a host

The server supports OpenID Connect Dynamic Client Registration.

New client registration is allowed to users with the Is4-Writer role by sending the user access token or to contacts defined in DynamicClientRegistrationOptions section.

"DynamicClientRegistrationOptions": {
  "AllowedContacts": [
    {
      "Contact": "certification@oidf.org",
      "AllowedHosts": [
        "www.certification.openid.net"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

It this case, the client registration request must contain the contacts array.

request sample

{
    "client_name": "oidc_cert_client gUPPBlHIEAqNOYR",
    "grant_types": [
        "authorization_code"
    ],
    "response_types": [
        "code"
    ],
    "redirect_uris": [
        "https://www.certification.openid.net/test/a/theidserver/callback"
    ],
    "contacts": [
        "certification@oidf.org"
    ]
}

Configure Jwt request validator

Tokens returned by request_uri parameter are validated using the rules defined in TokenValidationParameters section. By default, the following rules are defined.

"TokenValidationParameters": {
  "ValidateIssuer": false,
  "ValidateAudience": false,
  "ValidateIssuerSigningKey": false,
  "ValidateLifetime": false,
  "RequireAudience": false,
  "RequireExpirationTime": false,
  "RequireSignedTokens": false
}

To enable JWT request uri, set EnableJwtRequestUri to true in IdentityServerOptions:Endpoints

"IdentityServerOptions": {
  "Endpoints": {
    "EnableJwtRequestUri": true
  }
},

Configure WS-Federation endpoint

Read Aguacongas.IdentityServer.WsFederation.Duende

Configure CIBA notification service

Use the client to override the default configuration

The server and the blazor app integrate Aguafrommars/DynamicConfiguration. Most of the configuration can be ovveriden using the blazor app.

Use DynamicConfigurationOptions to define the dynamic configuration provider.

"DynamicConfigurationOptions": {
  "ProviderType": "Aguacongas.DynamicConfiguration.Redis.RedisConfigurationProvider, Aguacongas.DynamicConfiguration.Redis"
}

Use RedisConfigurationOptions section to configure the Redis db.

"RedisConfigurationOptions": {
  "ConnectionString": "localhost",
  "HashKey": "Aguacongas.TheIdServer.Duende",
  "Channel": "Aguacongas.TheIdServer.Duende.Channel"
}

Health checks

The server expose an health checks enpoint you can use for docker on kubernetes at /healthz.

The endpoit return a json reponse depending on the store kind used and redis dependencies :

{
  "status": "Healthy",
  "results": {
    "ConfigurationDbContext": {
      "status": "Healthy"
    },
    "OperationalDbContext": {
      "status": "Healthy"
    },
    "ApplicationDbContext": {
      "status": "Healthy"
    },
    "DynamicConfigurationRedis": {
      "status": "Healthy"
    }
  }
}
