OIDC Client

A Laravel package for delegating authentication to an OpenID Provider.

This package is an heavenly modified fork of cabinetoffice / oidc-client — Bitbucket

Requirements

• PHP 8.3+
• Laravel 11+
• Composer 2

Installation

Begin by adding this package to your depedencies with the command:

composer require maicol07/laravel-oidc-client

If you have opted out from auto discovery, you'll need to add the following line to the list of registered service providers in config/app.php:

Maicol07\OIDCClient\OIDCServiceProvider::class

Edit your config/auth.php file to use OpenID as the authentication method for your users:

'guards' => [
    'web' => [
        'driver' => 'oidc',
        ...
    ],
    ...
],

Configuration

You can set the following environment variables to adjust the package settings:

• OIDC_CLIENT_ID: Client ID of your app. This is commonly provided by your OIDC provider.
• OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET: Client secret of your app. This is commonly provided by your OIDC provider.
• OIDC_PROVIDER_URL: URL of your OIDC provider. This is used if your provider supports OIDC Auto Discovery.
• OIDC_PROVIDER_NAME: This is a short name for your OpenID provider, which will only appears in your OpenID routes. Do not use spaces. Defaults to oidc
• OIDC_CALLBACK_ROUTE_PATH: A path (with or without leading slash) to append to the provider name, to make the callback route path. Defaults to callback Example with the default values: oidc/callback (OIDC_PROVIDER_NAME + / + OIDC_CALLBACK_ROUTE_PATH)
• OIDC_VERIFY: Verify SSL when sending requests to the server. Defaults to true. (Optional: You can set OIDC_CERT_PATH to an SSL certificate path if you set this option to false)
• OIDC_HTTP_PROXY: If you have a proxy, set it here.
• OIDC_SCOPES: A list of scopes, separated by a comma (,). Defaults to ['openid']. Example of valid value: openid,email
• OIDC_AUTHORIZATION_ENDPOINT_QUERY_PARAMS: A list of query parameters to add to the authorization endpoint encoded as a JSON object. Example of valid value: {"response_type":"code"}
• OIDC_DISABLE_STATE_MIDDLEWARE_FOR_POST_CALLBACK: A boolean to disable the registration of the OIDCStateMiddleware middleware.
  This middleware rebuilds the session token held in the state parameter of a POST request to the callback route.

You can find other options to set and their env variables in config/oidc.php. Note that some options are not required (like endpoints) if you use OIDC auto discovery!

You can also publish the config file (config/oidc.php) if you want:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Maicol07\OIDCClient\OIDCServiceProvider"

How to use

Once everything is set up, you can replace your login system with a call to the route route('oidc.login'). For logouts, use the route route('oidc.logout').

You can set the following environment variables to specify the routes/URLs you want your users to be redirected to upon successful authentication/logout: OIDC_REDIRECT_PATH_AFTER_LOGIN and OIDC_REDIRECT_PATH_AFTER_LOGOUT.

You may want to create your own User model. If yes, then you must extend Maicol07\OIDCClient\User in order to get auth working.

Check your auth.providers.users.model config value: it must be set to your custom User model or to Maicol07\OIDCClient\User instead.
