Install

https://www.npmjs.com/package/fastify-keycloak-adapter

Fastify Version

• Fastify 5 -> npm i fastify-keycloak-adapter
• Fastify 4 -> npm i [email protected]
• Fastify 3 -> npm i [email protected] (deprecated)

Usage

import fastify from 'fastify'
import keycloak, { KeycloakOptions } from 'fastify-keycloak-adapter'

const server = fastify()

const opts: KeycloakOptions = {
  appOrigin: 'http://localhost:8888',
  keycloakSubdomain: 'keycloak.yourcompany.com/auth/realms/realm01',
  clientId: 'client01',
  clientSecret: 'client01secret'
}

server.register(keycloak, opts)

Configuration

• appOrigin app url, used for redirect to the app when user login successfully (required)

• keycloakSubdomain keycloak subdomain, endpoint of a realm resource (required)

• useHttps set true if keycloak server uses https (optional, defaults to false)

• clientId client id (required)

• clientSecret client secret (required)

• scope client scope of keycloak (optional, string[], defaults to ['openid'])

• callback Relative or absolute URL to receive the response data (optional, defaults to /)

• retries The number of times to retry before failing. (optional, number, defaults to 3)

• logoutEndpoint route path of doing logout (optional, defaults to /logout)

• excludedPatterns string array for non-authorized urls (optional, support ?, * and ** wildcards)

• autoRefreshToken set true for refreshing token automatically when token has expired (optional, defaults to false)

• disableCookiePlugin set true if your application register the fastify-cookie plugin itself. Otherwise fastify-cookie will be registered by this plugin, because it's mandatory. (optional, defaults to false)

• disableSessionPlugin set true if your application register the fastify-session plugin itself. Otherwise fastify-session will be registered by this plugin, because it's mandatory. (optional, defaults to false)

• userPayloadMapper(userPayload) defined the fields of fastify.session.user (optional)

• unauthorizedHandler(request, reply) is a function to customize the handling (e.g. the response) of unauthorized requests (optional)

• bypassFn(request) is a function that returns true if you want to stop the normal authentication workflow and allow the request. It will prevent userPayloadMapper from being called and fastify.session.user from being generated.

• usePostLogoutRedirect set true to enable compatibility with Keycloak versions 18.0.0 and later, where post_logout_redirect_uri and id_token_hint are used instead of redirect_uri during logout. When set to false, the plugin will default to using the old redirect_uri for backward compatibility. (optional, defaults to false)

Configuration example

import keycloak, { KeycloakOptions, UserInfo } from 'fastify-keycloak-adapter'
import fastify, { FastifyInstance } from 'fastify'

const server: FastifyInstance = fastify()

const opts: KeycloakOptions = {
  appOrigin: 'http://localhost:8888',
  keycloakSubdomain: 'keycloak.mycompany.com/auth/realms/myrealm',
  useHttps: false,
  usePostLogoutRedirect: false,
  clientId: 'myclient01',
  clientSecret: 'myClientSecret',
  logoutEndpoint: '/logout',
  excludedPatterns: ['/metrics', '/manifest.json', '/api/todos/**'],
  callback: '/hello'
}

server.register(keycloak, opts)

Set userPayloadMapper

defined the fields of fastify.session.user, use the payload from JWT token

use DefaultToken in default case

or you should define the type by yourself, in case the keycloak server has custom payload

import { KeycloakOptions, DefaultToken } from 'fastify-keycloak-adapter'

const userPayloadMapper = (tokenPayload: unknown) => ({
  account: (tokenPayload as DefaultToken).preferred_username,
  name: (tokenPayload as DefaultToken).name
})

const opts: KeycloakOptions = {
  // ...
  userPayloadMapper: userPayloadMapper
}

Set unauthorizedHandler

Provides a custom handler for unauthorized requests.

import { FastifyReply, FastifyRequest } from 'fastify'
import { KeycloakOptions } from 'fastify-keycloak-adapter'

const unauthorizedHandler = (request: FastifyRequest, reply: FastifyReply) => {
  reply.status(401).send(`Invalid request`)
}

const opts: KeycloakOptions = {
  // ...
  unauthorizedHandler: unauthorizedHandler
}

Set bypassFn

Provides a function that returns true if you want to stop the normal authentication workflow and allow the request.

import { FastifyReply, FastifyRequest } from 'fastify'
import { KeycloakOptions } from 'fastify-keycloak-adapter'

const bypassFn = (request: FastifyRequest) => {
  return Math.random() * 6 < 1 // russian roulette of security DO NOT USE IT !
}

const opts: KeycloakOptions = {
  // ...
  bypassFn: bypassFn
}

Disable mandatory plugin registration

Use the options to disable the cookie and session plugin registration, in case you want to initialize the plugins yourself, to provide your own set of configurations for these plugins.

import fastify from 'fastify'
import fastifyCookie from '@fastify/cookie'
import session from '@fastify/session'
import keycloak, { KeycloakOptions } from 'fastify-keycloak-adapter'

const server = fastify()

server.register(fastifyCookie)
server.register(session, {
  secret: '<SOME_SECRET>',
  cookie: {
    secure: false
  }
})

const opts: KeycloakOptions = {
  // ...
  disableCookiePlugin: true,
  disableSessionPlugin: true
}
server.register(keycloak, opts)

Get login user

use request.session.user

server.get('/users/me', async (request, reply) => {
  const user = request.session.user
  return reply.status(200).send({ user })
})

Get OpenID Connect (OIDC) tokens

in some case, you may want to handle the id_token (or access_token, refresh_token) by yourself

use request,session.grant can get the GrantResponse object

const id_token = request.session.grant.response?.id_token
console.log('id_token', id_token)
const access_token = request.session.grant.response?.access_token
console.log('access_token', access_token)
const refresh_token = request.session.grant.response?.refresh_token
console.log('refresh_token', refresh_token)
