## Background Apache CloudStack currently support native, LDAP and SAML based authentication. The proposed idea is to write a new OAuth2 plugin which is UI-first and can perform Single-Sign-On (SSO) with 3-party identity providers such as Google, Facebook, Github etc and allows admins to manage the users/accounts. ## Proposed Tasks - Get started on basic CloudStack codebase and development (building and running CloudStack) - Setup dev/test environment to test/develop authentication plugin w/OAuth2 - R&D - OAuth2 protocol and libraries that may be integrated with CloudStack - Implement configuration: Global setting/options to enable/disable this plugin, specify the 3rd party providers (such as Google, Fb, Github etc) in both UI/backend - Implement authentication plugin and mechanism - Write tests and documentation, send pull request (with video/gif to demonstrate the feature) ### Relevant Skills - Java - Javascript/Vue - OAuth2 ## Difficulty Medium ## Potential Mentors ### Example and references https://oauth.net/code/java/ https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-boot-oauth2/ How to CloudStack Auth plugin: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/SAML+2.0+Plugin ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
