通用的openid -connect客户端库（server-keycloak）

Question

Keycloak is my OpenID Connect Provider. My legacy application which uses a local authentication mechanism now needs to be upgraded to use the standard OpenId Connect. I use Jboss 5 as the application server on which my legacy applications are deployed. The legacy application uses java 6 which is another reason, I cannot use keycloak client library directly.

From the official documentation it seems that (client) support for JBoss 5 does not exist. I would therefore like to use a library to do the work for me. Any recommendations on the libraries? I dont find a lot of examples out there on the web.

Also, is there any need for client libraries at all, since there are REST API's exposed which I can consume directly?

Answer 1

您可以检查keycloak-admin-client ，它使用Keycloak REST API连接到KeyCloak服务器。

Answer 2

I had to finally settle for google's client API.

The support for openID connect is still Beta and there has not been an update to the library for the past nine months. So had to directly parse the JWT tokens instead of the library doing the work for me. The library can be used with JAVA 5 and above which is a big plus for legacy applications.
