keycloak：检查旧密码是否匹配，如果匹配则更改为另一个

Question

Java with maven dependency "keycloak-admin-cli"

I have this code:

  keycloakService.findUserByEmailOrUsername( user.getKeycloakUsername() )
                    .ifPresent( userRepresentation -> {
                        //Check for old password
                        if ( userRepresentation.getCredentials() != null ) {
                            for (CredentialRepresentation c : userRepresentation.getCredentials()) {
                                if ( CredentialRepresentation.PASSWORD.equals( c.getType() ) ) {
                                    if ( userDTO.getOldpassword().equals( c.getValue() ) ) {
                                        //Das alte Passwort stimmt mit dem in der Datenbank überein. Wir können updaten
                                        //Neues Passwort setzen
                                        CredentialRepresentation credential = new CredentialRepresentation();
                                        credential.setType( CredentialRepresentation.PASSWORD );
                                        credential.setValue( userDTO.getPassword() );
                                        credential.setTemporary( false );
                                        userRepresentation.setCredentials( Collections.singletonList( credential ) );
                                    } else {
                                        throw new RuntimeException( "Your current password does not match", null );
                                    }
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    } );

I checked with the debugger and I get the correct user. "userRepresentation" is not null. But the credentials of the user are always null.

Also if I only want to set a new password for the user, it does not update:

                keycloakService.findUserByEmailOrUsername( user.getKeycloakUsername() )
                    .ifPresent( userRepresentation -> {
                        CredentialRepresentation credential = new CredentialRepresentation();
                        credential.setType( CredentialRepresentation.PASSWORD );
                        credential.setValue( userDTO.getPassword() );
                        credential.setTemporary( false );
                        userRepresentation.setCredentials( Collections.singletonList( credential ) );
                    } );

I don't get an error message, keycloak just doesn't update.

Can anyone show me an example how I can check the old password and change it to another one? thx

Answer 1

For the updating the password use :

userRessource.get(userId).resetPassword(credential);

see this example : https://gist.github.com/thomasdarimont/0c136d0b8d339b997928e9bef225f941

But for checking the actual credential, I didn't manage to check if there's one, as you say userRepresentation.getCredentials() is always null, even after reseting a new password.

Answer 2

Try using the UserResource instead of the UserRepresentation.

userResource.get(userId).credentials() instead of userRepresentation.getCredentials() should work, but it does feel more like a workaround.

As of 7/26/2021 getCredentials keeps always returning null.
