Relying Parties
|
|
###############
|
|
|
|
Relying Parties (RP) creation it's up to you. This is because is out of the scope in the core implementation of OIDC.
|
|
So, there are different ways to create your Clients (RP). By displaying a HTML form or maybe if you have internal thrusted Clients you can create them programatically.
|
|
|
|
OAuth defines two client types, based on their ability to maintain the confidentiality of their client credentials:
|
|
|
|
* ``confidential``: Clients capable of maintaining the confidentiality of their credentials (e.g., client implemented on a secure server with restricted access to the client credentials).
|
|
* ``public``: Clients incapable of maintaining the confidentiality of their credentials (e.g., clients executing on the device used by the resource owner, such as an installed native application or a web browser-based application), and incapable of secure client authentication via any other means.
|
|
|
|
Using the admin
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
We suggest you to use Django admin to easily manage your clients:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: ../images/client_creation.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
For re-generating ``client_secret``, when you are in the Client editing view, select "Client type" to be ``public``. Then after saving, select back to be ``confidential`` and save again.
|
|
|
|
Custom view
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
If for some reason you need to create your own view to manage them, you can grab the form class that the admin makes use of. Located in ``oidc_provider.admin.ClientForm``.
|
|
|
|
Some built-in logic that comes with it:
|
|
|
|
* Automatic ``client_id`` and ``client_secret`` generation.
|
|
* Empty ``client_secret`` when ``client_type`` is equal to ``public``.
|
|
|
|
Programmatically
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
You can create a Client programmatically with Django shell ``python manage.py shell``::
|
|
|
|
>>> from oidc_provider.models import Client
|
|
>>> c = Client(name='Some Client', client_id='123', client_secret='456', response_type='code', redirect_uris=['http://example.com/'])
|
|
>>> c.save()
|
|
|
|
