Authentication through Gitea

Overview

One of the login options for dex uses the Gitea OAuth2 flow to identify the end user through their Gitea account.

When a client redeems a refresh token through dex, dex will re-query Gitea to update user information in the ID Token. To do this, dex stores a readonly Gitea access token in its backing datastore. Users that reject dex's access through Gitea will also revoke all dex clients which authenticated them through Gitea.

Configuration

Register a new OAuth consumer with Gitea ensuring the callback URL is (dex issuer)/callback. For example if dex is listening at the non-root path https://auth.example.com/dex the callback would be https://auth.example.com/dex/callback.

The following is an example of a configuration for examples/config-dev.yaml:

connectors:
- type: gitea
  # Required field for connector id.
  id: gitea
  # Required field for connector name.
  name: Gitea
  config:
    # Credentials can be string literals or pulled from the environment.
    clientID: $GITEA_CLIENT_ID
    clientSecret: $GITEA_CLIENT_SECRET
    redirectURI: http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback
    # optional, default = https://gitea.com
    baseURL: https://gitea.com
