Purpose
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Flask-oidc is a library used across the Fedora infrastructure. For its
|
||
|
|
authentication it the oauth2client library is used. This is now deprecated and
|
||
|
|
no longer maintained. This will need to be replaced.

Conclusions
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Authlib is the new industry standard and looks to be a suitable replacement for
|
||
|
|
oauth2client. The flask-oidc code would need to be rewritten to replace all the
|
||
|
|
oauth2client code.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The flow of the code would need to be adjusted to work with the new library.
|
||
|
|
Google-auth and authlib were looked at for this investigation and it was
|
||
|
|
suggested that authlib looks a better replacemnt.

Proposed Roadmap
|
||
|
|
----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Find all instances of ouath2client code in the current flask-oidc code
|
||
|
|
2. Map the functionality of this code and what will be needed from the new library
|
||
|
|
3. Write the flow to replicate this functionality using the new library
|
||
|
|
4. Cut a new release using the updated code
|
||
|
|
5. (Optional) Update all appps in the Fedora infra which require this module
