This GEM provides a CLI to automate the generation of auth-config maps which can be used with the httpd auth pod for enabling external authentication.
Install as follows:
gem install httpd_configmap_generator
Generating an auth-config map can be done by running the httpd_configmap_generator tool
$ httpd_configmap_generator --help
httpd_configmap_generator 0.1.1 - External Authentication Configuration script
Usage: httpd_configmap_generator auth_type | update | export [--help | options]
supported auth_type: active-directory, ipa, ldap, saml, oidc
httpd_configmap_generator options are:
-V, --version Version of the httpd_configmap_generator command
-h, --help Show this message
Showing the usage for each authentication type or sub-command as follows:
$ httpd_configmap_generator ipa --help
| auth-type | Identity Provider/Environment | for usage: |
|---|---|---|
| active-directory | Active Directory domain realm join | README-active-directory |
| ipa | IPA, IPA 2-factor authentication, IPA/AD Trust | README-ipa |
| ldap | Ldap directories | README-ldap |
| saml | Keycloak, etc. | README-saml |
| OpenID-Connect (oidc) | Keycloak, etc. | README-oidc |
With the update subcommand, it is possible to add file(s) to the configuration
map as per the following usage:
$ httpd_configmap_generator update --help
Options:
-i, --input=<s> Input config map file
-o, --output=<s> Output config map file
-f, --force Force configuration if configured already
-d, --debug Enable debugging
-a, --add-file=<s> Add file to config map
-h, --help Show this message
The --add-file option can be specified multiple times, one per file to add
to a configuration map.
Supported file specification for the --add-file option are:
--add-file=file-path
--add-file=source-file-path,target-file-path
--add-file=source-file-path,target-file-path,file-permission
--add-file=file-url,target-file-path,file-permission
Where:
- file-url is an http URL
- file-permission can be specified as:
mode:owner:group
Examples:
The file ownership and permissions will be based on the files specified.
$ httpd_configmap_generator update \
--input=/tmp/original-auth-configmap.yaml \
--add-file=/etc/openldap/cacerts/primary-directory-cert.pem \
--add-file=/etc/openldap/cacerts/seconday-directory-cert.pem \
--output=/tmp/updated-auth-configmap.yaml
$ httpd_configmap_generator update \
--input=/tmp/original-auth-configmap.yaml \
--add-file=/tmp/uploaded-cert1,/etc/openldap/cacerts/primary-directory-cert.pem \
--add-file=/tmp/uploaded-cert2,/etc/openldap/cacerts/seconday-directory-cert.pem \
--output=/tmp/updated-auth-configmap.yaml
The file ownership and permissions will be based on the source files specified,
in this case the ownership and permissiong of the /tmp/uploaded-cert1
and /tmp/uploaded-cert2 files will be used.
$ httpd_configmap_generator update \
--input=/tmp/original-auth-configmap.yaml \
--add-file=/tmp/secondary-keytab,/etc/http2.keytab,600:apache:root \
--output=/tmp/updated-auth-configmap.yaml
$ httpd_configmap_generator update \
--input=/tmp/original-auth-configmap.yaml \
--add-file=http://aab-keycloak:8080/auth/realms/testrealm/protocol/saml/description,/etc/httpd/saml2/idp-metadata.xml,644:root:root \
--output=/tmp/updated-auth-configmap.yaml
When downloading a file by URL, a target file path and file ownership/mode must be specified.
With the export subcommand, it is possible to export a file from the configuration
map as per the following usage:
$ httpd_configmap_generator export --help
Options:
-i, --input=<s> Input config map file
-l, --file=<s> Config map file to export
-o, --output=<s> The output file being exported
-f, --force Force configuration if configured already
-d, --debug Enable debugging
-h, --help Show this message
Example:
Extract the sssd.conf file out of the auth configuration map:
$ httpd_configmap_generator export \
--input=/tmp/external-ipa.yaml \
--file=/etc/sssd/sssd.conf \
--output=/tmp/sssd.conf
Container for configuring external authentication for the httpd auth pod. It is based on the auth httpd container and generates the httpd auth-config map needed to enable external authentication.
$ git clone https://github.com/ManageIQ/httpd_configmap_generator.git
$ cd httpd_configmap_generator
$ docker build . -t manageiq/httpd_configmap_generator:latest
$ docker run --privileged manageiq/httpd_configmap_generator:latest &
Getting the httpd_configmap_generator container id:
$ CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_ID="`docker ps -l -q`"
While the httpd_configmap_generator tool can be run in the container by first getting into a bash shell:
$ docker exec -it $CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_ID /bin/bash -i
The tool can also be executed directly as follows:
Example for generating a configuration map for IPA:
$ docker exec $CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_ID httpd_configmap_generator ipa \
--host=appliance.example.com \
--ipa-server=ipaserver.example.com \
--ipa-domain=example.com \
--ipa-realm=EXAMPLE.COM \
--ipa-principal=admin \
--ipa-password=smartvm1 \
-o /tmp/external-ipa.yaml
--host above must be the DNS of the application exposing the httpd auth pod,
i.e. ${APPLICATION_DOMAIN}
Copying the new auth configmap back locally:
$ docker cp $CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_ID:/tmp/external-ipa.yaml ./external-ipa.yaml
The new configmap can then be applied to the auth httpd pod and then redeployed to take effect:
$ oc replace configmaps httpd-auth-configs --filename ./external-ipa.yaml
When completed with httpd_configmap_generator, the container can simply be stopped and/or removed:
$ docker stop $CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_ID
$ docker rmi --force manageiq/httpd_configmap_generator:latest
The httpd-configmap-generator service account must be added to the httpd-scc-sysadmin SCC before the Httpd Configmap Generator can run.
Create the httpd-scc-sysadmin SCC:
$ oc create -f templates/httpd-scc-sysadmin.yaml
Include the httpd-configmap-generator service account with the new SCC:
$ oc adm policy add-scc-to-user httpd-scc-sysadmin system:serviceaccount:<your-namespace>:httpd-configmap-generator
Verify that the httpd-configmap-generator service account is now included in the httpd-scc-sysadmin SCC:
$ oc describe scc httpd-scc-sysadmin | grep Users
Users: system:serviceaccount:<your-namespace>:httpd-configmap-generator
As basic user
$ oc create -f templates/httpd-configmap-generator-template.yaml
$ oc get templates
NAME DESCRIPTION PARAMETERS OBJECTS
httpd-configmap-generator Httpd Configmap Generator 6 (all set) 3
Deploy the Httpd Configmap Generator
$ oc new-app --template=httpd-configmap-generator
Check the readiness of the Httpd Configmap Generator
$ oc get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
httpd-configmap-generator-1-txc34 1/1 Running 0 1h
For working with the httpd_configmap_generator script in the httpd-configmap-generator pod, it is necessary to get the pod name reference below:
$ CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_POD=`oc get pods | grep "httpd-configmap-generator" | cut -f1 -d" "`
$ oc exec $CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_POD -- bash -c 'httpd_configmap_generator ipa ...
Example configuration:
$ oc exec $CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_POD -- bash -c 'httpd_configmap_generator ipa \
--host=appliance.example.com \
--ipa-server=ipaserver.example.com \
--ipa-domain=example.com \
--ipa-realm=EXAMPLE.COM \
--ipa-principal=admin \
--ipa-password=smartvm1 \
-o /tmp/external-ipa.yaml'
--host above must be the DNS of the application exposing the httpd auth pod,
i.e. ${APPLICATION_DOMAIN}
Copying the new auth configmap back locally:
$ oc cp $CONFIGMAP_GENERATOR_POD:/tmp/external-ipa.yaml ./external-ipa.yaml
The new configmap can then be applied to the auth httpd pod and then redeployed to take effect:
$ oc replace configmaps httpd-auth-configs --filename ./external-ipa.yaml
To generate a new auth configuration map it is recommended to redeploy the httpd_configmap_generator pod first to get a clean environment before running the httpd_configmap_generator tool.
When done generating an auth-configmap, the httpd_configmap_generator pod can simply be scaled down:
$ oc scale dc httpd-configmap-generator --replicas=0
or deleted if no longer needed:
$ oc delete all -l app=httpd-configmap-generator
$ oc delete pods -l app=httpd-configmap-generator
