PoC for ASP.Net Core Keycloak Integration

Simple example for securing an AspNetCore Web App with Keycloak.

The example consists of two modules:

• WebApi - A simple stateless REST Web-Service that is secured with JWT authentication.
• WebApp - A simple Web App that is secured via Keycloak.

The WebApp module demonstrates a basic integration with Keycloak by leveraging the built-in OpenID Connect support in AspNetCore which is additionally augmented with Keycloak specific configuration, like client role extraction. Further more, the WebApp calls the WebApi with an Access-Token provided after a successful authentication, to demonstrate calls to backend services.

The following features are currently supported:

• Single-Sign in with Keycloak
• Logout with Keycloak
• Access client specific role information (resource_access claim)
• Automatic Access-Token refresh in background
• Extract Access-Token to call backend-services.
