Description

This plugin enables user authentication and Single Sign-On via an OpenID provider:

• Support OpenID Authentication 2.0
• Support Google accounts
• On the fly creation of users in sonar user referential

Installation

1. Install the OpenID plugin through the Update Center or download it into the SONAR_HOME/extensions/plugins directory
2. Restart the Sonar server

Usage

The following properties must be added to $SONAR_HOME/conf/sonar.properties:

# This property must be set to true
sonar.authenticator.createUsers=true

# Enable OpenID plugin
sonar.security.realm=openid

# URL of OpenID provider
sonar.openid.providerUrl=https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id

# URL of logout page
sonar.openid.providerLogoutUrl=https://www.google.com/accounts/Logout
 
# URL of Sonar server
sonar.openid.sonarServerUrl=http://localhost:9000

Note that the library openid4java generates many INFO logs. Edit the file conf/logback.xml and add the following loggers to log only warnings and errors:

<logger name="org.openid4java">
  <level value="WARN"/>
</logger>

Note for Tomcat

When Sonar WAR is deployed into Tomcat, characters in names that have utf-8 encodings break the OpenID validation. The attribute URIEncoding="UTF-8" must be added to the element <Connector/> in server.xml.
