## What is Node-RED
|
|
|
|
> Node-RED is a programming tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services in new and interesting ways.
|
|
>
|
|
> It provides a browser-based editor that makes it easy to wire together flows using the wide range of nodes in the palette that can be deployed to its runtime in a single-click.

:::caution
|
|
This requires modification of the Node-RED `settings.js` file and installing additional Passport-js packages; see [Securing Node-RED](https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/runtime/securing-node-red#oauthopenid-based-authentication) documentation for further details.
|

|
|
|
|
## Preparation
|
|
|
|
The following placeholders are used in this guide:
|
|
|
|
- `authentik.company` is the FQDN of authentik.
|
|
- `nodered.company` is the FQDN of Node-RED.
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
This documentation lists only the settings that you need to change from their default values. Be aware that any changes other than those explicitly mentioned in this guide could cause issues accessing your application.
|
|

|
|
## authentik configuration
|
|
|
|
To support the integration of Node-RED with authentik, you need to create an application/provider pair in authentik.
|
|
|
|
### Create an application and provider in authentik
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
|
|
2. Navigate to **Applications** > **Applications** and click **New Application** to open the application wizard.
|
|
|
|
- **Application**: provide a descriptive name, an optional group for the type of application, the policy engine mode, and optional UI settings.
|
|
- **Choose a Provider type**: select **OAuth2/OpenID Connect** as the provider type.
|
|
- **Configure the Provider**: provide a name (or accept the auto-provided name), the authorization flow to use for this provider, and the following required configurations.
|
|
- Note the **Client ID**, **Client Secret**, and **slug** values because they will be required later.
|
|
- Set a `Strict` redirect URI to `https://nodered.company/auth/strategy/callback/`.
|
|
- Select any available signing key.
|
|
- **Configure Bindings** _(optional)_: you can create a [binding](/docs/add-secure-apps/bindings-overview/) (policy, group, or user) to manage the listing and access to applications on a user's **My applications** page.
|
|
|
|
3. Click **Submit** to save the new application and provider.
|
|
|
|
## Node-RED configuration
|
|
|
|
### Step 1
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
Group-based permissions are not implemented in the example below.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
Use npm to install `passport-openidconnect`.
|
|
|
|
Navigate to the Node-RED `node_modules` directory. This depends on your chosen install method. In the official Node-RED Docker container the `node_modules` directory is located in the data volume `data/node_modules/`. Alternatively, enter the Docker container with `docker exec -it nodered bash` and `cd /data/node_modules` to use npm within the container.
|
|
|
|
Run the command `npm install passport-openidconnect`.
|
|
|
|
### Step 2
|
|
|
|
Edit the Node-RED `settings.js` file (`/data/settings.js`) to use the external authentication source via `passport-openidconnect`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
adminAuth: {
|
|
type:"strategy",
|
|
strategy: {
|
|
name: "openidconnect",
|
|
label: 'Sign in with authentik',
|
|
icon:"fa-cloud",
|
|
strategy: require("passport-openidconnect").Strategy,
|
|
options: {
|
|
issuer: 'https://authentik.company/application/o/<application_slug>/',
|
|
authorizationURL: 'https://authentik.company/application/o/authorize/',
|
|
tokenURL: 'https://authentik.company/application/o/token/',
|
|
userInfoURL: 'https://authentik.company/application/o/userinfo/',
|
|
clientID: '<client_id>',
|
|
clientSecret: '<client_secret>',
|
|
callbackURL: 'https://nodered.company/auth/strategy/callback/',
|
|
scope: ['email', 'profile', 'openid'],
|
|
proxy: true,
|
|
verify: function(context, issuer, profile, done) {
|
|
return done(null, profile);
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
users: function(user) {
|
|
return Promise.resolve({ username: user, permissions: "*" });
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
```
