Integrate with Gitea Gitea

Gitea

Support level: Community

What is Gitea

Gitea is a community managed lightweight code hosting solution written in Go. It is published under the MIT license.

-- https://gitea.io/

:::note This is based on authentik 2022.10.1 and Gitea 1.17.3 installed using the official docker image https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/install-with-docker/. Instructions may differ between versions. :::

Preparation

The following placeholders will be used:

  • authentik.company is the FQDN of authentik.
  • gitea.company is the FQDN of Gitea.

Step 1

In authentik, create an OAuth2/OpenID Provider (under Applications/Providers) with these settings:

:::note Only settings that have been modified from default have been listed. :::

General Settings

  • Redirect URIs: https://gitea.company/user/oauth2/authentik/callback

Protocol Settings

  • Name: Gitea
  • Signing Key: Select any available key

:::note Take note of the Client ID and Client Secret, you'll need to give them to Gitea in Step 3. :::

Step 2

In authentik, create an application (under Applications/Applications) which uses this provider. Optionally apply access restrictions to the application using policy bindings.

:::note Only settings that have been modified from default have been listed. :::

  • Name: Gitea
  • Slug: gitea-slug
  • Provider: Gitea

Step 3

Navigate to the Authentication Sources page at https://gitea.company/admin/auths and click Add Authentication Source

Change the following fields

Add Authentication Source and you should be done. Your Gitea login page should now have a Sign in With followed by the authentik logo which you can click on to sign-in to Gitea with Authentik creds.

Step 4 (optional Claims for authorization management)

:::note This step is optional and shows how to set claims to control the permissions of users in gitea by adding them to groups. :::

Define Groups

The following groups will be used:

  • gituser for normal Gitea users.
  • gitadmin for Gitea users with administrative permissions.
  • gitrestricted for restricted Gitea users.

:::note Users who are in none of these groups will not be able to log in to gitea. :::

In authentik, create three groups (under Directory/Groups) with the Name as mentioned above and leave other settings untouched.

:::note You can add Members to the groups now or anytime later. :::

Create Custom Property Mapping

In authentik, create a custom property mapping (under Customization/Property Mappings) which has the type Scope Mapping.

:::note Only settings that have been modified from default have been listed. :::

  • Name: authentik gitea OAuth Mapping: OpenID 'gitea'
  • Scope name: gitea

And as Expression set the following:

gitea_claims = {}
if request.user.ak_groups.filter(name="gituser").exists():
    gitea_claims["gitea"]= "user"
if request.user.ak_groups.filter(name="gitadmin").exists():
    gitea_claims["gitea"]= "admin"
if request.user.ak_groups.filter(name="gitrestricted").exists():
    gitea_claims["gitea"]= "restricted"

return gitea_claims

Add the custom Property Mapping to the Gitea Provider

In authentik, edit the Gitea provider (under Applications/Providers) by clicking the pencil Icon.

Unfold the Advanced protocol settings and activate these Mappings:

  • authentik default OAuth Mapping: OpenID 'email'
  • authentik default OAuth Mapping: OpenID 'profile'
  • authentik default OAuth Mapping: OpenID 'openid'
  • authentik gitea OAuth Mapping: OpenID 'gitea'

Click Update and the configuration authentik is done.

Configure Gitea to use the new claims

:::note Gitea must set ENABLE_AUTO_REGISTRATION: true. :::

Navigate to the Authentication Sources page at https://gitea.company/admin/auths and edit the authentik Authentication Source.

Change the following fields

  • Additional Scopes: email profile gitea
  • Required Claim Name: gitea
  • Claim name providing group names for this source. (Optional): gitea
  • Group Claim value for administrator users. (Optional - requires claim name above): admin
  • Group Claim value for restricted users. (Optional - requires claim name above): restricted

Update Authentication Source and you should be done.

Users without any of the defined groups should no longer be able to log in. Users of the group gitadmin should have administrative privileges, and users in the group gitrestricted should be restricted.

Helm Chart Configuration

authentik can be configured automatically in Gitea Kubernetes deployments via it's Helm Chart.

:::note This is based on authentik 2022.8.2, Gitea v17.2, and Gitea Helm Chart v6.0.1. Instructions may differ between versions. :::

Add the following to the Gitea Helm Chart values.yaml file:

gitea:
    oauth:
        - name: "authentik"
          provider: "openidConnect"
          key: "CLIENT_ID_FROM_AUTHENTIK" #Step 1
          secret: "CLIENT_SECRET_FROM_AUTHENTIK" #Step 1
          autoDiscoverUrl: "https://authentik.company/application/o/gitea-slug/.well-known/openid-configuration"
          iconUrl: "https://goauthentik.io/img/icon.png"
          scopes: "email profile"

Kubernetes Secret

Alternatively you can use a Kubernetes secret to set the key and secret values.

Create a Kubernetes secret with the following:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
    name: gitea-authentik-secret
type: Opaque
stringData:
    key: "CLIENT_ID_FROM_AUTHENTIK" #Step 1
    secret: "CLIENT_SECRET_FROM_AUTHENTIK" #Step 1

Add the following to the Gitea Helm Chart values.yaml file:

gitea:
    oauth:
        - name: "authentik"
          provider: "openidConnect"
          existingSecret: gitea-authentik-secret
          autoDiscoverUrl: "https://authentik.company/application/o/gitea-slug/.well-known/openid-configuration"
          iconUrl: "https://goauthentik.io/img/icon.png"
          scopes: "email profile"
