This version is still in development and is not considered stable yet. For the latest stable version, please use Spring Security 6.5.3! |
Getting Started
If you are just getting started with Spring Security Authorization Server, the following sections walk you through creating your first application.
System Requirements
Spring Security Authorization Server requires a Java 17 or higher Runtime Environment.
Installing Spring Security Authorization Server
The easiest way to begin using Spring Security Authorization Server is by creating a Spring Boot-based application. You can use start.spring.io to generate a basic project or use the default authorization server sample as a guide. Then add Spring Boot’s starter for Spring Security Authorization Server as a dependency:
-
Maven
-
Gradle
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-oauth2-authorization-server</artifactId>
</dependency>
implementation "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-oauth2-authorization-server"
See Installing Spring Boot for more information on using Spring Boot with Maven or Gradle. |
Alternatively, you can add Spring Security Authorization Server without Spring Boot using the following example:
-
Maven
-
Gradle
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-security-oauth2-authorization-server</artifactId>
<version>7.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
implementation "org.springframework.security:spring-security-oauth2-authorization-server:7.0.0-SNAPSHOT"
Developing Your First Application
To get started, you need the minimum required components defined as a @Bean
. When using the spring-boot-starter-oauth2-authorization-server
dependency, define the following properties and Spring Boot will provide the necessary @Bean
definitions for you:
server:
port: 9000
logging:
level:
org.springframework.security: trace
spring:
security:
user:
name: user
password: password
oauth2:
authorizationserver:
client:
oidc-client:
registration:
client-id: "oidc-client"
client-secret: "{noop}secret"
client-authentication-methods:
- "client_secret_basic"
authorization-grant-types:
- "authorization_code"
- "refresh_token"
redirect-uris:
- "http://127.0.0.1:8080/login/oauth2/code/oidc-client"
post-logout-redirect-uris:
- "http://127.0.0.1:8080/"
scopes:
- "openid"
- "profile"
require-authorization-consent: true
Beyond the Getting Started experience, most users will want to customize the default configuration. The next section demonstrates providing all of the necessary beans yourself. |
Defining Required Components
If you want to customize the default configuration (regardless of whether you’re using Spring Boot), you can define the minimum required components as a @Bean
in a Spring @Configuration
.
These components can be defined as follows:
@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfig {
@Bean (1)
@Order(1)
public SecurityFilterChain authorizationServerSecurityFilterChain(HttpSecurity http)
throws Exception {
http
.oauth2AuthorizationServer((authorizationServer) ->
authorizationServer
.oidc(Customizer.withDefaults()) // Enable OpenID Connect 1.0
)
.authorizeHttpRequests((authorize) ->
authorize
.anyRequest().authenticated()
)
// Redirect to the login page when not authenticated from the
// authorization endpoint
.exceptionHandling((exceptions) -> exceptions
.defaultAuthenticationEntryPointFor(
new LoginUrlAuthenticationEntryPoint("/login"),
new MediaTypeRequestMatcher(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
)
);
return http.build();
}
@Bean (2)
@Order(2)
public SecurityFilterChain defaultSecurityFilterChain(HttpSecurity http)
throws Exception {
http
.authorizeHttpRequests((authorize) -> authorize
.anyRequest().authenticated()
)
// Form login handles the redirect to the login page from the
// authorization server filter chain
.formLogin(Customizer.withDefaults());
return http.build();
}
@Bean (3)
public UserDetailsService userDetailsService() {
UserDetails userDetails = User.withDefaultPasswordEncoder()
.username("user")
.password("password")
.roles("USER")
.build();
return new InMemoryUserDetailsManager(userDetails);
}
@Bean (4)
public RegisteredClientRepository registeredClientRepository() {
RegisteredClient oidcClient = RegisteredClient.withId(UUID.randomUUID().toString())
.clientId("oidc-client")
.clientSecret("{noop}secret")
.clientAuthenticationMethod(ClientAuthenticationMethod.CLIENT_SECRET_BASIC)
.authorizationGrantType(AuthorizationGrantType.AUTHORIZATION_CODE)
.authorizationGrantType(AuthorizationGrantType.REFRESH_TOKEN)
.redirectUri("http://127.0.0.1:8080/login/oauth2/code/oidc-client")
.postLogoutRedirectUri("http://127.0.0.1:8080/")
.scope(OidcScopes.OPENID)
.scope(OidcScopes.PROFILE)
.clientSettings(ClientSettings.builder().requireAuthorizationConsent(true).build())
.build();
return new InMemoryRegisteredClientRepository(oidcClient);
}
@Bean (5)
public JWKSource<SecurityContext> jwkSource() {
KeyPair keyPair = generateRsaKey();
RSAPublicKey publicKey = (RSAPublicKey) keyPair.getPublic();
RSAPrivateKey privateKey = (RSAPrivateKey) keyPair.getPrivate();
RSAKey rsaKey = new RSAKey.Builder(publicKey)
.privateKey(privateKey)
.keyID(UUID.randomUUID().toString())
.build();
JWKSet jwkSet = new JWKSet(rsaKey);
return new ImmutableJWKSet<>(jwkSet);
}
private static KeyPair generateRsaKey() { (6)
KeyPair keyPair;
try {
KeyPairGenerator keyPairGenerator = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA");
keyPairGenerator.initialize(2048);
keyPair = keyPairGenerator.generateKeyPair();
}
catch (Exception ex) {
throw new IllegalStateException(ex);
}
return keyPair;
}
@Bean (7)
public JwtDecoder jwtDecoder(JWKSource<SecurityContext> jwkSource) {
return OAuth2AuthorizationServerConfiguration.jwtDecoder(jwkSource);
}
@Bean (8)
public AuthorizationServerSettings authorizationServerSettings() {
return AuthorizationServerSettings.builder().build();
}
}
This is a minimal configuration for getting started quickly. To understand what each component is used for, see the following descriptions:
1 | A Spring Security filter chain for the Protocol Endpoints. |
2 | A Spring Security filter chain for authentication. |
3 | An instance of UserDetailsService for retrieving users to authenticate. |
4 | An instance of RegisteredClientRepository for managing clients. |
5 | An instance of com.nimbusds.jose.jwk.source.JWKSource for signing access tokens. |
6 | An instance of java.security.KeyPair with keys generated on startup used to create the JWKSource above. |
7 | An instance of JwtDecoder for decoding signed access tokens. |
8 | An instance of AuthorizationServerSettings to configure Spring Security Authorization Server. |
