Synapse Keycloak Adapter

A simple keycloak adapter for Matrix Synapse allowing to login into Matrix using Keycloak as an identity provider.

Disclaimer

WORK IN PROGRESS : THIS IS STILL NOT COMPLETELY FUNCTIONAL

We cannot guaranty this is 100% secure, we are still learning and doing this for fun. Enjoy!

Prerequisites

To use this adapter you need to have a running Keycloak Instance.

Go to the Official Keycloak Documentation to learn how to do that.

The easiest way to set up a Keycloak Instance is to use Docker Compose (More info here).

Getting started

Adapter only

If you only need the adapter you can run only this part :

With docker :

Run the following command after having replaced the environment variables with your own values :

docker run -e \

hoohoot/synapse-keycloak-adaper

With docker compose :

  1. Edit docker-compose-adapter-only.yml and edit the variables following your needs

  2. Start the adapter : docker-compose -f docker-compose-adapter-only.yml up -d

Complete setup
