Node-RED Authentication with Gitlab

Node-RED plugin for authenticating users with Gitlab.

This modules lets you restrict access to the Node-RED editor to specific gitlab users. Code-base and README from node-red-auth-github.

Note: this requires Node-RED 0.17 or later

Install

In your Node-RED user directory, typically ~/.node-red:

$ npm install strassi/node-red-auth-gitlab2

Usage

Register a new gitlab application

To enable access control with gitlab, you must first register a new application on your gitlab account.

Once created, you will be provided a Client ID and Client Secret that you will need to use to configure the authentication plugin.

Configure adminAuth

Access control for the Node-RED editor is configured in your settings.js file using the adminAuth property.

adminAuth: require('node-red-auth-gitlab2')({
    clientID: GITLAB_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: GITLAB_CLIENT_SECRET,
    baseURL: "http://localhost:1880/",
gitlabURL: "https://your.gitlab.local/",
    users: [
       { username: "pepe",permissions: ["*"]}
    ]
})

The baseURL property is the URL used to access the Node-RED editor.

The users property is the list of gitlab users who are allowed to access the editor. It is the same as used by adminAuth as described in the security documentation, but without the password property.

A default user can be specified by adding a default property to the options object:

    users: [
       ...
    ],
    default: {
        permissions: "read"
    }
