OAuth 2.0 OpenID Connect Loopback and Keycloak

Question

I cannot connect to Keycloak from Loopback.

I am trying to use keycloak-connect lib:

https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-nodejs-connect

This is my current server/boot/root.js

 module.exports = function (server) { var session = require('express-session'); var Keycloak = require('keycloak-connect'); var memoryStore = new session.MemoryStore(); var keycloak = new Keycloak({ store: memoryStore }); server.use(session({ secret: 'xxx', resave: false, saveUninitialized: true, store: memoryStore, })) server.use(keycloak.middleware({})); server.get('/*', keycloak.protect(), function (req, resp) { resp.send('hello'); }) };' 

Seems pretty simple, but it gets stuck in a redirect loop.

I also tried replacing

 server.use(session 

with

  server.use(keycloak 

But then see "Unable to read property" keyclay token "undefined"

Stuck on this for a while and tried everything. Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance!

It seems you might need to tell your Keycloak instance to use the memory store that you create when it is initialized, for example:

var keycloak = new Keycloak({ store: memoryStore });

Hope this issue is resolved.
