QR-based login for id.tilde.green

Post by alexlehm »

I would like to get a QR-based login method for the Keycloak service, I started using the website of linkding on my Firetv and that is very cumbersome to enter the password since it has a virtual keyboard with the tv remote and it would be useful to have a QR-based login that picks up the login on a mobile device that is already active or open a login window that is then using the login/password on the mobile or a computer browser. This is similar to the Login of e.g. AppleTV+ in a Android app

I will take a look if a module to do this exists for Keycloak and make a suggestion

If you find one, please share it

I've also thought about the posibility of using a device login (ie, somehow keycloak (or another service custom-implemented as an IdP for KeyCloak) gives you a code, which you input to [link]tilde.green/tgci/link-dvc/[/link], and then login on your phone, but i don't know of any that do that.

I am pretty sure there is a external module that can do that, I have to look if I can find something.

I don't think that is an alternate IDP, more like a differnent login option, maybe that is plugged into Keycloak directly

On a sidenote, I have decided to get a yubikey or a similar security key, which means that having additional login methods would be useful for that.
