Based on the Jahia Authentication module, this module allows you to create and connect a user as a result of an open authentication.

Versions

The module version was bumped to 4.0.0 due to the introduction of a dependency to jahia-authentication 2.0.0, which itself requires Jahia 8.2.3.0, effectively making jcr-auth-provider require Jahia 8.2.3.0

Improvements

  • Introduced User creation mode UI option to specify if a user should either be created at a Server Level, at a Site Level or should not be created at all (for example when using an external provider such as LDAP). by @dgriffon in #58#61
  • Change configuration file behaviour to allow custom modification. by @jsinovassin in #72
