	Software Heritage - Authentication
	==================================

	``swh-auth`` is a set of utility libraries related to user authentication
	in applications and services based on the use of `Keycloak`_ and `OpenID Connect`_.

	`Keycloak`_ is an open source software enabling single sign-on (SSO) with identity
	and access management.

	`OpenID Connect`_ (OIDC) is an authentication layer on top of `OAuth 2.0`_, widely
	used in modern web applications and services.

	``swh-auth`` notably offers the following features:

	- the ``swh.auth.keycloak.KeycloakOpenIDConnect`` class to ease the
	interaction with a Keycloak server

	- a ``pytest`` plugin with the ``keycloak_oidc`` fixture to mock Keycloak
	responses in unit tests

	- generic backends, views and middlewares to easily plug OpenID Connect authentication
	in any `Django`_ or `Django REST framework`_ application
