Test & learning application to utilize a VueJs frontend with a Go backend speaking with Keycloak as identity provider.

• the Go backend is exposing a REST endpoint /auth (POST) on localhost:5000, taking a JSON {"username":"[email protected]","password":"test"} and is delivering a JWT back if the username was [email protected], else HTTP/403 Forbidden
• the VueJs frontend is providing a login screen on http://localhost:8080 and is logging the user into the /main route on success

• pull the jboss/keycloak image docker pull jboss/keycloak

• start the image docker run -p 38080:8080 --name keycloak -e KEYCLOAK_USER=admin -e KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD=admin jboss/keycloak

• login to the keycloak admin console on http://localhost:38080/auth/ > Users > Add User > create the [email protected] user

• when the user is successfully created, on the Credentials tab, set test as new password for this user (make sure you switch Temporary off)

• start the backend cd backend; go run cmd/server/server.go

• prep frontend node modules cd frontend; yarn

• start the frontend yarn serve (in frontend) -> go to http://localhost:8080/ to use the frontend, login with [email protected]
