gluestick

gluestick is NotNet's one stop shop for authentication and account onboarding. It connects Discord and GitHub OAuth to NotNet's LDAP server (LLDAP), manages email inboxes with Migadu, and configures Tailscale ACLs. gluestick is developed in house by [NotNite](https://notnite.com/) and [skip](https://slice.zone/), written in Next.js. ## Deploying Note: gluestick is heavily designed for NotNet specific infrastructure, and as such, may require modification for your use. You will need: - A recent enough Node.js version - An [LLDAP](https://github.com/lldap/lldap) server - Ports are assumed to not have been changed from the defaults - A [Discord application](https://discord.com/developers/applications) for authentication - Set the redirect URL to `(your domain)/oauth/discord/redirect` - Both a [GitHub](https://github.com/settings/developers) OAuth app and personal access token - The OAuth app will be used for authentication, and the PAT will be used for inviting users automatically - Set the redirect URL to `(your domain)/oauth/github/redirect` ### Cloning & config First, clone the repository: ```shell git clone https://git.n2.pm/NotNet/gluestick.git cd gluestick ``` After cloning, create an `.env.local` with the following contents (in `key=value` form, separated by newlines): - `DISCORD_CLIENT_ID`: the client ID from your Discord application - `DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET`: the client secret from your Discord application - `DISCORD_ALLOWED_GUILDS`: a comma separated list of guild IDs - Users must be in one of these guilds to register with gluestick - Enable "Advanced > Developer Mode" in your Discord client to copy IDs - `GITHUB_CLIENT_ID`: the client ID from your GitHub OAuth app - `GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET`: the client secret from your GitHub OAuth app - `GITHUB_TOKEN`: a personal access token, with the ability to modify organization members - `GITHUB_ORG`: an organization name - Users must be in this organization to register with gluestick - `LDAP_HOST`: the IP address or hostname of your LLDAP server - `LDAP_DC`: your LDAP dc - `LDAP_BIND_USER`: the bind user of your LLDAP server - `LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD`: the password of the bind user - `BASE_DOMAIN`: the domain gluestick is deployed on, with a protocol and trailing slash - This domain will be used for OAuth redirects - if you are testing locally, set it to `http://localhost:3000/` - `DATABASE_URL`: a Prisma-like path to your database Example config: ```env DISCORD_CLIENT_ID=1100257729844621324 DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET=redacted DISCORD_ALLOWED_GUILDS=986268106416611368,805978396974514206 LDAP_HOST=auth LDAP_DC=dc=n2,dc=pm LDAP_BIND_USER=admin LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD=redactedd GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=2c946381e680acfa5e4a GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=redacted GITHUB_TOKEN=redacted GITHUB_ORG=n2pm BASE_DOMAIN=https://gluestick.n2.pm/ DATABASE_URL=file:./database.db ``` ### Generating code gluestick makes use of code generation from both `prisma` and `graphql-codegen`. Before you can deploy it, you need to run their CLI tools. First, install required dependencies: ```shell npm i ``` Because the LLDAP GraphQL API is locked behind authentication, and of a quirk with `graphl-codegen` configuration files, we need to set a temporary environment variable to generate GraphQL code. Run the `get-token.js` helper script and set the environment variable from its output: ```shell node get-token.js export GRAPHQL_CODEDGEN_AUTH=... ``` Then, generate the GraphQL and database code: ```shell GRAPHQL_USE_INTROSPECTION=true npm run graphql-codegen npm run prisma-generate ``` ### Running Now, build and run the server: ```shell npm run build npm run start ``` ## Developing ### Generating GraphQL code Because the LLDAP GraphQL API is locked behind authentication, and of a quirk with `graphl-codegen` configuration files, we need to set a temporary environment variable to generate GraphQL code. If not using introspection, you will need a running LLDAP server. Run the `get-token.js` helper script and set the environment variable from its output: ```shell node get-token.js export GRAPHQL_CODEDGEN_AUTH=... ``` Then, generate the GraphQL code: ```shell npm run graphql-codegen ``` If you want to use introspection, set `GRAPHQL_USE_INTROSPECTION=true` before generating the code. You won't need to set the auth environment variable in this case. ### Working with Prisma gluestick uses [Prisma](https://www.prisma.io/) for accessing the database. If you will be modifying the database schema, you will need to work with it. Consider taking some time to familiarize yourself with the [Prisma CLI](https://www.prisma.io/docs/reference/api-reference/command-reference) first. When first cloning, generate the Prisma client: ```shell npm run prisma-generate ``` ### Running the server ```shell # Next.js hot reload # Pipe to pino-pretty for human readable logging - optional npm run dev | pino-pretty # GraphQL hot reload # Only required if working on GraphQL code npm run graphql-codegen -- -w ```
