#52455: Buildbot: use GitHub authentication ----------------------------+--------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: admin@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: Component: server/hosting | Version: Keywords: | Port: ----------------------------+--------------------- Our Buildbot installation should allow developers to log in with their GitHub account, rather than maintaining a separate username and password. Buildbot 0.8 has no built-in support for this. Buildbot 0.9 does but I don't want to upgrade to 0.9 at this time. Buildbot 0.8 can be configured to trust the user information provided to it by a reverse proxy: http://docs.buildbot.net/0.8.14/manual/cfg-statustargets.html#http-based- authentication-by-frontend-server The MacPorts Buildbot currently runs WebStatus behind a simple nginx reverse proxy. It was suggested on the Buildbot mailing list that we should try to use this: https://github.com/bitly/oauth2_proxy We would need to add a MacPorts port for it. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52455> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
