Registering users in Git Proxy Application.Seeking correct process ?

[hemantsharma90]

Hello Team,
We wanted to understand the user management aspects(CRUD Operations of Users) in the Git-Proxy Application
viz.
Registering/Managing Admin Role Users,
Registering /Managing Contributor Role Users,
Registering /Managing Reviewer Role Users.

Didn’t found any documented process to do User Registration(maintaining passwords etc) in the gitproxy documentation.

https://git-proxy.finos.org/docs/.

From the source code of the application , got a fair bit of understanding that we could actually add users by updating [filename: './.data/db/users.db'] , though we reckon there is a much cleaner approach to do the same (which I might be missing while deciphering the source code 😊 ).P.S - I'm not an expert in NodeJS constructs.

Though we can add an approved github/gitlab repository from the ADMIN UI of Git Proxy, and actually can associate registered users as Reviewers/ Contributors for the respective repositories.

However to register a user in the first place is something we want to understand.

Hemant Sharma

As mentioned in #868:

GitProxy currently supports adding new users through ActiveDirectory or OIDC login, but no "direct" user creation through email/password. If you'd like to add new users through OIDC, you can follow the setup guide here: #906
