SvelteKit Zitadel OIDC Integration

This project demonstrates how to integrate OIDC (OpenID Connect) authentication using Zitadel with a SvelteKit application. The integration leverages the oidc-client-ts library to handle authentication flows and manage user sessions.

Installation

To get started, clone the repository and install the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/sveltekit-zitadel-oidc.git
cd sveltekit-zitadel-oidc
npm install

Configuration

Create a .env file in the root of your project and add the following environment variables:

Variable Default Value Description
PUBLIC_GUI_URL http://localhost:5173 The base URL of the GUI application. Svelte dev port by default.
PUBLIC_OIDC_URL http://id.loc The URL of the OIDC provider.
PUBLIC_OIDC_CLIENT_ID The client ID for the OIDC application.
PUBLIC_OIDC_LOGIN_URL http://localhost:5173/ The URL to redirect to after a successful login. Svelte might require trailing slash.
PUBLIC_OIDC_LOGOUT_URL http://localhost:5173/ The URL to redirect to after a successful logout. Svelte might require trailing slash.

These variables configure the OIDC client with the necessary URLs and client ID.

Usage

Authorization

The authorize function initializes the OIDC UserManager and loads the user from storage:

import { authorize } from './lib/auth/oidc/client.js';

authorize().then(user => {
  if (user) {
    console.log('User is authenticated:', user);
  } else {
    console.log('User is not authenticated');
  }
});

Login and Logout

To initiate the login and logout processes, use the login and logout functions:

import { login, logout } from './lib/auth/oidc/client.js';

// To login
login();

// To logout
logout();

Handling Callbacks

Use the AuthCallback component to handle login and silent refresh callbacks:

<script lang="ts">
  import AuthCallback from '$lib/auth/oidc/AuthCallback.svelte';
</script>

<AuthCallback action="login" />

Svelte Stores

The authentication state is managed using Svelte stores:

import { isAuthenticated, user } from './lib/auth/oidc/store.js';

$isAuthenticated; // boolean indicating if the user is authenticated
$user; // the authenticated user object or null
