This URL is used when user access the authentication domain without providing
the 'redirect' query parameter. In that case, Authelia does not know
where to redirect the user.
If the parameter is defined, Authelia can redirect the user to a default page
when no redirect parameter is provided.
When user is already authenticated and tries to access the authentication
domain, the "already logged in" page is rendered and it now tells the user he
is to be redirected in few seconds and uses this URL to redirect.
This parameter is optional. If it is not provided, there is only a notification
message at the end of the authentication process, as before, and the user is
not redirected when visiting the authentication domain while already
authenticated.
This timeout will prevent an attacker from using a session that has been
inactive for too long.
This inactivity timeout combined with the timeout before expiration makes a
good combination of security mechanisms to prevent session theft.
If no activity timeout is provided, then the feature is disabled and only
session expiration remains as a protection.
This refactoring aims to ease testability and clean up a lot of soft touchy
typings in test code.
This is the first step of this refactoring introducing the concept and
implementing missing interfaces and stubs. At the end of the day,
ServerVariablesHandler should completely disappear and every variable should
be injected in the endpoint handler builder itself.
One can now customize the default authentication method for all sub-domains,
i.e., either 'two_factor' or 'basic_auth' and define specific authentication
method per sub-domain.
For example, one can specify that every sub-domain must be authenticated with
two factor except one sub-domain that must be authenticated with basic auth.
Previously, logs were not very friendly and it was hard to track
a request because of the lack of request ID.
Now every log message comes with a header containing: method, path
request ID, session ID, IP of the user, date.
Moreover, the configurations displayed in the logs have their secrets
hidden from this commit.
Client and server now have their own tsconfig so that the transpilation is only
done on the part that is being modified.
It also allows faster transpilation since tests are now excluded from tsconfig.
They are compiled by ts-node during unit tests execution.
