Authelia client uses hash router instead of browser router in order to work
with Kubernetes nginx-ingress-controller. This is also better for users having
old browsers.
This commit is breaking because it requires to change the configuration of the
proxy to include the # in the URL of the login portal.
In order to redirect the user after authentication, Authelia uses
rd query parameter provided by the proxy. However an attacker could
use phishing to make the user be redirected to a bad domain. In order
to avoid the user to be redirected to a bad location, Authelia now
verifies the redirection URL is under the protected domain.
In order to simplify the deployment of Authelia for
testing, LDAP is now optional made optional thanks
to users database stored in a file. One can update
the file manually even while Authelia is running.
With this feature the minimal configuration requires
only two components: Authelia and nginx.
The users database is obviously made for development
environments only as it prevents Authelia to be scaled
to more than one instance.
Note: Configuration has been updated. Key `ldap` has
been nested in `authentication_backend`.
Before this patch, when Authelia started, if Mongo was not
up and running, Authelia failed to connect and never retried.
Now, everytime Authelia faces a broken connection, it tries
to reconnect during the next operation.
