docs/Docker & Kubernetes/Docker/Docker Compose/Authentik.md

Purpose: Authentik is an open-source Identity Provider, focused on flexibility and versatility. With authentik, site administrators, application developers, and security engineers have a dependable and secure solution for authentication in almost any type of environment. There are robust recovery actions available for the users and applications, including user profile and password management. You can quickly edit, deactivate, or even impersonate a user profile, and set a new password for new users or reset an existing password.

This document is based on the Official Docker-Compose Documentation. It is meant for testing / small-scale production deployments.

!!! note "Generating Passwords" Navigate to the online PWGen Password Generator to generate the passwords for PG_PASS (40 characters) and AUTHENTIK_SECRET_KEY (50 characters).

Because of a PostgreSQL limitation, only passwords up to 99 characters are supported

Traefik Reverse Proxy Configuration

If the container does not run on the same host as Traefik, you will need to manually add configuration to Traefik's dynamic config file, outlined below.

http:
  routers:
    PLACEHOLDER:
      entryPoints:
        - websecure
      tls:
        certResolver: myresolver
      service: PLACEHOLDER
      rule: Host(`PLACEHOLDER.bunny-lab.io`)

  services:
    PLACEHOLDER:
      loadBalancer:
        servers:
          - url: http://PLACEHOLDER:80
        passHostHeader: true
