UAA release

See docs taken from bosh-micro-cli circa mid-2015.

Configuring required properties for UAA start-up

The properties below need to be generated explicitly per deployment of UAA release and are required for proper start-up and functioning of UAA. These are standard artifacts which can be generated using openssl. Please refer the topic below on how to generate a self signed cert.

SAML Service Provider Configuration

login.saml.serviceProviderCertificate:
description: "UAA SAML Service provider certificate. This is used for signing outgoing SAML Authentication Requests"

login.saml.serviceProviderKey:
description: "Private key for the service provider certificate."

JWT Signing Keys(verification key needn't be set as we derive it from the private key)

uaa.jwt.policy.keys:
 description: "Map of key IDs and signing keys, each defined with a property `signingKey`"
    example:
      key-1:
        signingKey
 
 uaa.jwt.policy.active_key_id:
 description: "The ID of the JWT signing key to be used when signing tokens."
 example: "key-1"

Configuring UAA to run on https with SSL

By default UAA is configured to use SSL with a self-signed certificate and will be started on port 8443.

Using your own certificate

Add the following properties to your manifest:

uaa.sslCertificate: Specifies your SSL certificate
uaa.sslPrivateKey: Specifies your private key. The key must be a passphrase-less key.

Generating a self-signed certificate

Generate your private key with any passphrase

openssl genrsa -aes256 -out server.key 1024

Remove passphrase from key

openssl rsa -in server.key -out server.key

Generate certificate signing request for CA

openssl req -x509 -sha256 -new -key server.key -out server.csr

Generate self-signed certificate with 365 days expiry-time

openssl x509 -sha256 -days 365 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out selfsigned.crt

Contributing to uaa-release

General workflow

Fork the repository and make a local clone

Create a feature branch from the development branch

cd uaa-release
git checkout develop
git submodule update
git checkout -b my_branch

Make changes on your branch
Deploy your version of uaa-release to test the changes
Push to your fork (git push origin my_branch) and submit a pull request selecting develop as the target branch

Deploying to a bosh-lite environment

We have provided a sample manifest for a bosh-lite uaa-release deployment. Make sure you modify the director uuid in the manifest to match yours

   bosh upload-stemcell https://bosh.io/d/stemcells/bosh-warden-boshlite-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent --skip-if-exists
   bosh create-release
   bosh upload-release
   bosh -n -e vbox -d uaa  deploy \
     templates/uaa-deployment.yml \
     --vars-store creds.yml \
     -v system_domain=uaa-standalone.com

After that you can get the IP address and add the hostname to your /etc/hosts file

You may want to setup an entry in your /etc/hosts

   10.244.0.118    uaa.uaa-standalone.com

And you access it using

   https://uaa.uaa-standalone.com:8443/
