Photo Gallery with React, Spring Boot, and JHipster

This example app shows how to build a Photo Gallery with Spring Boot, React, and JHipster.

Please read Build a Photo Gallery PWA with React, Spring Boot, and JHipster to see how this app was created. You can also watch a screencast on YouTube.

Prerequisites: Java 8, Node.js, and Yarn.

Okta has Authentication and User Management APIs that reduce development time with instant-on, scalable user infrastructure. Okta's intuitive API and expert support make it easy for developers to authenticate, manage, and secure users and roles in any application.

Getting Started

To install this example application, run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/oktadeveloper/okta-react-photo-gallery-example.git photo-gallery
cd photo-gallery

This will get a copy of the project installed locally. To install all of its dependencies and start the app, run the commands below.

yarn
yarn webpack:build
./mvnw

To log in to your app, you'll need to have Keycloak up and running. JHipster ships with a Docker container that has the default users and roles. Start Keycloak using the following command.

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/keycloak.yml up

The security settings in src/main/resources/config/application.yml are configured for this image.

security:
    basic:
        enabled: false
    oauth2:
        client:
            accessTokenUri: http://localhost:9080/auth/realms/jhipster/protocol/openid-connect/token
            userAuthorizationUri: http://localhost:9080/auth/realms/jhipster/protocol/openid-connect/auth
            clientId: web_app
            clientSecret: web_app
            scope: openid profile email
        resource:
            userInfoUri: http://localhost:9080/auth/realms/jhipster/protocol/openid-connect/userinfo

Setup Okta

To use Okta, you'll need to change a few things. First, you'll need to create a free developer account at https://developer.okta.com/signup/. After doing so, you'll get your own Okta domain, that has a name like https://dev-123456.oktapreview.com.

Modify src/main/resources/application.yml to use your Okta settings.

security:
    basic:
        enabled: false
    oauth2:
        client:
            accessTokenUri: https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default/v1/token
            userAuthorizationUri: https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default/v1/authorize
            clientId: {clientId}
            clientSecret: {clientSecret}
            scope: openid profile email
        resource:
            userInfoUri: https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default/v1/userinfo

Create an OIDC App in Okta to get a {clientId} and {clientSecret}. To do this, log in to your Okta Developer account and navigate to Applications > Add Application. Click Web and click the Next button. Give the app a name you’ll remember, specify http://localhost:8080 as a Base URI, and http://localhost:8080/login as a Login Redirect URI. Click Done and copy the client ID and secret into your application.yml file.

Create a ROLE_ADMIN and ROLE_USER group and add users into them. Create a user (e.g., "admin@jhipster.org" with password "Java is hip in 2018!"). Modify e2e tests to use this account when running integration tests. You'll need to change credentials in src/test/javascript/e2e/account/account.spec.ts and src/test/javascript/e2e/admin/administration.spec.ts.

Navigate to API > Authorization Servers, click the Authorization Servers tab and edit the default one. Click the Claims tab and Add Claim. Name it "roles", and include it in the ID Token. Set the value type to "Groups" and set the filter to be a Regex of .*.

After making these changes, you should be good to go!
