fake_sso

Setup

To enable the fake SSO method locally, use the following steps:

1. Add the following line to /etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 host.docker.internal

2. In the main repo, enable the fake_sso feature flag:

make feature-toggle feature=fake_sso enabled=true

3. In this repo, install the dependencies:

npm i

4. In this repo, create a file called back-secret.env in the env_files folder, and make sure it has the correct FAKE_SSO_JWT_SECRET. It should match the one in env_files/back-secret.env in the main repo.

5. In both repos, run the docker compose file:

docker compose up

Issues

NOTE: If you have BASE_DEV_URI set for use with localtunnel in back-secrets.env, this can conflict with this implementation. Best to disable.
