Configure GitHub OAuth

Configure GitHub and Spinnaker to use GitHub as an OAuth2 authenticator.

Prerequisites

  • Ability to modify developer settings for your GitHub organization

  • Access to Halyard

  • A Spinnaker deployment with DNS and SSL configured

Configure GitHub OAuth in GitHub

  1. Login to GitHub and go to Settings > Developer Settings > OAuth Apps > New OAuth App

  2. Make note of the Client ID / Client Secret

  3. Homepage URL: This would be the URL of your Spinnaker service e.g. https://spinnaker.acme.com

  4. Authorization callback URL: This is going to match your --pre-established-redirect-uri in halyard and the URL needs login appended to your gate endpoint. Example https://gate.spinnaker.acme.com/login or https://spinnaker.acme.com/gate/login

Configure GitHub OAuth in Spinnaker

Add the following snippet to your SpinnakerService manifest under the spec.spinnakerConfig.config.security.authn level:

oauth2:
    enabled: true
    client:
      clientId: a08xxxxxxxxxxxxx93
      clientSecret: 6xxxaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx59   # Secret Enabled Field
      scope: read:org,user:email
      preEstablishedRedirectUri: https://gate.spinnaker.acme.com/login
    provider: GITHUB
