# MediaCMS: Document Changes for DEIC
## Configuration Changes
The following changes are required in `deploy/docker/local_settings.py`:
```python
# default workflow
PORTAL_WORKFLOW = 'private'
# Authentication Settings
# these two are necessary so that users cannot register through system accounts. They can only register through identity providers
REGISTER_ALLOWED = False
USERS_CAN_SELF_REGISTER = False
USE_RBAC = True
USE_SAML = True
USE_IDENTITY_PROVIDERS = True
# Proxy and SSL Settings
USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST = True
SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER = ('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO', 'https')
SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT = True
CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = True
SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True
# SAML Configuration
SOCIALACCOUNT_ADAPTER = 'saml_auth.adapter.SAMLAccountAdapter'
ACCOUNT_USERNAME_VALIDATORS = "users.validators.less_restrictive_username_validators"
SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS = {
"saml": {
"provider_class": "saml_auth.custom.provider.CustomSAMLProvider",
}
}
SOCIALACCOUNT_AUTO_SIGNUP = True
SOCIALACCOUNT_EMAIL_REQUIRED = False
# if set to strict, user is created with the email from the saml provider without
# checking if the email is already on the system
# however if this is ommited, and user tries to login with an email that already exists on
# the system, then they get to the ugly form where it suggests they add a username/email/name
ACCOUNT_PREVENT_ENUMERATION = 'strict'
```
## SAML Configuration Steps
### Step 1: Add SAML Identity Provider
1. Navigate to Admin panel
2. Select "Identity Provider"
3. Configure as follows:
- **Provider**: saml # ensure this is set with lower case!
- **Provider ID**: `wayf.wayf.dk`
- **IDP Config Name**: `Deic` (or preferred name)
- **Client ID**: `wayf_dk` (important: defines the URL, e.g., `https://deic.mediacms.io/accounts/saml/wayf_dk`)
- **Site**: Set the default one
### Step 2: Add SAML Configuration
Can be set through the SAML Configurations tab:
1. **IDP ID**: Must be a URL, e.g., `https://wayf.wayf.dk`
2. **IDP Certificate**: x509cert from your SAML provider
3. **SSO URL**: `https://wayf.wayf.dk/saml2/idp/SSOService2.php`
4. **SLO URL**: `https://wayf.wayf.dk/saml2/idp/SingleLogoutService.php`
5. **SP Metadata URL**: The metadata URL set for the SP, e.g., `https://deic.mediacms.io/saml/metadata`. This should point to the URL of the SP and is autogenerated
### Step 3: Set the other Options
1. **Email Settings**:
- `verified_email`: When enabled, emails from SAML responses will be marked as verified
- `Remove from groups`: When enabled, user is removed from a group after login, if they have been removed from the group on the IDP
2. **Global Role Mapping**: Maps the role returned by SAML (as set in the SAML Configuration tab) with the role in MediaCMS
3. **Group Role Mapping**: Maps the role returned by SAML (as set in the SAML Configuration tab) with the role in groups that user will be added
4. **Group mapping**: This creates groups associated with this IDP. Group ids as they come from SAML, associated with MediaCMS groups
5. **Category Mapping**: This maps a group id (from SAML response) with a category in MediaCMS
