Description

Description

Support OAuth 2.0, maybe initially with "generic" and "github" options, for the UI.

Motivation

In a team, having everyone log in with the same credentials isn't best practice. As well, there is no way to use 2FA with the UI login presently: Supporting OAuth 2.0 would bring in the 2FA that Github et al offer.

Additional Information

OAuth 2.0 Go module: https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/oauth2

Example of using Github auth in Grafana: https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/auth/github/

Research direction

No project files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the Go OAuth 2.0 module and the linked Grafana GitHub-auth example, then locate the UI login flow; done means the UI supports generic and GitHub OAuth providers with the stated team-login and 2FA goals.
