What is Writefreely
An open source platform for building a writing space on the web.
:::caution Currently it is not possible to connect writefreely to authentik without making an adjustment in the database. See here and Writefreely Setup :::
Preparation
The following placeholders will be used:
writefreely.company
is the FQDN of the writefreely install.authentik.company
is the FQDN of the authentik install.
authentik Configuration
Step 1 - OAuth2/OpenID Provider
Create a OAuth2/OpenID Provider (under Applications/Providers) with these settings:
- Name: writefreely
- Redirect URI:
https://writefreely.company/oauth/callback/generic
Step 3 - Application
Create an application (under Resources/Applications) with these settings:
- Name: Writefreely
- Slug: writefreely
- Provider: writefreely
Writefreely Setup
Database
Currently the column access_token
is configured too small, so it needs to be adjusted
ALTER TABLE `oauth_users` MODIFY `access_token` varchar(2048);
Configuration
Configure Writefreely settings by editing the config.ini
and add the following:
So that new users can be created the following variable must be set to true
open_registration = false
To disable the local login/registration use the following setting (this is useful because writefreely attracts a lot of spam)
disable_password_auth = false
The following settings must be made for oauth
[oauth.generic]
client_id = <Client ID>
client_secret = <Client Secret>
host = https://authentik.company
display_name = authentik
callback_proxy =
callback_proxy_api =
token_endpoint = /application/o/token/
inspect_endpoint = /application/o/userinfo/
auth_endpoint = /application/o/authorize/
scope = openid profile email
allow_disconnect = false
map_user_id = sub
map_username = nickname
map_display_name = name
map_email = email
Restart writefreely.service
Account linking
If your usernames in authentik and WriteFreely are different, you might need to link your accounts before being able to use SSO.
To link the accounts, first log into Writefreely with local credentials, and then navigate to Customize -->Account Settings. In the option "Linked Accounts", click on "authentik".
