Appendix B. Generating Keycloak host names automatically


OpenShift routes has support for automatically generating host names by using a set pattern. This feature can integrate with Red Hat’s build of Keycloak (RHBK) operator running on OpenShift.

Prerequisites

  • Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform version 4.13 or later.
  • Installation of the RHBK operator.
  • Access to the OpenShift web console with the cluster-admin role.
  • A workstation with the oc binary installed.

Procedure

  1. Enable the automatically generated route hostname feature.

    1. Under the .spec section, remove the entire hostname section, and replace it with the ingress section and className property within the Keycloak resource:

      Example

      spec:
      ...
        hostname:
          hostname: example.com
      ...

      Example

      spec:
      ...
        ingress:
          className: openshift-default
      ...

      Note

      To view all of the available Ingress classes, run the following command:

      $ oc get ingressclass
    2. Click the Save button.
  2. Verify the automatically generated hostname by clicking the Reload button to view the latest configuration:

    Example

    spec:
    ...
      hostname:
        hostname: example-keycloak-ingress-keycloak-system.apps.rhtas.example.com
    ...
