Introduction

Recently, it seems Keycloak is being used quite frequently. (According to my colleague)

I hadn't tried it yet myself, so I decided to give it a simple try to see what it's all about.

Getting Started with Keycloak

1. Pull the Docker image and start Keycloak

docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 \ -e KEYCLOAK_ADMIN = admin \ -e KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD = admin \ quay.io/keycloak/keycloak:24.0.3 \ start-dev

Enter fullscreen mode

Exit fullscreen mode

2. Access the admin console

Once Keycloak is running, access the admin console at the following URL:

http://localhost:8080

Enter fullscreen mode

Exit fullscreen mode

You'll see the Keycloak login page.

3. Log in to the admin console

Enter the username (admin) and password (admin) to log in to the admin console. The login was successful!

4. Create a test user

Navigate to the left menu and go to Users → Add user to create a new user. In this example, I created a user named "test".
