play-authenticate - An extensible authentication plugin for Play! Framework 2 (Java)

This plugin uses concepts from securesocial2 and Play20StartApp and provides a sample containing code from deadbolt2.

Version information

Play Authenticate currently needs Play! Framework 2.0.2 or later

Works fine with 2.0 to 2.0.4 and 2.1.0.

Attention 2.0.x developers
There is a 0.2.3-SNAPSHOT binary for Play 2.0.x and an accompanying sample application in the 2.0.x branch. This sample differs substantially from the version for 2.1 though, because the deadbolt dependency changed. So if you plan on releasing for 2.0.x don't take the 2.1 sample from the master stream and vice versa.

Live demo

You can find a live demo on heroku (might not always be the latest version) and there are some screens on our website.

Features

  • Fully customizable and localizable controllers and views (e.g. Play Authenticate allows you to define your own controllers and views for every visual step of the signup and/or log in process)
  • Completely dynamic URL generation for all views (uses the route file - means you can adapt the look and feel as much as you like).
    • The sample shows how to do this with Twitter bootstrap
  • Linking of accounts (e.g. one local user with multiple authentication providers)
    • Linking can be done automatically or after asking the user (default)
  • Merge detection (e.g. a user created two unconnected local accounts)
    • Account merge can be done automatically or after asking the user (default)
  • Tight deadbolt2 authorization integration (Sample included).
  • HTTPS support (for OAuth2 redirect links and email verification).
  • Verification email used by Email/Password provider is fully customizable and localizable and can be sent in either text or HTML or both.

Providers

As of now, the following authentication providers are supported out of the box:

  • Google (OAuth2)
  • Facebook (OAuth2)
  • Foursquare (OAuth2)
  • Twitter (OAuth1)
  • LinkedIn (OAuth1)
  • OpenID (experimental)
  • Email/Password (with email verification, password security/encryption is fully customizable)
  • Your very own authentication provider (LDAP, DB, you-name-it) via an extensible, easy-to-use plugin mechanism based on Play Plugins

The included sample application shows how to use all of those providers.
