spid-go

Golang package for SPID authentication

This Go package is aimed at implementing SPID Service Providers. SPID is the Italian digital identity system, which enables citizens to access all public services with single set of credentials. This module provides a layer of abstraction over the SAML protocol by exposing just the subset required in order to implement SPID authentication in a web application.

Getting Started

The example/ directory contains a demo web application. Just follow these steps in order to test it quickly:

1. Install the go-xmlsec dependency. While go get should get everything else you need, go-xmlsec depends on a C library so you should install it manually. It's quick. See its README for details. (You might need to run export CGO_CFLAGS_ALLOW=".*" first to make it compile correctly.)

2. Run the demo application:

   cd example/
   go run service.go

3. Connect to http://localhost:8000/metadata and grab the metadata of the demo Service Provider.

4. Configure spid-testenv2 and load the above Service Provider metadata into it.

5. Launch http://localhost:8000 and enjoy your SPID demo.
