Online demo

Casdoor

Casdoor is the authentication server. It serves both the web UI and the login requests from the application users.

• Deployed site: https://door.casbin.com/
• Source code: https://github.com/casbin/casdoor (this repo)

Global admin login:

• Username: admin
• Password: 123

Web application

Casbin-OA is one of our applications that use Casdoor as authentication.

• Deployed site: https://oa.casbin.com/
• Source code: https://github.com/casbin/casbin-oa

Architecture

Casdoor contains 2 parts:

Name	Description	Language	Source code
Frontend	Web frontend UI for Casdoor	Javascript + React	https://github.com/casbin/casdoor/tree/master/web
Backend	RESTful API backend for Casdoor	Golang + Beego + MySQL	https://github.com/casbin/casdoor

Installation

• Get code via go get:

  go get github.com/casbin/casdoor

  or git clone:

  git clone https://github.com/casbin/casdoor

Run (Dev Environment)

• Run backend (in port 8000):

  go run main.go

• Run frontend (in the same machine's port 7001):

  cd web
  ## npm
  npm install
  npm run start
  ## yarn
  yarn install
  yarn run start

• Open browser:

  http://localhost:7001/

Run (Production Environment)

• build static pages:

  cd web
  ## npm
  npm run build
  ## yarn
  yarn run build
  ## back to casdoor directory
  cd ..
  

• build and run go code:

  go build
  ./casdoor
  

Now, Casdoor is running on port 8000. You can access Casdoor pages directly in your browser, or you can setup a reverse proxy to hold your domain name, SSL, etc.

Config

• Setup database (MySQL):

  Casdoor will store its users, nodes and topics informations in a MySQL database named: casdoor, will create it if not existed. The DB connection string can be specified at: https://github.com/casbin/casdoor/blob/master/conf/app.conf

  db = mysql
  dataSourceName = root:123@tcp(localhost:3306)/
  dbName = casdoor

• Setup database (Postgres):

  Since we must choose a database when opening Postgres with xorm, you should prepare a database manually before running Casdoor. Let's assume that you have already prepared a database called casdoor, then you should specify app.conf like this:

  db = postgres
  dataSourceName = "user=postgres password=xxx sslmode=disable dbname="
  dbName = casdoor

  Please notice: You can add Postgres parameters in dataSourceName, but please make sure that dataSourceName ends with dbname=. Or database adapter may crash when you launch Casdoor.

  Casdoor uses XORM to connect to DB, so all DBs supported by XORM can also be used.

• Github corner

  We added a Github icon in the upper right corner, linking to your Github repository address. You could set ShowGithubCorner to hidden it.

  Configuration (web/src/commo/Conf.js):

  export const ShowGithubCorner = true
  
  export const GithubRepo = "https://github.com/casbin/casdoor" //your github repository

• OSS conf

  We use an OSS to store and provide user avatars. You must modify the file conf/oss.conf to tell the backend your OSS info. For OSS providers, we support Aliyun([aliyun]), awss3([s3]) now.

  [provider]
  accessId = id
  accessKey = key
  bucket = bucket
  endpoint = endpoint
  

  Please fill out this conf correctly, or the avatar server won't work!
