OmniAuth-OWA

 About

This is an OmiAuth strategy for authenticating against an Outlook Web Access server. Might be handy if you want to allow people to authenticate against your company's LDAP credentials but the only way they're exposed on the Internet is through webmail login.

Currently barely more than a proof of concept, only tested against one specific OWA server, and certainly not production quality!

Installation

gem install omniauth-owa

Or if you're using bundler, put it in your gemfile:

gem "omniauth-owa"

Usage

Rails example:

Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
  provider :owa, base_url: "https://mail.example.com", form: SessionsController.action(:new)
end

If you override the form (as in the example above), it should post to /auth/owa/callback with uid and password parameters.

The parameters returned in the authentication hash are:

  • uid
  • info.name
  • info.first_name
  • info.last_name
  • info.email
