🚀 Getting Started

📋 Prerequisites

  • 🖥️ A running Keycloak instance
  • 🔑 Client credentials and realm configuration

🔧 Basic Setup

  1. Add the Keycloak client to your services in Program.cs or Startup.cs:
services.AddKeycloakAuthentication(options =>
{
    options.KeycloakBaseUrl = "http://localhost:8080";
    options.RealmAdminCredentials = new KcClientCredentials
    {
        ClientId = "your-client-id",
        ClientSecret = "your-client-secret"
    };
});

📖 Basic Usage

Here's a quick example of how to use the library:

// Create Keycloak client
var keycloakClient = new KeycloakClient("http://localhost:8080");

// Authenticate
var token = await keycloakClient.Auth.GetClientCredentialsTokenAsync(
    "your-realm",
    new KcClientCredentials
    {
        ClientId = "your-client-id",
        ClientSecret = "your-client-secret"
    });

// Use the token for other operations
var users = await keycloakClient.Users.GetAsync(
    "your-realm",
    token.AccessToken,
    new KcUserFilter { Max = 10 });
