This tool will only run natively on Linux and Mac OS.

Windows users will have to use it via WSL. More info here.

This tool will be maintained to stay compatible with every Keycloak version starting from Keycloak Version 11.

However, the default pages you will get (before you customize them) will always be the ones of Keycloak v11.0.3 and some extra pages that didn't existed back then like register-user-profile.ftl.

Supported Keycloak version

See versions Keycloakify have been tested with

Latest release isn't in the list yet? It probably works fine, we just can't confirm it yet.

Supported React frameworks

If you aren't trying to integrate the theme with a preexisting react app, save yourself some time and just use create-react-app.

This tool assumes you are bundling your app with Webpack.

It assumes there is a build/ directory at the root of your react project directory, it's usually generated after running yarn build.

The build/ directory is expected to contain an index.html file and a build/static/ directory.

Keycloakify also assumes there is a public/ directory at the root of your react project that is used to make static files available.

Concretely Keycloakify assumes that if there is a public/a/b.c/foo.txt file. This file should be available at https://localhost:<some_port>/a/b/c.foo.txt when running your app in test mode (usually by firing yarn start).

For more detailed information see this issue.

My framework doesn’t seem to be supported, what can I do?

Currently Keycloakify is only compatible with SPA React apps. It doesn’t mean that you can't use Keycloakify if you are using Next.js, Express or any other framework that involves a server but your Keycloak theme will need to be a standalone project. Find specific instructions about how to get started here.

To share your styles between your main app and your login pages you will need to externalize your design system by making it a separate module. Checkout ts_ci, it can help with that (example with our design system).

Utility that needs to be installed

  • mvn (Maven), rm, mkdir, curl, unzip.

  • docker must be up and running when running start_keycloak_testing_container.sh
