WordPress Simple SAML is a flexible, extensible SAML integration plugin, which does most of the grunt work while keeping everything configurable through actions and filters throughout the plugin.

The plugin supports multi-site networks, and cross-network SSO delegation as well. Can be installed on site-level, or on network-level.

WordPress Simple SAML uses [OneLogin's PHP-SAML](https://github.com/onelogin/php-saml) toolkit for SAML API integration.

## Getting Set Up
## Installation


- Copy the plugin files to your `wp-content/plugins` directory
- Activate the plugin
- Head over to [configuration screen](#Configuration).
- Send Service Provider metadata URL ( or content ) to your Identity Provider authority (IdP) ( find the link in settings page ).
- Copy the plugin files to your `wp-content/plugins` directory
- Activate the plugin
- Head over to [configuration screen](#Configuration).
- Send Service Provider metadata URL (or content) to your Identity Provider authority (IdP), find the link in settings page.

**Note**: If you're activating the plugin network-wide via code, you might need to use the filter `wpsimplesaml_network_activated` to override the standard WordPress check, something like this would be what you need:

```php
add_filter( 'wpsimplesaml_network_activated', '__return_true' )
```
```

## Configuration
### Configuration

There is two ways to configure the plugin, either from the admin interface or using filters, both can be used interchangably as the project requires, usually filters prevail database settings though.

### Admin configurations
#### Option 1: Admin

Depending on whether the plugin is network-activated or not, you will need to go to `Settings \ General` or `Network Settings` pages.
Go to `Settings \ General` if single installation, or `Network Settings` if multisite.

- `SSO Status`
is how the plugin integrates with WordPress login process, available options are `Disable`, `Display login link` which only provides a link in the login form, `Force redirect` which overrides the login form altogether and directly goes to SSO login page.
- `SSO Base URL` (optional)
is the home URL of the WordPress site that serves as the delegate ( main service provider ) to which SAML responses will be posted, usually this is the main site of the network, and is the same value for `siteurl` option, eg `https://my.site/`
- `SSO IdP Metadata` (required, if not filtered)
Copy of the SSO IdP metadata XML file, which can also be passed via either `wpsimplesaml_idp_metadata_xml_path` for a path to the XML file, or `wpsimplesaml_idp_metadata_xml` for the contents of the XML, or `wpsimplesaml_idp_metadata` for the configuration array.
- `SSO delegation whitelisted hosts`
List of hosts to whitelist during delegation of SAML responses, ie: secondary domains that needs to use SSO as well from the same IdP. Local sites are allowed by default.
- `SSO Role Management`
Enables developers to assign different roles to users based on SAML Responses, disabled by default, and is controlled via a few filters,
- `SSO Debug via Cookies`
Allows developers to use a special cookie named `sso_debug` to override the `SSO Status` option during testing. Possible value of the cookie are `force` and `link`, which are self-explanatory.
- `SSO Config validation`
Shows information about IdP metadata and validity of its settings.
- `SSO Status`

- `SSO Config validation`
Shows information about IdP metadata and validity of its settings.

### Configuration via code
#### Option 1: Code

WordPress Simple SAML is built to be as extensible as possible, so most aspects of the login/validation process can be tweaked as needed by using the available well-documented [Hooks](https://github.com/humanmade/wp-simple-saml/wiki/Hooks).

## Testing
## Development

This plugin can be tested or developed within any local WordPress environment. For convenience, a local WordPress server can also be run by executing `npm run dev`: this command will start a local server at http://localhost:8888/ (requires Docker). Run `npm run wp-env stop` to shut down the server when finished.
### Testing

As SSO authorities are usually a pain to change, and credentials take time to be configured, we've documented steps to get a sample SAML IdP ( Identity provider ) up and running using a test docker container. See more at [Testing SSO Locally](https://github.com/humanmade/wp-simple-saml/wiki/Testing-SSO-locally).

TL;DR; This is the basic minimum filters you'd need to get an implementation working with the default options.

```php
// SAML metadata XML file path
add_filter( 'wpsimplesaml_idp_metadata_xml_path', function(){
return ABSPATH . '/.private/sso/test.idp.xml';
} );

// Configure attribute mapping between WordPress and SSO IdP SAML attributes
add_filter( 'wpsimplesaml_attribute_mapping', function(){
return [
'user_login' => 'uid',
'user_email' => 'email',
];
} );
```
