Have simpleid also provide the identifier

  • 772

I have a running simpleid installation, and I use my own homepage as the identifier. Now I want to add a user to simpleid who does not have a homepage or similar.

Does simpleid provide an identifier for its users automatically somehow?

E.g. after configuring /var/lib/simpleid/foo.identity I’d like to be able to use http://example.com/simpleid/foo (or similar) as the identity for the user.

openid

  1. A little later I found the answer in the documentation: simpleid provides a YADIS file. So with

    $ cat /var/lib/simpleid/identities/foo.identity 
identity="https://example.com/simpleid/xrds/foo"
pass="deadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef"

    I can use https://example.com/simpleid/xrds/foo as an OpenID without further setup.
