CL-OpenID
Cl-OpenID is an implementation of OpenID protocol in Common Lisp. It implements OpenID Authentication 2.0 standard and is compatible with OpenID Authentication 1.1. Both Relying Party (formerly called OpenID Consumer), and OpenID Provider are implemented.
CL-OpenID is available on terms of GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 with Franz Inc.'s preamble, also known as LLGPL (Lisp Lesser General Public License).
The project is developed as a Google Summer of Code 2008 project, developed by Maciej Pasternacki and mentored by Anton Vodonosov. Original application is published at http://trac.common-lisp.net/cl-openid/wiki/OriginalProposal.

2 Downloading
Project Web page is http://common-lisp.net/project/cl-openid/. Most recent version of the code can be downloaded with darcs:
darcs get http://common-lisp.net/project/cl-openid/
2.1 Dependencies
Project depends on following libraries:
- drakma,
- ironclad,
- xmls,
- split-sequence,
- cl-base64,
- trivial-utf-8,
- bordeaux-threads
- puri,
- cl-html-parse (on implementations other than Allegro CL).
Example code depends also on Hunchentoot. Unit tests depend on FiveAM testing framework.
All required libraries should be ASDF-installable, so running darcs dist
and then calling ASDF-INSTALL:INSTALL
on resulting tarball
should provide complete dependencies.
2.1.1 CL-Librarian shelf
As an alternative to ASDF-Install, a CL-Librarian shelf definition for dependencies is provided. To use it, run following shell commands in CL-OpenID directory:
darcs get http://www.pasternacki.net/repos/cl-librarian/ lib cd lib sh bootstrap.sh cd ..
Then start your favourite Lisp implementation and call:
(load "shelf") (cl-librarian:download-shelf 'cl-openid.deps) ; for the first time or when new dependency is added (cl-librarian:use-shelf 'cl-openid.deps) ; when libraries are already downloaded (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :cl-openid) (asdf:oos 'asdf:test-op :cl-openid) ; run 5am unit tests
2.2 Example code
Example implementation of Relying Party and OpenID Provider for
Hunchentoot web server is included in examples/
subdirectory. For
convenience, both examples can be loaded as CL-OPENID.EXAMPLES
ASDF system:
(asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :cl-openid.examples)
3 Provided API
3.1 Relying Party
3.1.1 Class RELYING-PARTY
Relying Party class.
3.1.1.1 Accessor ROOT-URI
relying-party ⇒ uri
Root URI address of the Relying Party instance.
Used to generate return_to redirections.
3.1.1.2 Accessor REALM
relying-party ⇒ uri
Relying Party realm.
3.1.2 Constant +AUTHPROC-HANDLE-PARAMETER+
Name of HTTP GET parameter, sent in return_to URI, which contains AUTH-PROCESS object unique handle.
3.1.3 Function INITIATE-AUTHENTICATION
relying-party given-id &key immediate-p extra-parameters ⇒ uri
Initiate authentication process by relying-party for identifier given-id received from user.
If immediate-p is true, initiates immediate authentication process.
The extra-parameters is an optional key-value list to be added to the authentication request message.
The list format is the same as for the MAKE-MESSAGE
function. This parameter is needed for OpenID
extensions, for example OAuth or Attribute Exchange.
Returns multiple values:
- the URI to redirect the user's browser to;
- Unique handle (string) identifying the started authentication process;
- the AUTH-PROCESS structure identified by the handle.
The latter two values are useful if the client code needs to track the process.
3.1.4 Function HANDLE-INDIRECT-RESPONSE
relying-party message request-uri &optional auth-process ⇒ authendicated-id auth-process
Handle indirect response message for relying-party, coming at request-uri, concerning authproc.
authproc can be a literal AUTH-PROCESS object, or a string
(unique authproc handle, sent earlier by Relying Party). When
authproc is NIL or not supplied, its handle is taken from
message field named +AUTHPROC-HANDLE-PARAMETER+
.
Returns claimed ID URI on success, NIL on failure. As second value, always returns AUTH-PROCESS object.
3.1.5 Condition OPENID-ASSERTION-ERROR
Error signaled by Relying Party when indirect response cannot be verified correctly.
3.1.5.1 Accessor CODE
openid-assertion-error ⇒ keyword
Keyword code of error.
Possible values are
-
:SERVER-ERROR
(received response is an erroor message), -
:SETUP-NEEDED
(negative response to immediate request), -
:INVALID-RETURN-TO
(request doesn't match previously sent openid.return_to), -
:INVALID-NAMESPACE
(invalid openid.ns in received message), -
:INVALID-ENDPOINT
(endpoint specified in assertion does not match previously discovered information), -
:INVALID-CLAIMED-ID
(received claimed_id differs from specified previously, discovery for received claimed ID returns other endpoint), -
:INVALID-NONCE
(repeated openid.nonce), -
:INVALID-SIGNATURE
(signature verification failed), -
:INVALID-SIGNED-FIELDS
(not all fields that need to be signed, were signed).
3.1.5.2 Accessor REASON
openid-assertion-error ⇒ string
Textual description of error.
3.1.5.3 Accessor AUTHPROC
openid-assertion-error ⇒ auth-process
The AUTH-PROCESS
structure that was being verified.
3.1.5.4 Accessor MESSAGE
openid-assertion-error ⇒ message
Received message (an association list).
3.1.6 Structure AUTH-PROCESS
Data structure gathering information about an ongoing authentication process.
3.1.6.1 Function AUTH-PROCESS-P
object ⇒ boolean
Returns true if object is an AUTH-PROCESS
structure.
3.1.6.2 Accessor PROTOCOL-VERSION-MAJOR
auth-process ⇒ integer
Protocol version major number of auth-process.
3.1.6.3 Accessor PROTOCOL-VERSION-MINOR
auth-process ⇒ integer
Protocol version minor number of auth-process.
3.1.6.4 Accessor PROTOCOL-VERSION
auth-process ⇒ cons
Protocol version of an authentication process, as a cons (MAJOR . MINOR)
.
3.1.6.5 Accessor CLAIMED-ID
auth-process ⇒ uri
Claimed ID of an auth proces.
3.1.6.6 Accessor OP-LOCAL-ID
auth-process ⇒ uri
OP-local id of an auth process.
3.1.6.7 Accessor PROVIDER-ENDPOINT-URI
auth-process ⇒ uri
Discovered endpoint URI.
3.1.6.8 Accessor RETURN-TO
auth-process ⇒ uri
Authentication process' return_to address.
It is Relying Party's root URI with added HTTP GET parameter
named +AUTHPROC-HANDLE-PARAMETER+
whose value is authproc's
unique handle.
3.1.6.9 Accessor TIMESTAMP
auth-process ⇒ universal-time
Universal time of authentication process structure's creation.
3.1.6.10 Accessor XRDS-LOCATION
auth-process ⇒ uri
Address of XRDS file used in auth-process discovery.
3.2 OpenID Provider
3.2.1 Class OPENID-PROVIDER
OpenID Provider server abstract class.
This class should be subclassed, and specialized methods should be
provided at least for HANDLE-CHECKID-SETUP
(preferably also for
HANDLE-CHECKID-IMMEDIATE
).
3.2.1.1 Accessor ENDPOINT-URI
op ⇒ uri
OpenID Provider instance's endpoint URI
3.2.2 Constant +INDIRECT-RESPONSE-CODE+
HTTP code used for indirect response redirections.
3.2.3 Function HANDLE-OPENID-PROVIDER-REQUEST
op message &key secure-p ⇒ response values
Handle request message for OpenID Provider instance op.
secure-p should be passed by caller to indicate whether it is secure to use unencrypted association method.
Returns two values: first is body, and second is HTTP code. If second value is not returned, 200 OK HTTP code should be assumed.
On HTTP redirections (second value between 300 and 399 inclusive,
actually it will be +INDIRECT-RESPONSE-CODE+
), primary returned
value will be an URI to redirect user to.
The same rules apply to all *-RESPONSE
functions and
WITH-INDIRECT-ERROR-HANDLER
form return values.
3.2.4 Function CANCEL-RESPONSE
op message ⇒ response values
Send cancel (authenticaction failure) response to MESSAGE from OP.
3.2.5 Function SUCCESSFUL-RESPONSE
op message ⇒ response values
Return successful response to message by op.
3.2.6 Macro WITH-INDIRECT-ERROR-HANDLER
&body body ⇒ response values
Handle INDIRECT-ERROR
in body.
When INDIRECT-ERROR
condition is signaled, immediately return
indirect error response.
3.2.7 Function SIGNAL-INDIRECT-ERROR
message reason &rest reason-args
Signal INDIRECT-ERROR
condition as reply to message,
effectively returning indirect error reply from
WITH-INDIRECT-ERROR-HANDLER
block.
Reason is textual error message format string, with reason-args being its arguments.
3.2.8 Generic HANDLE-CHECKID-IMMEDIATE
op message ⇒ generalized-boolean
Handle checkid_immediate requests.
This generic should be specialized on concrete Provider classes to perform immediate login checks on MESSAGE. It should return at once, either true value (to indicate successful login), or NIL (to indicate immediate login failure).
Default method always fails.
This generic is called within scope of
WITH-INDIRECT-ERROR-HANDLER
.
3.2.9 Generic USER-SETUP-URL
op message ⇒ uri
URI for user setup to return on failed immediate request.
When NIL is returned, no user_setup_url is sent in setup_needed responses.
This generic should be specialized on concrete Provider classes to provide entry point to user authentication dialogue.
Default method always returns NIL.
3.2.10 Generic HANDLE-CHECKID-SETUP
op message ⇒ response values
Handle checkid_setup requests.
This generic should be specialized on concrete Provider classes to
perform login checks with user dialogue, that would (possibly
after some HTTP request-response cycles) end in either
SUCCESSFUL-RESPONSE
, or in CANCEL-RESPONSE
.
Default method always fails.
This generic is called within scope of
WITH-INDIRECT-ERROR-HANDLER
.
3.2.11 Protocol messages
Messages passed between OpenID Provider and the Relying Party are composed of key-value pairs. Natural Lisp representation of those, and the one used in CL-OpenID, is an association list. A handful of conveniense function is provided to avoid tweaking messages on cons level.
3.2.11.1 Function MAKE-MESSAGE
&rest parameters ⇒ message
Make new message from arbitrary keyword parameters.
Keyword specifies a message field key (actual key is lowercased symbol name), and value following the keyword specifies associated value.
Value can be a string (which will be literal field value), symbol (symbol's name will be used as a value), vector of (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8) (which will be Base64-encoded), URI object or integer (which both will be PRINC-TO-STRING-ed).
If value is NIL, field won't be included in the message at all.
3.2.11.2 Function COPY-MESSAGE
message &rest parameters ⇒ message
Create a copy of MESSAGE, updating PARAMETERS provided as keyword parameters.
If MESSAGE already includes provided key, new value is used in the result; if a key is new, the field will be appended to result message. PARAMETERS are interpreted as by MAKE-MESSAGE function.
3.2.11.3 Function IN-NS
message &optional namespace ⇒ message
Add openid.namespace namespace to message.
Default namespace is OpenID v2. Returns updated message alist.
3.2.11.4 Function MESSAGE-FIELD
message field-name ⇒ value
Get value of field-name field from message.
3.2.11.5 Function MESSAGE-V2-P
message ⇒ boolean
True if message is an OpenID v2 message (namespace check).
