When we redirected to Keycloak the user suffers from a harsh context switch.
Keycloak does offer a way to customize theses pages but it requires a lot of raw HTML/CSS hacking
to reproduce the look and feel of a specific app. Not mentioning the maintenance cost of such an endeavour.

Keycloak theme will still work.
In this mode (the default) every asset are served by the keycloak server. It is
convergent for debugging but it production you probably want the assets to be
fetched from your app.
Indeed
Indeed in the default mode your users have to download again the whole app just
to access the login page. You probably have [long-term asset caching](https://create-react-app.dev/docs/production-build/#static-file-caching)
enabled in the server that host your app ([example](https://github.com/garronej/keycloakify-demo-app/blob/224c43383548635a463fa68e8909c147ac189f0e/nginx.conf#L14))
so it's better if only the html is served by the Keycloak server and everything
else, your JS bundles, your CSS ect point to your app.
To enable this behavior you car run:
```bash
npx build-keycloak-theme --external-assets
```
(instead of `npx build-keycloak-theme`)
This is something you probably want to do in your CI pipeline. [Example](https://github.com/garronej/keycloakify-demo-app/blob/224c43383548635a463fa68e8909c147ac189f0e/.github/workflows/ci.yaml#L112)
Also note that there is [a same-origin policy exception for fonts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same-origin_policy#cite_note-3) so you must enabled
CORS for fonts on the server hosting your app. Concretely this mean that your server should add a `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` response header to
GET request on *.woff2?. [Example with Nginx](https://github.com/garronej/keycloakify-demo-app/blob/224c43383548635a463fa68e8909c147ac189f0e/nginx.conf#L18-L20)

# Requirements and limitations
# Requirements
Tested with the following Keycloak versions:
- [11.0.3](https://hub.docker.com/layers/jboss/keycloak/11.0.3/images/sha256-4438f1e51c1369371cb807dffa526e1208086b3ebb9cab009830a178de949782?context=explore)

This tool will be maintained to stay compatible with Keycloak v11 and up, however, the default pages you will get
(before you customize it) will always be the ones of the Keycloak v11.
This tools assumes you are bundling your app with Webpack (tested with 4.44.2) .
It assumes there is a `build/` directory at the root of your react project directory containing a `index.html` file
and a `static/` directory generated by webpack.
and a `build/static/` directory generated by webpack.
**All this is defaults with [`create-react-app`](https://create-react-app.dev)** (tested with 4.0.3=)
- For building the theme: `mvn` (Maven) must be installed
- For development, (testing the theme in a local container ): `rm`, `mkdir`, `wget`, `unzip` are assumed to be available
- For development (testing the theme in a local container ): `rm`, `mkdir`, `wget`, `unzip` are assumed to be available
and `docker` up and running.
NOTE: This build tool has only be tested on MacOS.
# Limitations
In the standalone mode (when you run `npx build-keycloak-theme` without `--external-assets`) the fonts won't work if you are self
hosting them. This, for example, wont work: [`src: url("/assets/worksans-bold-webfont.woff2") format("woff2")`](https://github.com/InseeFrLab/onyxia-ui/blob/b24df3a9b34b505ce00619bb8ec0174223ecfaca/src/app/theme/fonts.scss#L5-L6)
you will have to [host them externally](https://github.com/InseeFrLab/onyxia-ui/blob/43bf4a508419072a4ae202698e59d20b69feb9c0/src/app/theme/fonts.scss#L8-L9)
on a server that has CORS enabled.
Again this apply ony if you are not building your theme with `--external-assets` which is advised against in production.
