Single Sign On to multiple sources

[ruhullahshah]

Enhancement Request

We have multiple sources and would like to have a single sign on capability in paket config add-credentials. We wanted to know if there is a plan to have this feature in the future releases and what the Paket community thinks about having SSO in general? If all is OK & you guys have no plans as of now to have this feature, we are happy to fork and work upon constructing this feature.

I personally have not even an idea what that feature means ;-) Could you please elaborate? Am 05.09.2017 9:41 vorm. schrieb "ruhullahshah" <notifications@github.com>:

Thanks for the prompt response :)
So if we have 3 sources hosting NuGets and all of them have the same credentials, instead of doing

paket config add-credentials source1
paket config add-credentials source2
paket config add-credentials source3

every time my credentials (for example: password) change

We could configure paket to pickup the credentials from a single source always....for example windows credentials so that every time I have a change of credentials, the re-configuration is not required.

Hope that clarifies the things a bit.

Basically, in a corporate network, when you do your Windows login (Linux works alike with the corresponding PAM) a special token is acquired. Other applications (web browser, email client, ...) use this token to authenticate the user to further services without prompting for the credentials again.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_sign-on#Kerberos-based for an overview.

The good news: The .NET Framework supports single sign-on. We have written other on-house tools using it and we would like to contribute this feature to Paket.

Cool. Then I think we will be happy to take a PR. PR. Please don't forget to add something to the docs. Am 05.09.2017 3:04 nachm. schrieb "jbaehr" <notifications@github.com>:
