# ^NON \[anon\]

Extremely rudimentary OIDC provider. Users hold account codes from which
their identities are derived on-demand.

Each identity is separate for different services, but can be accessed from a
single account code. ^NON does not have a database of the users, so nobody
can correlate user information across services.

## Installation

1. build binary with `cargo`

2. fill out `config.yml.sample`. The server expects a file called
   `config.yml` in its working directory.

3. Generate the keypair for signing JWT tokens with:
   ```bash
   openssl genpkey -algorithm RSA -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:2048 -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_pubexp:65537 | \
      openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -nocrypt -outform der > rsa-key.pk8
   ```

4. Enjoy :)

Alternatively you can use the pre-built docker image:
```
git.nolog.cz/nolog.cz/anon:latest
```

## Deployment notes

When deploying, you should be aware of the potential of a birthday attack on
the system. For `v1` of the account code, we should expect a collision after
about `2^36` unique accounts, which means that, without rate-limiting, there is
the potential to brute-force an account / accidentally log into someone else's
account. You should consider the amount of users which will use the system, and
set up a rate-limiter.

Improbable things happen all the time, so better safe than sorry :)
