Keycloak 2.2.0.CR1 has just been released. The final release will follow next week if no major issues are reported. Few highlights of this release:
- OpenID Connect certification - We've continued to work on our OpenID Connect implementation and we're now passing the basic, implicit, hybrid and config profiles. We'll get the dynamic profile sorted in the 2.3 release.
- Server config moved to standalone/domain.xml - In the past some server configuration was done in keycloak-server.json and some in standalone/domain.xml. We've now moved all config to standalone/domain.xml and keycloak-server.json is now deprecated. This brings the option to use jboss-cli including offline scripts to automate configuration.
- Manual DB migration - We've had automatic migration of the database for a long time, but we now have an option to have Keycloak write a SQL migration file instead of applying the changes directly.
- Fuse adapter download - There is now a Fuse adapter download that makes it possible to install Keycloak support in Fuse without access to external Maven repository.
- Hot deployment of providers - It's now possible to hot deploy custom providers from within a JEE deployment. We've not had the chance to write documentation around this yet and it could do with a bit more testing so consider it a preview feature. Take a look at the user-storage-jpa provider example though, it's great stuff!
- Identity Provider Authenticator - In the past redirecting to identity providers was hardcoded in the Keycloak code, we've now refactored this into a new authenticator.
- Norwegian, Japanese and Lituanian translations - Keycloak now comes with 11 translations. 10 of them contributed and maintained by our excellent community.
