Getting Started
Authelia can be tested in a matter of seconds with Docker and docker-compose.
In order to deploy the current version of Authelia locally, run the following command and follow the instructions of bootstrap.sh:
$ source bootstrap.sh
Then, start the Standalone suite.
$ authelia-scripts suites setup Standalone
A suite is kind of a virtual environment for running Authelia in a complete ecosystem. If you want more details please read the related documentation.
Test it!
After few seconds the services should be running and you should be able to visit https://home.example.com:8080/.
When accessing the login page, since this is a test environment a self-signed certificate exception should appear, it has to be trusted before you can get to the home page. The certificate must also be trusted for each subdomain, therefore it is normal to see this exception several times.
Below is what the login page looks like after you accepted all exceptions:
You can use one of the users listed in https://home.example.com:8080/. The rights granted to each user and group is also provided in the page as a list of rules.
At some point, you'll be required to register your second factor device. Since your security is Authelia's priority, it will send an email to the email address of the user to confirm the user identity. Since you are running a test environment, a fake webmail called MailCatcher has been deployed for you to check out the email and confirm your identity. The webmail is accessible at http://mail.example.com:8080.
Enjoy!
