|

|

## What should I know before I get started?
|
||||
|
||||
### The components
|
||||
|
||||
authentik consists of a few larger components:
|
||||
|
||||
- *authentik* the actual application server, is described below.
|
||||
- *outpost-proxy* is a Go application based on a forked version of oauth2_proxy, which does identity-aware reverse proxying.
|
||||
- *outpost-ldap* is a Go LDAP server that uses the *authentik* application server as its backend
|
||||
- *web* is the web frontend, both for administrating and using authentik. It is written in TypeScript using lit-html and the PatternFly CSS Library.
|
||||
- *website* is the Website/documentation, which uses docusaurus.
|
||||
|
||||
### authentik's structure
|
||||
|
||||
authentik is at it's very core a Django project. It consists of many individual django applications. These applications are intended to separate concerns, and they may share code between each other.
|
||||
|
||||
These are the current packages:

This django project is running in gunicorn, which spawns multiple workers and threads. Gunicorn is run from a lightweight Go application which reverse-proxies it, handles static files and will eventually gain more functionality as more code is migrated to go.
|
||||
|
||||
There are also several background tasks which run in Celery, the root celery application is defined in `authentik.root.celery`.

## How Can I Contribute?
|
||||
|
||||
### Reporting Bugs
|
||||
|
||||
This section guides you through submitting a bug report for authentik. Following these guidelines helps maintainers and the community understand your report, reproduce the behavior, and find related reports.
|
||||
|
||||
Whenever authentik encounters an error, it will be logged as an Event with the type `system_exception`. This event type has a button to directly open a pre-filled GitHub issue form.
|
||||
|
||||
This form will have the full stack trace of the error that ocurred and shouldn't contain any sensitive data.
|
||||
|
||||
### Suggesting Enhancements
|
||||
|
||||
This section guides you through submitting an enhancement suggestion for authentik, including completely new features and minor improvements to existing functionality. Following these guidelines helps maintainers and the community understand your suggestion and find related suggestions.
|
||||
|
||||
When you are creating an enhancement suggestion, please fill in [the template](https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/issues/new?assignees=&labels=enhancement&template=feature_request.md&title=), including the steps that you imagine you would take if the feature you're requesting existed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Your First Code Contribution
|
||||
|
||||
#### Local development
|
||||
|
||||
authentik can be run locally, all though depending on which part you want to work on, different pre-requisites are required.
|
||||
|
||||
This is documented in the [developer docs](https://goauthentik.io/developer-docs/)
|
||||
|
||||
### Pull Requests
|
||||
|
||||
The process described here has several goals:
|
||||
|
||||
- Maintain authentik's quality
|
||||
- Fix problems that are important to users
|
||||
- Engage the community in working toward the best possible authentik
|
||||
- Enable a sustainable system for authentik's maintainers to review contributions
|
||||
|
||||
Please follow these steps to have your contribution considered by the maintainers:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Follow the [styleguides](#styleguides)
|
||||
2. After you submit your pull request, verify that all [status checks](https://help.github.com/articles/about-status-checks/) are passing <details><summary>What if the status checks are failing?</summary>If a status check is failing, and you believe that the failure is unrelated to your change, please leave a comment on the pull request explaining why you believe the failure is unrelated. A maintainer will re-run the status check for you. If we conclude that the failure was a false positive, then we will open an issue to track that problem with our status check suite.</details>
|
||||
3. Ensure your Code has tests. While it is not always possible to test every single case, the majority of the code should be tested.
|
||||
|
||||
While the prerequisites above must be satisfied prior to having your pull request reviewed, the reviewer(s) may ask you to complete additional design work, tests, or other changes before your pull request can be ultimately accepted.
|
||||
|
||||
## Styleguides
