Companion to EduIDE/Docs#12, which makes the same correction in the admin guide.

The client needs redirect URIs for the landing and instance hosts only. Two further settings were shown as a bare + and therefore never described, and both are required:

Root URL:                         https://<landing-host>
Home URL:                         https://<landing-host>
Valid redirect URIs:
  https://<landing-host>/*
  https://instance.<landing-host>/*
Valid post logout redirect URIs:
  https://<landing-host>/
  https://<landing-host>/*
Web origins:
  https://<landing-host>
  https://instance.<landing-host>

The post-logout list needs both the bare / and the /* form. Every value carries the https:// scheme; the web origins carry no path suffix.

Worked examples for test1 and tum-production are spelled out in full.

Also fixes the hostnames

Every example in this file predated the restructure - test1.theia-test.artemis.cit.tum.de and theia.artemis.cit.tum.de. Anyone copying them would have configured a client for hosts that no longer exist, and a wrong authUrl, realm or clientId fails at login rather than at deploy, so nothing in the pipeline would have caught it.

They now use the real landing hosts: test1.eduide.student.k8s.aet.cit.tum.de and eduide.artemis.aet.cit.tum.de.

Note added

The service host and the *.webview.instance. wildcard are deliberately absent. Four hostnames is right for DNS and certificates; the Keycloak client names two. Said explicitly so the next person does not pad the list out.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated the Keycloak setup guide to derive login URLs from a single environment landing host.
    • Added configuration examples for test and production environments.
    • Clarified that service and webview hosts are excluded from redirect flows.
    • Updated the landing-page test URL and expanded troubleshooting guidance for redirect loops.

The client needs redirect URIs for the landing and instance hosts only. The two
settings the guide showed as a bare `+`, and therefore never described, are
required:

  Valid post logout redirect URIs   https://<landing-host>/
                                    https://<landing-host>/*
  Web origins                       https://<landing-host>
                                    https://instance.<landing-host>

The post-logout list needs both the bare `/` and the `/*` form. Every value
carries the https:// scheme, and the web origins carry no path suffix.

Also replaces the pre-restructure hostnames throughout: the worked examples were
still `test1.theia-test.artemis.cit.tum.de` and `theia.artemis.cit.tum.de`, and
now use test1's and tum-production's real landing hosts.

Matches EduIDE/Docs#12.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Keycloak setup guide now derives URL settings from environment landing hosts. It updates test and production examples, changes the landing-page test URL, excludes service and webview hosts from redirects, and expands redirect-loop troubleshooting requirements.

Changes

Keycloak setup documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Landing host URL configuration
docs/keycloak-setup.md
The login settings use landing hosts for Root URL, Home URL, redirect URIs, post-logout URIs, and web origins. Examples cover test1 and tum-production. The guide updates the landing-page test URL and documents required logout URI and web-origin formats.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c0f8a

This documentation-only change does not affect production behavior, but the current guide still has a mismatched setting count and unlabeled code blocks that may reduce clarity or fail linting; merge is reasonable with explicit follow-up on these minor fixes.

Add language identifiers to the fenced examples.

The three fenced code blocks omit language identifiers. Add text or another suitable identifier after each opening fence to satisfy markdownlint MD040.
