wmantly 3287777b9b v1.30.0: rename theta-env -> theta-suite + docs rewrite + sso v1.16.1 (#126)
Rename the project to theta-suite (it is now an integrated suite of four
apps around a shared OpenBao secrets store, not a two-project env).
- theta-env -> theta-suite across the superproject: _config.yml (title +
  baseurl /theta-suite + repo URLs), README, setup.sh (incl. the
  THETA_SUITE_REEXECED self-update sentinel), docker-compose.yml,
  bootstrap.js, lint.yml, config.example/*, docs/robots.txt, all docs,
  this changelog.
- architecture.md rewritten: real 4-service + ldap-client topology, OpenBao
  secrets section, OpenBao-aware config flow; removed "two containers" /
  "three repos" / LDAP-"legacy" framing.
- index.md: integrated-suite framing + secrets/OpenBao + ldap-client.
- standalone.md + README: standalone reframed as advanced opt-in.
- sso-manager-node submodule -> v1.16.1 (401 fix on /conf and /vault).

default Home A unified, one-command SSO Manager + OIDC proxy stack for home labs and small businesses. Wires together a self-hosted identity provider and a reverse proxy with one setup.sh.

theta-suite

The whole theta42 identity, access, and secrets stack in one repo, brought up with a single command — for home labs and small businesses.

It composes four applications around a shared secrets store: SSO Manager (OIDC provider + LDAP directory), Proxy (an OIDC-protected reverse proxy that can also look users up directly in LDAP), Jump Host (directory-driven SSH access through one public entry point), and ldap-client (enrolls your Linux hosts into the directory for PAM/SSSD, sudo, and SSH keys). All of them read their secrets at boot from OpenBao, the central secrets store. setup.sh automates the fiddly part: registering the proxy as an OIDC client of the SSO, pointing every component at the right LDAP directory and the OpenBao token it needs, and generating hostnames and secrets from one setup.env.

Screenshots

The SSO Manager and the proxy it fronts, both stood up by one ./setup.sh run:

Why this over running them separately

The components are designed to integrate — they're only useful together once the proxy is registered as an OIDC client of the SSO and pointed at the SSO's LDAP directory — and the domain has to match across half a dozen config fields, or logins silently fail. Doing that by hand is fiddly. setup.sh asks for your domain once, generates both apps' config with it filled in everywhere, registers the proxy as an OIDC client automatically, and snapshots state before every rebuild.

What you get

  • SSO Manager, fronted by the proxy under TLS — manage users, groups, and OAuth clients.
  • Proxy — add the hosts you want to protect with OIDC login.
  • LDAPS for direct binds — Linux hosts (PAM/SSSD, sudo, SSH keys) and LDAP-native apps authenticate against the same directory.
  • ldap-client — enroll Linux hosts into the directory (PAM/SSSD login, sudo, SSH keys); the host inventory shows up in the SSO UI and drives jump-host routing.
  • SSH Jump Hostssh uid_-_host@jump.<domain> (WinSCP-friendly) or an interactive picker; access is driven by directory group membership, with a web UI for audit + metrics.
  • Central secrets (OpenBao) — every component loads its secrets from one OpenBao instance at boot; each user gets personal secret storage, and admins mint scoped tokens for external apps. See Secrets.
  • Self-service API tokens in both apps' UIs, for scripting/CI without a browser session.
  • Multi-Site Support (Geo-Location Scaling) — built-in support for N-Way Multi-Master LDAP replication across physical locations.
  • Multi-target load balancing — built-in proxy support for round-robin load balancing across multiple application servers.

Get it

git clone --recursive https://github.com/theta42/theta-suite.git
cd theta-suite
cp setup.env.example setup.env     # then edit setup.env: set CFG_DOMAIN to your domain
./setup.sh

You need Docker + Docker Compose. ./setup.sh is idempotent — re-run any time to converge the stack to ./config/. For the full config reference, architecture, and running each project standalone, see the GitHub repository.

  • SSO Manager — the OIDC provider + LDAP directory this stack runs.
  • Proxy — the reverse proxy this stack runs in front of it.
  • Jump Host — the SSH jump host this stack brings up.
  • ldap-client — enrolls Linux hosts into the directory this stack serves.
