+# Sign into Gitlab with (almost) any OAuth2 provider
+
+The `omniauth-oauth2-generic` gem allows Single Sign On between Gitlab and your own OAuth2 provider (or any simple OAuth2 provider compatible with this gem) 
+
+This strategy is designed to allow configuration of the simple OmniAuth SSO process outlined below:
+
+1. Strategy directs client to your authorization URL (**configurable**), with specified ID and key
+1. OAuth provider handles authentication of request, user, and (optionally) authorization to access user's profile
+1. OAuth provider directs client back to Gitlab where Strategy handles retrieval of access token
+1. Strategy requests user information from a **configurable** "user profile" URL (using the access token)
+1. Strategy parses user information from the response, using a **configurable** format
+1. Gitlab finds or creates the returned user and logs them in
+
+**Limitations of this Strategy:**
+
+- It can only be used for Single Sign on, and will not provide any other access granted by any OAuth provider (such as importing projects or users, etc).
+- It only supports the Authorization Grant flow (most common for client-server applications, like Gitlab)
+- It is not able to fetch user information from more than one URL
+- It has not been tested with user information formats other than JSON
+
+### Config Instructions
+1. To enable the OAuth2 generic strategy you must register your application in the OAuth2 provider you wish to authenticate with. 
+   That provider should generate an ID and secret key for you to use with this strategy.
+
+   The redirect URI you provide when registering the application should be:
+
+    ```
+    http://your-gitlab.host.com/users/auth/oauth2_generic/callback
+    ```
+
+1.  You should now be able to get a Client ID and Client Secret.  Where this shows up will differ for each provider.
+    This may also be called Application ID and Secret.
+
+1.  On your GitLab server, open the configuration file.
+
+    For omnibus package:
+
+    ```sh
+      sudo editor /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
+    ```
+
+    For installations from source:
+
+    ```sh
+      cd /home/git/gitlab
+
+      sudo -u git -H editor config/gitlab.yml
+    ```
+
+1.  See [Initial OmniAuth Configuration](omniauth.md#initial-omniauth-configuration) for initial settings.
+
+1.  Add the provider-specific configuration for your provider, as [described in the gem's README](https://gitlab.com/satorix/omniauth-oauth2-generic#gitlab-config-example)
+
+1.  Save the configuration file.
+
+1.  Restart GitLab for the changes to take effect.
+
+On the sign in page there should now be a new button below the regular sign in form. 
+Click the button to begin your provider's authentication process. This will direct the browser to your OAuth2 Provider's authentication page.
+If everything goes well the user will be returned to your GitLab instance and will be signed in.
