Libre Workspace Version v0.8.3 - SSO for Nextcloud and Element

Good day everyone!

I am happy to announce the release of v0.8.3 today.

Changes

Single Sign On for new Instances

This point release adds SSO for Nextcloud and Element by default for new libre workspace instances. Also new OIDC scopes where been introduced which makes it easier for future SSO integrations.
Also the documentation regarding SSO-Implementation at Libre Workspace has been updated: Libre Workspace Portal

SSO in Action:

Because of matrix synapse the SSO for Element at local instances is disabled. The central usermanagement for synapse is still enabled though.

Jitsi currently only supports SSO with enterprise licences. But central user management will be added in the future through LDAP.

Enable SSO on existing Libre Workspace Instances

Because SSO changes the way of logging in and disables the direct ldap handling for nextcloud and matrix, the automatic activation afterwards is not a good idea.

You can have a look at the script code of the installation for getting all the information you need.

A video on how to migrate to SSO will follow.

Other changes

  • Backup information is now also shown if the backup repo is at a synology station.
  • The admin status sync for nextcloud has been hardned.
  • The backup module now supports additional borg backup options, e.g. to exclude some files/directories.
