Summary

This PR adds support for mapping OAuth user emails to custom preferred usernames via configuration or file.

Motivation

When authenticating via OAuth/OIDC providers that do not provide a preferred_username claim (such as Google OAuth) or where the provider's username does not match downstream account usernames, Tinyauth falls back to auto-generating pseudo-usernames (e.g. <prefix>_<domain>). Downstream applications (such as Home Assistant OIDC auth) often rely on matching preferred_username to link existing local accounts seamlessly.

Changes

  • Added UserMapping ([]string) and UserMappingFile (string) configuration options to both global OAuth and per-provider OAuthServiceConfig.
  • Added utils.ParseUserMapping to parse email:username or email=username pairs (case-insensitive email matching, comments/whitespace handling).
  • Merged global and provider user mappings during bootstrap.
  • Updated OAuthService.GetUserinfo() to set PreferredUsername to the mapped username if the user's email matches an entry.
  • Added comprehensive unit tests in internal/utils and internal/service.
  • Documented environment variables in .env.example.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added configurable email-to-username mappings for OAuth sign-ins, with global settings and provider-specific overrides.
    • Mappings can be supplied directly or loaded from a file. Email matching ignores case and surrounding whitespace.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Preserved existing preferred usernames when no matching mapping is configured.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds global and provider-specific OAuth email-to-username mappings. Bootstrap loads and combines configured entries. OAuthService parses the mappings and applies matching usernames to extracted claims.

Changes

OAuth user mapping

Layer / File(s) Summary
Mapping configuration and loading
internal/model/config.go, .env.example, internal/bootstrap/app_bootstrap.go
Configuration adds global and provider-specific mapping values and file paths. Bootstrap loads both mapping sources and combines global entries with provider-specific entries.
Mapping entry parsing
internal/utils/oauth_utils.go, internal/utils/oauth_utils_test.go
ParseUserMapping handles colon- and equals-separated entries, normalizes email keys, skips blank and comment lines, and allows later entries to override earlier ones. Tests cover these cases and malformed entries.
Applying mappings to OAuth claims
internal/service/oauth_service.go, internal/service/oauth_service_test.go
OAuthService parses mappings during construction and configuration updates. GetUserinfo replaces PreferredUsername when a non-empty mapping matches the normalized email. Tests cover matching and fallback behavior.

An unverified email can receive a configured username during OAuth login. Require verified email ownership before applying mappings, or explicitly accept that behavior before merging.

Require verified email ownership before applying the mapping.

defaultExtractor maps any provider email claim into model.Claims without checking email_verified. GetUserinfo then assigns the mapped username for every non-empty email. A configured provider can therefore produce a mapped PreferredUsername for an unverified address.

Carry the verification result through model.Claims and apply the mapping only when the email is verified. Fail closed when the provider does not supply a verification result.
