# Outposts
|
||||
|
||||
An outpost is a single deployment of a passbook component, which can be deployed in a completely separate environment. Currently, only the Proxy Provider is supported as outpost.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Upon creation, a service account and a token is generated. The service account only has permissions to read the outpost and provider configuration. This token is used by the Outpost to connect to passbook.
|
||||
|
||||
To deploy an outpost, you can for example use this docker-compose snippet:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
version: 3.5
|
||||
|
||||
services:
|
||||
passbook_proxy:
|
||||
image: beryju/passbook-proxy:0.10.0-stable
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- 4180:4180
|
||||
- 4443:4443
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
PASSBOOK_HOST: https://your-passbook.tld
|
||||
PASSBOOK_INSECURE: 'true'
|
||||
PASSBOOK_TOKEN: token-generated-by-passbook
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In future versions, this snippet will be automatically generated. You will also be able to deploy an outpost directly into a kubernetes cluster.w

# Proxy Provider
|
||||
|
||||
!!! info
|
||||
This provider is to be used in conjunction with [Outposts](../outposts/outposts.md)
|
||||
|
||||
This provider protects applications, which have no built-in support for OAuth2 or SAML. This is done by running a lightweight Reverse Proxy in front of the application, which authenticates the requests.
|
||||
|
||||
passbook Proxy is based on [oauth2_proxy](https://github.com/oauth2-proxy/oauth2-proxy), but has been integrated more tightly with passbook.

@ -16,6 +16,8 @@ This update brings a lot of big features, such as:
|
||||
|
||||
This is a new Object type, used currently only by the Proxy Provider. It manages the creation and permissions of service accounts, which are used by the outposts to communicate with passbook.
|
||||
|
||||
See [Outposts](../outposts/outposts.md)
|
||||
|
||||
- Flow Import/Export
|
||||
|
||||
Flows can now be imported and exported. This feature can be used as a backup system, or to share complex flows with other people. Example flows have also been added to the documentation to help you get going with passbook.
