> Bexio OAuth2 strategy for Überauth.

## Installation

1.  Setup your application at [Bexio Developer](https://developer.bexio.com/).

2.  Add `:ueberauth_bexio` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

    ```elixir
    def deps do
      [
        {:ueberauth_bexio, "~> 0.5.0"}
      ]
    end
    ```

3.  Add Bexio to your Überauth configuration:

    ```elixir
    config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
      providers: [
        bexio: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Bexio, []}
      ]
    ```

4.  Update your provider configuration:

    Use that if you want to read client ID/secret from the environment
    variables in the compile time:

    ```elixir
    config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Bexio.OAuth,
      client_id: System.get_env("BEXIO_CLIENT_ID"),
      client_secret: System.get_env("BEXIO_CLIENT_SECRET")
    ```

    Use that if you want to read client ID/secret from the environment
    variables in the run time:

    ```elixir
    config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Bexio.OAuth,
      client_id: {System, :get_env, ["BEXIO_CLIENT_ID"]},
      client_secret: {System, :get_env, ["BEXIO_CLIENT_SECRET"]}
    ```

5.  Include the Überauth plug in your controller:

    ```elixir
    defmodule MyApp.AuthController do
      use MyApp.Web, :controller
      plug Ueberauth
      ...
    end
    ```

6.  Create the request and callback routes if you haven't already:

    ```elixir
    scope "/auth", MyApp do
      pipe_through :browser

      get "/:provider", AuthController, :request
      get "/:provider/callback", AuthController, :callback
    end
    ```

7.  Your controller needs to implement callbacks to deal with `Ueberauth.Auth` and `Ueberauth.Failure` responses.

For an example implementation see the [Überauth Example](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_example) application.

## Calling

Depending on the configured url you can initiate the request through:

    /auth/bexio

Or with options:

    /auth/bexio?scope=email%20profile

By default the requested scope is "email profile openid". Scope can be configured either explicitly as a `scope` query value on the request path or in your configuration:

```elixir
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
  providers: [
    bexio: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Bexio, [default_scope: "openid email profile company_profile"]}
  ]
```

To guard against client-side request modification, it's important to still check the domain in `info.urls[:website]` within the `Ueberauth.Auth` struct if you want to limit sign-in to a specific domain.

## Single logout

The strategy builds the Keycloak/OIDC end-session (RP-initiated logout) URL from the `"end_session_endpoint"` published in the Bexio realm's OpenID Connect discovery document:

```elixir
Ueberauth.Strategy.Bexio.logout_url()
#=> "https://auth.bexio.com/realms/bexio/protocol/openid-connect/logout"
```

It accepts optional `:client_id`, `:post_logout_redirect_uri`, and `:id_token_hint` options and returns the full URL with the query params encoded.

Reading the URL requires a request to the discovery document — cache the result in your application if you log out frequently. If the provider does not publish an `"end_session_endpoint"` (or discovery fails), `logout_url/1` returns `nil`; handle that by only clearing your local session.

Use it in your log-out action: clear the local session first, then redirect the user to the end-session endpoint:

```elixir
def delete(conn, _params) do
  case Ueberauth.Strategy.Bexio.logout_url(
         client_id: "my_client",
         post_logout_redirect_uri: "https://myapp.example.com/logged_out",
         id_token_hint: id_token
       ) do
    nil ->
      # Single logout not available — only clear the local session
      conn
      |> configure_session(drop: true)
      |> clear_session()
      |> redirect(to: "/")

    logout_url ->
      conn
      |> configure_session(drop: true)
      |> clear_session()
      |> redirect(external: logout_url)
  end
end
```

If you use `:post_logout_redirect_uri`, the URI must be registered as an allowed post-logout redirect for your application in the [Bexio developer portal](https://developer.bexio.com/); otherwise Bexio will reject the logout request.
