Discovery may be used also in embedded fashion. For that to work authentication needs to be triggered from a page that includes javascript that provides the functionality. Here we provide examples for Shibboleth SP and SimpleSAMLphp.

Shibboleth SP

This example relies on having eduTEAMS discovery set as default login handler discovery service.

Code Block
titlefile:/etc/shibboleth/shibboleth2.xml
<SSO
    discoveryProtocol="SAMLDS" 
    discoveryURL="https://discovery.eduteams.org/wayf.php">
    SAML2 SAML1 
</SSO>

If you use the discovery in embedded fashion you need to include javascript in  head element on the page triggering the authentication,

Code Block
titleIncluding javascript
<head>
    <!-- HTML elements -->
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://discovery.eduteams.org/ds.js"></script>
    <!-- HTML elements -->
</head>

and then display the element itself that triggers the authentication as defined in default handler.

Code Block
titleLogin element
<a href="/Shibboleth.sso/Login" onclick="startOverlay(event)">Log in</a>

As a result the discovery is shown in embedded fashion.

SimpleSAMLphp

This example relies on having eduTEAMS discovery set as default sp discovery service.

Code Block
titleauthsources.php
'default-sp' => array(
    'saml:SP',
    'entityID' => 'https://sp.example.com/simplesaml/',
    'idp' => NULL,
    'discoURL' => 'https://discovery.eduteams.org/wayf.php',
    'privatekey' => 'example.key'
),

Code Block
titleLogin element
<a href="/simplesaml/module.php/core/authenticate.php" onclick="startOverlay(event)">Log in</a>
