Using WSL

On a modern Windows system with WSL2 (verified, WSL1 might work) oidc-agent can be used through WSL:

  • If not already done install WSL according to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install

  • Add the oidc-agent repo and install according to http://repo.data.kit.edu for your chosen distribution

  • Add eval $(oidc-agent-service use) to your .bashrc

  • Now oidc-agent and friends can be used from the WSL and windows shell as used to, e.g.

# From WSL 
oidc-token <shortname>

# From Powershell
wsl oidc-token <shortname>

"Native" Installer

We provide an installer for oidc-agent at: http://repo.data.kit.edu/windows/oidc-agent/.

The installer will install all necessary binaries and libraries and oidc-agent is ready to use.

We recommend to use the WSL method instead and only use this is installer if WSL is not possible. It is likely that support for this installer is dropped in the future.
