Feature Request - Third party authentication via trusted headers or OpenID
Many homelabs these days are employing some form of SSO to host their applications and consolidate their user access. It would be neat to have this in Swing as well.
I had a cursory glance at the code and I am not sure if I am able to comtribute the feature myself but I will try.
What I would love to see would be
- a possibility to authenticate users externally either via a call to an OIDC provider or via trusted headers from a reverse proxy
- a possibility to automatically create users in the local DB that are logging in via external means
From glancing at it this shouldn't require too much changes to the local user db if at all. I don't know about the login procedure.
This is the documentation for how navidrome does it. They maintain the local user and password (in their case for subsonic API compatibility)

Hi, I'm also really interested in that feature, but personally I use PocketID as an OIDC provider.
