kanidm-up-pass

A small Vue interface to reset Kanidm user and POSIX passwords to the same value from a credential reset token.

Run

npm install
npm run dev

Build for production:

npm run build

Usage

1. Open the app with a reset token in the URL: http://localhost:5173/?token=<credential-update-intent-token>
2. Enter your new password and confirm it.
3. Submit.

The app connects directly to Kanidm:

1. POST /v1/credential/_exchange_intent with the token.
2. POST /v1/credential/_update with password.
3. POST /v1/credential/_update with unixpassword.
4. POST /v1/credential/_commit.

The UI supports English and German and lets users switch language in the page header.

Configuration

Set your Kanidm base URL in .env:

cp .env.example .env

Example:

VITE_KANIDM_BASE_URL=https://kanidm.example.com

Notes

• The token is read from the URL and then removed from the browser address bar.
• No backend is used; browser CORS access to Kanidm must be allowed for your app origin.
