CoovaAAA Captive Portal Resources

CoovaChilli Web Services

https://coova.org/app/uam/chilli
A general purpose captive portal providing a simple Javascript/JSON login and status page. Account and access code forms are provided with a default access code realm of code - which can be changed by adding a code=otherrealm query string parameter. Similarly, a form for OpenID logins (assuming you have openid enabled in CoovaChilli) can be added with the query string parameter openid=1. This captive portal is made up of 3 main parts: Javascript, CSS code, and the form HTML. The URL can be used as mentioned combining the three. Or, each part of the application can be used separately using query parameters part=js, part=css, or part=html respectively. See below for how to assemble the parts in any HTML page.
https://coova.org/app/uam/auth
A simple SSL protected login URL suitable for WISPr and the uamService option in the CoovaChilli JSON interface.

Basic Configuration

Configuration settings for CoovaChilli:

uamserver 
https://coova.org/app/uam/chilli
wisprlogin 
https://coova.org/app/uam/auth
uamallowed 
coova.org
uamsecret 
<unset or emty string>
radiussecret 
<from your CoovaAAA account>
Image:LoginWithOpenID.jpg

If allowing OpenID authentication, adjust the above with:

uamserver 
https://coova.org/app/uam/chilli?openid=1
openid 
(this flag option has no argument)

The default form with the OpenID option is shown above. For more information about configuration options, see the chilli.conf(5) man page.

Here is a sample of the /etc/chilli/config (or maybe /usr/local/etc/chilli/config) configuration file: 

HS_UAMSERVER="coova.org"
HS_UAMFORMAT="https://\$HS_UAMSERVER/app/uam/chilli"
HS_UAMSERVICE="https://coova.org/app/uam/auth"
HS_RADCONF="off"
HS_UAMSECRET=

Using Any Page

You are also able to use the same hotspot login box above in your own page! All it takes is a little HTML - no programming required. Here is example:

'Chilli Config'

uamserver 
http://www.example.com/my-page.html?openid=1
openid 
(this flag option has no argument)

In my-page.html 


 <html>
 <head>
 <style>
 ... (style the chilli login boxes here)
 </style>
 </head>
 <body>
 ....  
 <script id='chillijs' src='https://coova.org/js/coova-chilli.js'></script>
 ....
 </head>

The above code will use the form hosted by coova.org. You are also able to use the javascript and login form embedded with coova-chilli, as described in this article. A my-page.html example using this login form: 


 <script id='chillijs' src='http://coova.org/js/chilli.js'></script>
