Thanks! However, I'll need to test it next weekend. Any reviews in the meantime would be greatly appreciated.

I'd be happy to test it. Could you provide instructions on what needs to be done? Would simply applying diffs be sufficient, or should something else be changed in my docker-compose/config as well?

P.S: sorry for the off-topic. @davrot - try setting up authentik+traefik: https://goneuland.de/authentik-in-kombination-mit-traefik/

Maybe I summarize what I did with https://github.com/davrot/ldap-overleaf-sl:

1. I modified scripts/make_diffs.sh: "diff -u " Then I downloaded the old files and applied the old patches. After that I re-created the old patches with more context than just the line numbers.

2. I hacked together ldap-overleaf-sl/extract_files_from_git.sh which takes the required files from the overleaf git.

2b. I made a diff between the old unpatched filed and the new unpatched files, to understand the changes done since then.

3. ldap-overleaf-sl/apply_diffs_5.sh applies the new new patches to the new files. Most of the re-created old patches with the -u extended information worked out of the box. Two or three patches, I had to modify according the information from 2b.

@VPaulV At that point I noticed that I am too stupid for authentik. The installation seemed to work fine. I made even my own ansible installation script:

https://github.com/davrot/overleaf_ansible/blob/main/useless/install_authentik.yaml

But I was not able to connect my portainer ( https://docs.goauthentik.io/integrations/services/portainer/ ) to it nor to get a valid token with python. I tried stuff like this (and variants)

client = BackendApplicationClient(client_id=client_id)
oauth = OAuth2Session(client=client)
token = oauth.fetch_token(
token_url=token_url,
client_id=client_id,
client_secret=client_secret,
include_client_id=True,
verify=False,
)

for hours. At that point I was pondering my life decision. Maybe I should do something with wood or garden?

oh, BTW there might be a problem with the update of Tex. The Tex people moved to 2024 and the overleaf docker has still 2023.

I worked around it by creating a volume (please ignore the ansible style :-) ):

- name: Create a volume overleaf_tex2024
  community.docker.docker_volume:
    name: overleaf_tex2024
    state: present

and use the docker volume function to put it at the position of 2023:

    volumes:
        - "overleaf_data:/var/lib/overleaf"
        - "overleaf_tex2024:/usr/local/texlive/2024"
        - "overleaf_tex2024:/usr/local/texlive/2023"

And finally I auto installed tex 2024 into the volume:

• name: update tex
  hosts: all
  become: true

  tasks:

  • name: Update tex
    community.docker.docker_container_exec:
    container: overleaf
    command: /bin/bash -c "cd /root ; rm -rf install-tl-* ; curl -L -o tl-unx.tar.gz https://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/install-tl-unx.tar.gz ; tar -xzf tl-unx.tar.gz; cd install-tl-*; perl ./install-tl --no-interaction "

Is there by any chance an updated patch set for the current version (5.1.1) somewhere?

Hi @thmo, if you only need OAuth 2 and don't use LDAP, you may use https://github.com/aeecleclair/ldap-overleaf-sl/tree/5.1.1
Don't forget to update your docker-compose and migrate your database if you want to upgrade an existing installation
