Customize Approval Page#

To use a customized approval page, set the INRUPT_OPENID_APPROVAL_TEMPLATE_LOCATION property of the ESS’ OpenID Provider.

Example Customization#

In the following, the example customization file specifies the path of the new approval page.

Go to your ESS installation directory:
```
cd ${HOME}/ess
```
Add your new approval page file. In this example, the new file is named approval.html

Create a custom-approval-env.yaml file:

#custom-approval-env.yaml

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: ess-openid
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: ess-openid
          env:
            - name: INRUPT_OPENID_APPROVAL_TEMPLATE_LOCATION
              value: approval.html

The INRUPT_OPENID_APPROVAL_TEMPLATE_LOCATION specifies the location to the new approval page.

Modify the kustomization.yaml (i.e., step 3 of the Applying Your Customizations procedure).

Specifically, add the highlighted content to the kustomization.yaml file under the patchesStrategicMerge key:

Tip

If patchesStrategicMerge key does not exist in kustomization.yaml, add the key patchesStrategicMerge as well.
```
# kustomization.yaml in your ESS installation directory

# ...  Preceding content omitted for brevity 
# ...

patchesStrategicMerge:
  - custom-approval-env.yaml
```
Continue with the rest of the Applying Your Customizations procedure.
