ORY Hydra is a hardened, OpenID Certified OAuth 2.0 Server and OpenID Connect Provider optimized for low-latency, high throughput, and low resource consumption. ORY Hydra is not an identity provider (user sign up, user login, password reset flow), but connects to your existing identity provider through a login and consent app. Implementing the login and consent app in a different language is easy, and exemplary consent apps (Go, Node) and SDKs are provided.
If you're looking to jump straight into it, go ahead:
- Run your own OAuth 2.0 Server - step by step guide: A in-depth look at setting up ORY Hydra and performing a variety of OAuth 2.0 Flows.
- ORY Hydra 5 Minute Tutorial: Set up and use ORY Hydra using Docker Compose in under 5 Minutes. Good for quickly hacking a Proof of Concept.

What is ORY Hydra?
ORY Hydra is a server implementation of the OAuth 2.0 authorization framework and the OpenID Connect Core 1.0. Existing OAuth2 implementations usually ship as libraries or SDKs such as node-oauth2-server or fosite, or as fully featured identity solutions with user management and user interfaces, such as Dex.
Implementing and using OAuth2 without understanding the whole specification is challenging and prone to errors, even when SDKs are being used. The primary goal of ORY Hydra is to make OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect 1.0 better accessible.
ORY Hydra implements the flows described in OAuth2 and OpenID Connect 1.0 without forcing you to use a "Hydra User Management" or some template engine or a predefined front-end. Instead it relies on HTTP redirection and cryptographic methods to verify user consent allowing you to use ORY Hydra with any authentication endpoint, be it authboss, User Frosting or your proprietary Java authentication.

OAuth2 and OpenID Connect: Open Standards!
ORY Hydra implements Open Standards set by the IETF:
- The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework
- OAuth 2.0 Threat Model and Security Considerations
- OAuth 2.0 Token Revocation
- OAuth 2.0 Token Introspection
- OAuth 2.0 for Native Apps
- Proof Key for Code Exchange by OAuth Public Clients
and the OpenID Foundation:
- OpenID Connect Core 1.0
- OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0
- OpenID Connect Dynamic Client Registration 1.0

OpenID Connect Certified
ORY Hydra is an OpenID Foundation certified OpenID Provider (OP).
The following OpenID profiles are certified:
-
Basic OpenID Provider (response types
code) -
Implicit OpenID Provider (response types
id_token,id_token+token) -
Hybrid OpenID Provider (response types
code+id_token,code+id_token+token,code+token) - OpenID Provider Publishing Configuration Information
- Dynamic OpenID Provider
To obtain certification, we deployed the reference user login and consent app (unmodified) and ORY Hydra v1.0.0.
Quickstart
This section is a quickstart guide to working with ORY Hydra. In-depth docs are available as well:
5 minutes tutorial: Run your very own OAuth2 environment
The tutorial teaches you to set up ORY Hydra, a Postgres instance and an exemplary identity provider written in React using docker-compose. It will take you about 5 minutes to complete the tutorial.
Installation
Head over to the ORY Developer Documentation to learn how to install ORY Hydra on Linux, macOS, Windows, and Docker and how to build ORY Hydra from source.
Ecosystem
ORY Security Console: Administrative User Interface
The ORY Security Console is a visual admin interface for managing ORY Hydra, ORY Oathkeeper, and ORY Keto.
ORY Oathkeeper: Identity & Access Proxy
ORY Oathkeeper is a BeyondCorp/Zero Trust Identity & Access Proxy (IAP) built on top of OAuth2 and ORY Hydra.
ORY Keto: Access Control Policies as a Server
ORY Keto is a policy decision point. It uses a set of access control policies, similar to AWS IAM Policies, in order to determine whether a subject (user, application, service, car, ...) is authorized to perform a certain action on a resource.
Examples
The ory/examples repository contains numerous examples of setting up this project individually and together with other services from the ORY Ecosystem.
Security
Why should I use ORY Hydra? It's not that hard to implement two OAuth2 endpoints and there are numerous SDKs out there!
OAuth2 and OAuth2 related specifications are over 400 written pages. Implementing OAuth2 is easy, getting it right is hard. ORY Hydra is trusted by companies all around the world, has a vibrant community and faces millions of requests in production each day. Of course, we also compiled a security guide with more details on cryptography and security concepts. Read the security guide now.

Command line documentation
Run hydra -h or hydra help.
Develop
We encourage all contributions and encourage you to read our contribution guidelines
Dependencies
You need Go 1.13+ with GO111MODULE=on and (for the test suites):
- Docker and Docker Compose
- Makefile
- NodeJS / npm
It is possible to develop ORY Hydra on Windows, but please be aware that all guides assume a Unix shell like bash or zsh.
Workflows
Install Tools
When cloning ORY Hydra, run make tools. It will download several required dependencies. If you haven't run the command
in a while it's probably a good idea to run it again.
Formatting Code
You can format all code using make format. Our CI checks if your code is properly formatted.
Running Tests
There are three types of tests you can run:
- Short tests (do not require a SQL database like PostgreSQL)
- Regular tests (do require PostgreSQL, MySQL, CockroachDB)
- End to end tests (do require databases and will use a test browser)
Short Tests
Short tests run fairly quickly. You can either test all of the code at once
go test -short ./...or test just a specific module:
cd client; go test -short .Regular Tests
Regular tests require a database set up. Our test suite is able to work with docker directly (using ory/dockertest) but we encourage to use the Makefile instead. Using dockertest can bloat the number of Docker Images on your system and are quite slow. Instead we recommend doing:
make testPlease be aware that make test recreates the databases every time you run make test. This can be annoying if
you are trying to fix something very specific and need the database tests all the time. In that case we
suggest that you initialize the databases with:
make resetdb
export TEST_DATABASE_MYSQL='mysql://root:secret@(127.0.0.1:3444)/mysql?parseTime=true'
export TEST_DATABASE_POSTGRESQL='postgres://postgres:secret@127.0.0.1:3445/hydra?sslmode=disable'
export TEST_DATABASE_COCKROACHDB='cockroach://root@127.0.0.1:3446/defaultdb?sslmode=disable'Then you can run go test as often as you'd like:
go test ./...
# or in a module:
cd client; go test .E2E Tests
The E2E tests use Cypress to run full browser tests. You can execute these tests with:
make e2e
The runner will not show the Browser window, as it runs in the CI Mode (background). That makes debugging these type of tests very difficult, but thankfully you can run the e2e test in the browser which helps with debugging! Just run:
./test/e2e/circle-ci.bash memory --watch
# Or for the JSON Web Token Access Token strategy:
# ./test/e2e/circle-ci.bash memory-jwt --watchor if you would like to test one of the databases:
make resetdb
export TEST_DATABASE_MYSQL='mysql://root:secret@(127.0.0.1:3444)/mysql?parseTime=true'
export TEST_DATABASE_POSTGRESQL='postgres://postgres:secret@127.0.0.1:3445/hydra?sslmode=disable'
export TEST_DATABASE_COCKROACHDB='cockroach://root@127.0.0.1:3446/defaultdb?sslmode=disable'
# You can test against each individual database:
./test/e2e/circle-ci.bash postgres --watch
./test/e2e/circle-ci.bash memory --watch
./test/e2e/circle-ci.bash mysql --watch
# ...Once you run the script, a Cypress window will appear. Hit the button "Run all Specs"!
The code for these tests is located in ./cypress/integration and ./cypress/support and ./cypress/helpers. The website you're seeing is located in ./test/e2e/oauth2-client.
Making SQL Changes
We embed the SQL files into the binary. If you make changes to any .sql file, you need to run:
make sqlbinBuild Docker
You can build a development Docker Image using:
make dockerRun the Docker Compose quickstarts
If you wish to check your code changes against any of the docker-compose quickstart files, run:
make docker
docker compose -f quickstart.yml up # ....Libraries and third-party projects
