OpenID Connect vs kong-oidc

1

from this link https://docs.konghq.com/hub/kong-inc/openid-connect/
i understood OpenID Connect is plugin only available for enterprise edition.
I am using kong community version
i was going through this plugin https://github.com/nokia/kong-oidc
and could not make out the difference between these two.
1)does the second one has all the capabilities of openid-connect?
2) kong-oidc is combination of kong+oidc?
3) kong is already running in my docker, if i get the kong-oidc plugin, that comes with another kong image? how to get only oidc plugin if the kong-oidc comes with kong again?

Thanks

Hi,

This is what I have managed to get.

OpenID Connect | Kong Docs this one comes with EE and obviously you get Kong Inc support etc.

GitHub - nokia/kong-oidc: OIDC plugin for Kong was developed by Nokia for their own use although they released it to the public.

That’s what I think :slight_smile:

Ok. that makes sense to me.
the documentation provided here https://github.com/nokia/kong-oidc some how not working for me Please share the steps if you can successfully install only plugin on existing kong instance
Thanks
