Extension:CryoKey

The CryoKey extension will add support for CryoKey credentials as an alternative to traditional usernames and passwords.

Installation
Copy the CryoKey.i18n.php, cryokey.php, cryokey.js, and ckicon.png files into your MediaWiki extensions directory. Make sure the files are all in the same directory. Then, add a line to the bottom of LocalSettings.php (using the actual path):

require_once("$IP/extensions/cryokey.php");

Verify the installation by checking Special:Version on your wiki.

The extension authenticates users based on their E-Mail address. CryoKey authentication is optional, and shows up as a separate link in the UserLogin page. If the user provides CryoKey credentials, then the extension will grant access to the first user with a matching E-Mail address. If you set  to   in LocalSettings.php, then the extension will automatically try to register a new user using the E-Mail address found in the CryoKey credentials bound to a random username and password. (By default,  is  . If you change the setting, make sure you set the value after the line that loads the extension.)
