问题
I have not been able to divine the way I might add extra claims from my application database. Given my limited understanding, I see two ways:
- After successful authentication have keycloak pull extra claims from the application database somehow. This app database is postgres, for example.
- Have the application update the jwt with extra claims using a shared key.
I would like some feedback both paths. I feel that the fist option may be safer. However I am not sure where to begin that implementation journey.

Answering my own question here. I cross-posted this question to the Keycloak users mailing list here (http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/keycloak-user/2017-April/010315.html) and got an answer that seems reasonable.
This is pasted from the answer I received there.
I use the first option. I do it with a protocol mapper, which is a convenient place to do it because there the token is already built by keycloak but hasn't been signed yet. This is the procedure :
User logs in
My custom protocol mapper gets called, where I overwrite the
transformAccessTokenmethodHere I log in the client where the protocol mapper is in into keycloak, as a service. Here don't forget to use another client ID instead the one you're building the protocol mapper for, you'll enter an endless recursion otherwise.
I get the access token into the protocol mapper and I call the rest endpoint of my application to grab the extra claims, which is secured
Get the info returned by the endpoint and add it as extra claims
