We went through a whole process to automate this, talking to the Ipsilon 
IdP. Documented in Ansible:

https://github.com/admiyo/rippowam/tree/master/roles/packstack/tasks

The steps specific to Mellon are here:

Ipsilon is Python, light weight, and in use by the Fedora team.

My team is currently working on getting Federation to work with 
Keycloak, but I don't have that wokring and documented yet. Keycloak is 
a very nice, full featured app, But Java and JBoss, which might work for 
some people and not for others.
