jwt4auth library

This repository contains a library that implements user session, authentication, and authorization. It is based on the use of the JWT access token and refreshes token.

The access token is passed to the HTTP the only cookie by default, which should protect it from theft during a cross-site scripting attack.

The refresh token is passed in the body of the response on the login and refresh requests. It is stored in local storage. The refresh token needs to update an access token.

Currently available:

• Server side Python module for aiohttp
• Typescript client library
• React component library

How to start sample application and check it

The best way is to download the repository and run an application in a virtual environment. Run the following commands:

git clone [email protected]:Alesh/jwt4auth.git
cd jwt4auth
python3.8 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -U setuptools
pip install -U pip
pip install -U wheel
pip install nodeenv
nodeenv -p
npm install yarn -g
yarn install
yarn build
python setup.py develop
python -m sample.backend --static-path sample/build

How to use that

There is a good example of a React based app frontend and aiohttp based backend. We hope the sample application helps you to get started using this set of libraries. For more information, see the source code, which is enough documented
