Example project to get started with Buffalo and jwt

GO with JWT

This is an example project to give you some hints in order to integrate jwt authentication with Buffalo.

There is a blog post on Medium that explains part of the code you'll find here.

Starting the Application

You can run the app with:

$ JWT_KEY_PATH=/{project-path}/jwtRS256.key buffalo dev

Two routes are set:

// Requires email and password. Response contains a JWT token
$ POST http://127.0.0.1:3000/api/v1/auth/login

// Requires JWT token set in Authorization header
$ GET http://127.0.0.1:3000/api/v1/users/me 

Testing the Application

You can run tests with:

$ JWT_KEY_PATH=/{project-path}/jwtRS256.key buffalo test

Contributing

PRs are very welcome to improve the project as it may be used by many developers to get started with a JWT base Buffalo app.

go-with-jwt's Issues

Run buffalo updatex

Hey, I find your tutorial and this project really helpful. I thought I would recommend you run buffalo updatex and update the main.go to use app.Server as opposed to app.Start to have to project work with the newest buffalo version.

If you'd prefer, I can do a PR as I have already done these few steps and have the test working.
Thanks again!
