PyPi Link - https://pypi.org/project/AuthMe/

Features

1. Regular Auth Flows : Signup, Login, Logout, Password reset
2. Invitations (coming soon)

Essential Things to keep handy, before using

1. A postgresql database, ready to accept connections
2. A secret token to encrypt all tokens
3. All codes returned, are standard http response codes

Installation -

pip install AuthMe

Essential Setup

from AuthMe import AuthMe

db_config = {
    'dbname': 'your-db-name',
    'user': 'your-db-user',
    'password': 'your-db-password',
    'host': 'your-db-host',
    'port': 'your-db-port',
}

auth = AuthMe(db_config, "your-secret-token")

To initialize the database with the necessary tables

auth.initialize_database()

Signup User

# Below are the necessary attributes. Add more attributes, as needed by your application, but first, add those columns in the database
user_attributes = {
    'email': '[e-mail]',
    'password': 'Password1$',
    'first_name': 'John',
    'last_name': 'Doe'
}
origin_host = "localhost"
ip_address = "127.0.0.1"

auth.signup(user_attributes, origin_host, ip_address)

Response

Signup Success -

# A Python Object
namespace(code=200, token='eyJhb...Hg3TF4', message='Success')

Signup Failure -

# A Python Object
namespace(code=409, token=None, message='User already exists')

Login User

auth.login(email, password, origin_host, ip_address)

Response

Login Success -

# A Python Object
namespace(code=200, token='eyJhbGc...NAM_Gg', message='Success')

Login Failure -

# A Python Object
namespace(code=401, token=None, message='Invalid credentials')

Logout User

auth.logout(token)

Response

# A Python Object
namespace(code=200, token=None, message='Logout success')

Authenticate User

auth.authenticate(token, origin_host, ip_address)

Response

# Boolean
True || False

Current User

auth.current_user(token)

Response

# A Python Object containing all the details of user
namespace(id=1, email='[e-mail]', encrypted_password='f13...0b3', first_name='John', last_name='Doe', created_at=datetime.datetime(2024, 1, 7, 11, 45, 59, 628334), updated_at=datetime.datetime(2024, 1, 7, 11, 45, 59, 628334), reset_password_token=None, reset_password_sent_at=None, reset_password_at=datetime.datetime(2024, 1, 7, 11, 49, 40, 733419), active=True)

NOTE : Like devise, first authenticate the token, then check for current user always. authenticate method can be invoked as a dependency method, on all the protected routes (both Fast Api and Flask support Depends), and if it returns False, throw 401 error.

Generate Reset Password

auth.reset_password_token("[e-mail]")

Response

# A reset token, which can be sent out via mail or whatever seems convenient
eyJh...s4Ac

Generate Password from Reset Token

auth.reset_password(reset_token, "Password1$")

Response

# Boolean
True || False
