daylily-auth-cognito

daylily-auth-cognito is the standalone Cognito auth repo for Daylily. It publishes the daylily_auth_cognito Python package and the daycog CLI.

The 2.0 line is a breaking refactor with hard boundaries:

• runtime/: JWT verification and FastAPI bearer auth
• browser/: Hosted UI session auth with token-free session storage
• admin/: Cognito pool, app-client, user, password, and federation mutations
• cli/: daycog wiring only
• policy/: email-domain policy helpers

Install

pip install daylily-auth-cognito

For development in this repo:

source ./activate
pytest -q

activate installs the editable repo and the published cli-core-yo==2.1.1 dependency.

Public API

The top-level package is intentionally small:

from daylily_auth_cognito import (
    CognitoTokenVerifier,
    CognitoWebSessionConfig,
    JWKSCache,
    SessionPrincipal,
    clear_session_principal,
    complete_cognito_callback,
    configure_session_middleware,
    create_auth_dependency,
    load_session_principal,
    start_cognito_login,
    store_session_principal,
    verify_m2m_token_with_jwks,
)

Use submodules directly for admin and CLI-specific work. CLI config handling lives under daylily_auth_cognito.cli.config and is CLI-only.

Runtime Example

from daylily_auth_cognito import CognitoTokenVerifier, create_auth_dependency

verifier = CognitoTokenVerifier(
    region="us-west-2",
    user_pool_id="us-west-2_example",
    app_client_id="client-123",
)

current_principal = create_auth_dependency(verifier)

Browser Session Example

from daylily_auth_cognito import CognitoWebSessionConfig, configure_session_middleware

config = CognitoWebSessionConfig(
    domain="auth.example.test",
    client_id="client-123",
    redirect_uri="https://app.example.test/auth/callback",
    logout_uri="https://app.example.test/logout",
    session_secret_key="replace-me",
    session_cookie_name="app_session",
    public_base_url="https://app.example.test",
    server_instance_id="server-1",
)

configure_session_middleware(app, config)

Hosted UI callbacks exchange the authorization code asynchronously in the web path and only persist normalized principal data in the session. Raw OAuth tokens are rejected.

Set CognitoWebSessionConfig.identity_provider="Google" to select Google explicitly at the Cognito authorize endpoint. The app client must separately restrict its supported providers and password authentication flows. A callback principal resolver can use CognitoTokenVerifier.verify_id_token(token) to require the pool signature/issuer, exact client audience, ID token use, subject and expiry. This method always verifies the signature.

CLI

Activate the repo, then use daycog:

source ./activate
daycog --help
daycog status
daycog auth-config print
daycog setup --help

CLI config remains at ~/.config/daycog/config.yaml.

daycog add-app and daycog edit-app accept --explicit-auth-flows as a nonempty comma-separated list. A Google-only OAuth client uses --idp Google --oauth-flows code --generate-secret --explicit-auth-flows ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH; restricting displayed providers alone does not disable SDK password authentication. Existing defaults remain unchanged when the explicit-auth-flows option is omitted.

The flat-file config model is implemented in daylily_auth_cognito.cli.config; its internal config helper is not part of the runtime surface.
