daylily-cognito 0.1.33

Shared Cognito authentication library for FastAPI + Jinja2 web apps

daylily-cognito

daylily-cognito is the shared Cognito/auth library and operational CLI for the stack. It gives service repos a common way to model pool/app context, build FastAPI auth helpers, and manage Cognito pools, clients, users, groups, and optional Google IdP configuration without each repo inventing its own wrapper.

daylily-cognito owns:

• reusable Cognito configuration objects
• shared auth helpers for FastAPI integrations
• the daycog operational CLI for pool/app/user/group flows
• Google IdP support and context/config synchronization

daylily-cognito does not own:

• a product’s session UI or page composition
• product-specific RBAC semantics
• non-Cognito identity providers beyond its supported helpers

Prerequisites

• Python 3.9+
• AWS credentials/profile for any live Cognito management
• optional auth extra for JWT verification support
• optional Google OAuth client JSON for Google IdP flows

Getting Started

Quickstart: Local Library Use

pip install -e ".[auth]"

from daylily_cognito import CognitoConfig, CognitoAuth

config = CognitoConfig(
    name="myapp",
    region="us-west-2",
    user_pool_id="us-west-2_XXXXXXXXX",
    app_client_id="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
)
config.validate()

auth = CognitoAuth(
    region=config.region,
    user_pool_id=config.user_pool_id,
    app_client_id=config.app_client_id,
)

Quickstart: CLI Workflow

source ./activate
daycog --help
daycog status

Creating or mutating pools, apps, or users is a live AWS operation. Treat daycog setup, add-app, delete-pool, and similar commands as stateful actions.

Architecture

Technology

• Python library for Cognito config/auth helpers
• Typer-based daycog CLI
• optional JWT verification helpers
• optional Google IdP integration

Core Model

The repo revolves around:

• Cognito config contexts
• user pools
• app clients
• users and groups
• environment-variable and config-file loading patterns
• optional Google OAuth IdP wiring

Runtime Shape

• library package: daylily_cognito
• CLI entrypoint: daycog
• common workflows: context/config inspection, pool/app creation, app management, user/group operations, Google IdP setup

Cost Estimates

Approximate only.

• Local-only development with mocked or existing config: near-zero direct cost.
• Live AWS use depends on Cognito usage, domains, MAU, and any external IdP posture; dev/test tends to be modest compared with a full application environment.

Development Notes

• Canonical local entry path: source ./activate
• Use daycog ... as the primary operational interface
• Prefer config contexts or namespaced environment variables over ad hoc per-app auth glue

Useful checks:

source ./activate
daycog --help
pytest -q

Sandboxing

• Safe: docs work, code reading, tests, config inspection, daycog --help, and local config-file work
• Requires extra care: any command that creates, edits, or deletes Cognito pools, apps, users, groups, or domains
