Production-ready FastAPI auth system with JWT, refresh tokens, and async DB support

Project description

FastAPI Auth 🔐

Production-ready authentication system for FastAPI with async support, JWT, refresh tokens, and pluggable database backends.


🚀 Features

  • ⚡ Fully async (no blocking I/O)

  • 🔐 JWT authentication (access + refresh tokens)

  • 🔁 Refresh token flow

  • 🚪 Logout with token blacklist

  • 🧱 Multi-database support:

    • PostgreSQL (asyncpg)
    • MySQL (aiomysql)
    • SQLite (aiosqlite)
    • MongoDB (motor)
  • 🧠 Dependency-based auth (FastAPI native)

  • 📦 Plug-and-play integration

  • 🛡️ Password hashing with Argon2 (modern standard)

  • 📄 Clean OpenAPI (Swagger) docs with Pydantic schemas


📦 Installation

pip install "fastapi-async-auth-kit[<db>]"

With database support

pip install "fastapi-async-auth-kit[postgres]"
pip install "fastapi-async-auth-kit[mysql]"
pip install "fastapi-async-auth-kit[mongodb]"
pip install "fastapi-async-auth-kit[sqlite]"

⚙️ Quick Start

Step 1: How to initiate auth on startup

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi_async_auth_kit import init_auth, AuthConfig

app = FastAPI()

@app.on_event("startup")
async def startup():
    await init_auth(
        app,
        AuthConfig(
            secret_key="your-secret",
            db_url="postgresql+asyncpg://user:pass@localhost/db",
            db_type="postgres"
        )
    )

Step 2: How to validate token for all your FastAPIs

from fastapi import APIRouter, Depends
from fastapi_async_auth_kit.dependencies.auth import get_current_user
router = APIRouter()

@router.get("/user")
async def me(user=Depends(get_current_user)):
    return user

🔐 Available Endpoints
