Framework to handle authentication and authorization.

Project description

Build pypi versions license codecov

Authentication and authorization framework for Python apps

Basic framework to handle authentication and authorization in asynchronous Python applications.

Features:

  • strategy to implement authentication (who or what is using a service?)
  • strategy to implement authorization (is the acting identity authorized to do a certain action?)
  • support for dependency injection for classes handling authentication and authorization requirements
  • built-in support for JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) authentication

This library is freely inspired by authorization in ASP.NET Core; although its implementation is extremely different.

Installation

pip install neoteroi-auth

To install with support for JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) validation:

pip install neoteroi-auth[jwt]

Examples

For examples, refer to the examples folder.

If you have doubts about authentication vs authorization...

Authentication answers the question: Who is the user who is initiating the action?, or more in general: Who is the user, or what is the service, that is initiating the action?.

Authorization answers the question: Is the user, or service, authorized to do something?.

Usually, to implement authorization, is necessary to have the context of the entity that is executing the action.

Usage in BlackSheep

neoteroi-auth is used in the second version of the BlackSheep web framework, to implement authentication and authorization strategies for request handlers.
