pebbleauthclient 0.1.1

Pebble client tool for authenticate user and licence management written in Python

Pebble Authentication Client for NodeJS

Introduction

This library offer a client for authenticate user and licence management written in Python compatible with may python API Server.

Installation

Requirements

The following procedures explains the installation of the following packages :

• Python 3.9 or higher
• pip (provided with Python package)
• PyJWT (tested with version 2.8.0)
• cryptography (tested with version 41.0.5)

Solution 1 : requirement.txt configuration

The best way to ensure that the correct version of all modules are correctly installed for your project is to use a requirement.txt file :

cryptography==41.0.5
PyJWT==2.8.0

Then run the following on your project :

pip install -r requirements.txt

Solution 2 : Local installation

Check python3 is properly installed on your local machine (with pip working), then run the following in the application directory.

pip install cryptography PyJWT

Solution 3 : Dockerfile configuration

Add the following in your Dockerfile after the initialization of docker image and the implementation of Python3 in the docker container :

RUN pip install cryptography PyJWT

Dockerfile example

WARNING : This is an example in order to explain when you have to run the pip install command. Your own Dockerfile should vary from this configuration.

# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1.2
FROM ubuntu:20.04
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y python3.9 python3.9-dev
RUN pip install cryptography PyJWT
COPY . .
CMD ["python"]

Usage

Configuration

Before you can work with the library, you must define to a system environment variable the URI were is stored the public Json Web Key Set (JWKS file).

This file will be requested and store temporary on your API Server. Your server should be able to write on ./var/credentials/auth/jwks.json . If the file does not exist, it will be created.

If you start your server directly from a terminal, run this command on your terminal before starting your server :

export PBL_JWKS_REMOTE_URI=https://SERVER_URI/path/jwks.json

If you start your server within a Docker container, you should add this line to your Dockefile :

RUN export PBL_JWKS_REMOTE_URI=https://SERVER_URI/path/jwks.json

Test keys pair

Warn : These key files are not secured and must be used FOR TESTING PURPOSE ONLY on a local development environment !

JWKS URI (for PBL_JWKS_REMOTE_URI environment variable)

Authenticate with HTTP Authorization header

This might work only if an Authorization header has been sent in the current client request. Authorization header must start with Bearer string followed by a valid JWT.
