Planet Auth Utility Library

Overview

The Planet Auth Library provides generic authentication utilities for clients and services. For clients, it provides the means to obtain access tokens that can be used to access network services. For services, it provides tools to validate the same access tokens.

The architecture of the code was driven by OAuth2, but is intended to be easily extensible to new authentication protocols in the future. Since clients and resource servers are both themselves clients to authorization servers in an OAuth2 deployment, this combining of client and server concerns in a single library was seen as natural.

Currently, this library supports OAuth2, Planet's legacy proprietary authentication protocols, and static API keys.

This library does not make any assumptions about the specific environment in which it is operating, leaving that for higher level applications to configure.

The Planet SDK for Python leverages this library, and is pre-configured for the Planet Insights Platform used by customers.
