PumpWood Django Auth

Create basic Pumpwood end-points for authentication and service mesh using Kong. It integrates with pumpwood-communication and pumpwood-djangoviews .

Pumpwood is a native Brazilian tree which has a symbiotic relation with ants (Murabei)

Environment variables

The config module centralizes singletons used across Pumpwood Auth. Network and disk clients are wrapped in LazyProxy and created on first use. When running gunicorn with --preload, call reset_config_singletons() from a post_fork hook so workers do not reuse master-process connections.

Kong integration

• API_GATEWAY_URL: Kong admin API host. Required to register services and routes through KongService and KongRoute models.

Pumpwood microservice integration

• MICROSERVICE_NAME: microservice object name, used for debug purposes.
• MICROSERVICE_URL: full path of the Pumpwood API Gateway or service mesh.
• MICROSERVICE_USERNAME: username used for service-to-service login.
• MICROSERVICE_PASSWORD: password used for service-to-service login.

Service users flagged with UserProfile.is_service_user cannot log in from outside the application cluster.

Pumpwood storage integration

• STORAGE_TYPE: storage back-end [google_bucket, aws_s3, azure_storage].
• STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME: name of the bucket, blob or S3 to be used.
• STORAGE_BASE_PATH: base path when saving files. Defaults to pumpwood_auth.
• MEDIA_URL: media base URL for Kong routes. Defaults to media/.

Pumpwood storage cloud configuration

Depending on the storage back-end, credentials and other information must be provided.

• aws_s3
  • AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: access key for the service user to access S3.
  • AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: secret key for the service user to access S3.
• azure_storage
  • AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING: connection string for the storage account.
• google_bucket
  • GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS: path to Google application credentials.

RabbitMQ logging

• RABBITMQ_USERNAME, RABBITMQ_PASSWORD, RABBITMQ_HOST, RABBITMQ_PORT: credentials and host for RabbitMQ log delivery.
• PUMPWOOD_AUTH_IS_RABBITMQ_LOG [TRUE, FALSE]: send authentication logs to RabbitMQ (TRUE) or stdout (FALSE). When TRUE but RabbitMQ credentials are missing, logs fall back to stdout.

All calls with the X-PUMPWOOD-Ingress-Request header (set by an NGINX termination container) whose user is not a service user are sent to the auth__api_request_log queue.

Cache expiration

• PUMPWOOD_AUTH__I8N_CACHE_EXPIRATION: i18n cache TTL in seconds. Default 300.
• PUMPWOOD_AUTH__TOKEN_CACHE_EXPIRATION: permission token cache TTL. Default 300.
• PUMPWOOD_AUTH__ROW_PERMISSION_CACHE_EXPIRATION: row permission cache TTL. Default 300.

Quick start

Add Pumpwood Auth apps to settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # Admin APPs
    'flat_json_widget',
    'pumpwood_djangoviews',

    # Django apps
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'django_extensions',

    # MFA Admin
    'rest_framework',
    'knox',

    # Django Pumpwood Auth Models
    'pumpwood_djangoauth',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.i8n',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.mfaadmin',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.registration',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.system',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.groups',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.row_permission',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.api_permission',
]

Add request logging middleware (login must be the last middleware call):

MIDDLEWARE = [
    'corsheaders.middleware.CorsMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
    'pumpwood_djangoauth.log.middleware.RequestLogMiddleware',
]

Configure REST framework and Knox:

REST_FRAMEWORK = {
    'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': (
        'rest_framework.permissions.IsAuthenticated',
    ),
    'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': (
        'knox.auth.TokenAuthentication',
    ),
    'EXCEPTION_HANDLER': (
        'pumpwood_djangoviews.exception_handler.custom_exception_handler'
    )
}

Add routes to urls.py. You can include each app separately or use the consolidated entry point:

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^health-check/pumpwood-auth-app/',
        lambda r: JsonResponse(True, safe=False)),
    url(r'^rest/', include('pumpwood_djangoauth.urls')),
]

Gunicorn preload

When using gunicorn with --preload, reset lazy singletons after fork:

def post_fork(server, worker):
    from pumpwood_djangoauth.config import reset_config_singletons
    reset_config_singletons()

Permission codes

Groups, row permissions and API permission policies expose a code field for stable identification across environments and integrations.

• PumpwoodUserGroup.code: required, unique identifier for a permission group.
• PumpwoodRowPermission.code: optional, unique identifier for a row permission tag.
• PumpwoodPermissionPolicy.code: optional, unique identifier for an API permission policy.
• PumpwoodPermissionPolicyAction.code: optional, unique identifier for a policy action.

Codes are available on REST serializers and can be used when linking policies programmatically instead of relying on database primary keys.

Registering end-points

Use register_auth_kong_objects to register services and routes at Kong. For the default auth layout, get_service_definitions from pumpwood_djangoauth.service_registration returns ready-made service and route dictionaries.

from pumpwood_djangoauth.kong.create_routes import register_auth_kong_objects
from pumpwood_djangoauth.service_registration import get_service_definitions
from pumpwood_djangoauth.system.views import (
    RestKongRoute, RestKongService)
from pumpwood_djangoauth.registration.views import RestUser

service_url = os.environ.get("SERVICE_URL")

register_auth_kong_objects(
    service_url=service_url,
    service_name="people-and-cats-main",
    healthcheck_route="/health-check/pumpwood-auth-app/",
    service_description="Main auth application",
    service_notes="Main app.",
    service_dimensions={
        "microservice": "pumpwood-auth-app",
        "type": "core",
        "function": "authentication"},
    service_icon=None,
    service_extra_info={},
    routes=[{
        "route_url": "/rest/registration/",
        "route_name": "api--registration",
        "route_type": "aux",
        "description": "Registration",
        "notes": (
            "End-point for login, logout and other Authentication "
            "functions"),
        "dimensions": {
            "microservice": "pumpwood-auth-app",
            "service_type": "core",
            "function": "authentication",
            "endpoint": "registration",
            "route_type": "aux"},
        "icon": "",
        "extra_info": {}
