reflex-local-auth 0.0.1

Reflex custom component local-auth

local-auth

Easy access to local authentication in your Reflex app.

Installation

pip install reflex-local-auth

Usage

import reflex_local_auth

Add the canned login and registration pages

If you don't want to create your own login and registration forms, add the canned pages to your app:

app = rx.App()
...
app.add_page(
    reflex_local_auth.pages.login_page,
    route=reflex_local_auth.routes.LOGIN_ROUTE,
    title="Login",
)
app.add_page(
    reflex_local_auth.pages.register_page,
    route=reflex_local_auth.routes.REGISTER_ROUTE,
    title="Register",
)

Create Database Tables

reflex db init  # if needed
reflex db makemigrations
reflex db migrate

Redirect Pages to Login

Use the @reflex_local_auth.require_login decorator to redirect unauthenticated users to the LOGIN_ROUTE.

@rx.page()
@reflex_local_auth.require_login
def need2login(request):
    return rx.heading("Accessing this page will redirect to the login page if not authenticated.")

Although this seems to protect the content, it is still publicly accessible when viewing the source code for the page! This should be considered a mechanism to redirect users to the login page, NOT a way to protect data.

Protect State

It is extremely important to protect private data returned by State via Event Handlers! All static page data should be considered public, the only data that can truly be considered private at runtime must be fetched by an event handler that checks the authenticated user and assigns the data to a State Var. After the user logs out, the private data should be cleared and the user's tab should be closed to destroy the session identifier.

import reflex_local_auth


class ProtectedState(reflex_local_auth.LocalAuthState):
    data: str

    def on_load(self):
        if not self.is_authenticated:
            return reflex_local_auth.LoginState.redir
        self.data = f"This is truly private data for {self.authenticated_user.username}"

    def do_logout(self):
        self.data = ""
        return reflex_local_auth.LocalAuthState.do_logout


@rx.page(on_load=ProtectedState.on_load)
@reflex_local_auth.require_login
def protected_page():
    return rx.heading(ProtectedState.data)

Customization

The basic reflex_local_auth.User model provides password hashing and verification, and an enabled flag. Additional functionality can be added by creating a new UserInfo model and creating a foreign key relationship to the user.id field.

import sqlmodel
import reflex as rx
import reflex_local_auth


class UserInfo(rx.Model, table=True):
    email: str
    is_admin: bool = False
    created_from_ip: str

    user_id: int = sqlmodel.Field(foreign_key="user.id")

To populate the extra fields, you can create a custom registration page and state that asks for the extra info, or it can be added via other event handlers.

A custom registration state and form might look like:

import reflex as rx
import reflex_local_auth
from reflex_local_auth.pages.components import input_100w, MIN_WIDTH, PADDING_TOP


class MyRegisterState(reflex_local_auth.RegistrationState):
    # This event handler must be named something besides `handle_registration`!!!
    def handle_registration_email(self, form_data):
        registration_result = super().handle_registration(form_data)
        if self.new_user_id >= 0:
            with rx.session() as session:
                session.add(
                    UserInfo(
                        email=form_data["email"],
                        created_from_ip=self.router.headers.get(
                            "x_forwarded_for",
                            self.router.session.client_ip,
                        ),
                        user_id=self.new_user_id,
                    )
                )
                session.commit()
        return registration_result


def register_error() -> rx.Component:
    """Render the registration error message."""
    return rx.cond(
        reflex_local_auth.RegistrationState.error_message != "",
        rx.callout(
            reflex_local_auth.RegistrationState.error_message,
            icon="alert_triangle",
            color_scheme="red",
            role="alert",
            width="100%",
        ),
    )


def register_form() -> rx.Component:
    """Render the registration form."""
    return rx.form(
        rx.vstack(
            rx.heading("Create an account", size="7"),
            register_error(),
            rx.text("Username"),
            input_100w("username"),
            rx.text("Email"),
            input_100w("email"),
            rx.text("Password"),
            input_100w("password", type="password"),
            rx.text("Confirm Password"),
            input_100w("confirm_password", type="password"),
            rx.button("Sign up", width="100%"),
            rx.center(
                rx.link("Login", on_click=lambda: rx.redirect(reflex_local_auth.routes.LOGIN_ROUTE)),
                width="100%",
            ),
            min_width=MIN_WIDTH,
        ),
        on_submit=MyRegisterState.handle_registration_email,
    )


def register_page() -> rx.Component:
    """Render the registration page.

    Returns:
        A reflex component.
    """

    return rx.center(
        rx.cond(
            reflex_local_auth.RegistrationState.success,
            rx.vstack(
                rx.text("Registration successful!"),
            ),
            rx.card(register_form()),
        ),
        padding_top=PADDING_TOP,
    )

Finally you can create a substate of reflex_local_auth.LocalAuthState which fetches the associated UserInfo record and makes it available to your app.

import sqlmodel
import reflex as rx
import reflex_local_auth


class MyLocalAuthState(reflex_local_auth.LocalAuthState):
    @rx.cached_var
    def authenticated_user_info(self) -> UserInfo | None:
        if self.authenticated_user.id < 0:
            return
        with rx.session() as session:
            return session.exec(
                sqlmodel.select(UserInfo).where(
                    UserInfo.user_id == self.authenticated_user.id
                ),
            ).one_or_none()


@rx.page()
@reflex_local_auth.require_login
def user_info():
    return rx.vstack(
        rx.text(f"Username: {MyLocalAuthState.authenticated_user.username}"),
        rx.cond(
            MyLocalAuthState.authenticated_user_info,
            rx.fragment(
                rx.text(f"Email: {MyLocalAuthState.authenticated_user_info.email}"),
                rx.text(f"Account Created From: {MyLocalAuthState.authenticated_user_info.created_from_ip}"),
            ),
        ),
    )
