About The Project

Sanic Security is an authentication, authorization, and verification library designed for use with Sanic. This library contains a variety of features including:

• Login, registration, and authentication
• Two-step verification
• Two-factor authentication
• Captcha
• Wildcard and role based authorization

This repository has been starred by Sanic's core maintainer:

Please visit security.sunsetdeveloper.com for documentation.

Getting Started

In order to get started, please install pip.

Prerequisites

• pip

sudo apt-get install python3-pip

Installation

• Install the Sanic Security pip package.

pip3 install sanic-security

Configuration

Sanic Security configuration is merely an object that can be modified either using dot-notation or like a dictionary.

For example:

from sanic_security.configuration import config

config.SECRET = "This is a big secret. Shhhhh"
config["CAPTCHA_FONT"] = "./resources/captcha.ttf"

You can also use the update() method like on regular dictionaries.

• Default configuration values:

Key	Value
SECRET	This is a big secret. Shhhhh
CACHE	./security-cache
SESSION_SAMESITE	strict
SESSION_SECURE	False
SESSION_HTTPONLY	True
SESSION_DOMAIN	None
SESSION_EXPIRES_ON_CLIENT	False
SESSION_PREFIX	token
SESSION_ENCODING_ALGORITHM	HS256
CAPTCHA_SESSION_EXPIRATION	60
CAPTCHA_FONT	captcha.ttf
TWO_STEP_SESSION_EXPIRATION	200
AUTHENTICATION_SESSION_EXPIRATION	2692000

Usage

Sanic Security implementation is easy.

The tables in the below examples represent example request form-data.

    await email_code(two_step_session.code) #Custom method for emailing verification code.
    response = json("Login successful! A second factor is now required to be authenticated.", authentication_session.account.json())
    authentication_session.encode(response)
    two_step_session.encode(response)
    return response

• Second Factor

  response = json("Second factor attempt successful! You may now be authenticated!",
                  authentication_session.account.json())
  return response

• Logout

@app.post("api/auth/logout")
@requires_authentication()
async def on_logout(request, authentication_session):
    await logout(authentication_session)
    response = json("Logout successful!", authentication_session.account.json())
    return response

• Requires Authentication

    return json(f"Hello {authentication_session.account.username}! You have been authenticated.", 
                authentication_session.account.json())

Captcha

You must download a .ttf font for captcha challenges and define the file's path in the configuration.

Recommended Font

Captcha challenge example:

• Request Captcha

@app.post("api/captcha/request")
async def on_request_captcha(request):
    captcha_session = await request_captcha(request)
    response = await captcha_session.get_image()
    captcha_session.encode(response)
    return response

• Requires Captcha

captcha	Aj8HgD

@app.post("api/captcha")
@requires_captcha()
async def on_captcha_attempt(request, captcha_session):
    return json("Captcha attempt successful!", captcha_session.json())

Two-step Verification

• Request Two-step Verification

Key	Value
email	[e-mail]
captcha	Aj8HgD

@app.post("api/verification/request")
@requires_captcha()
async def on_request_verification(request, captcha_session):
    two_step_session = await request_two_step_verification(request)

async def on_verification(request, two_step_session):
    response = json("Two-step verification attempt successful!", two_step_session.account.json())
    return response

Authorization

Sanic Security comes with two protocols for authorization: role based and wildcard based permissions.

Role-based permissions is a policy-neutral access-control mechanism defined around roles and privileges.

Wildcard permissions support the concept of multiple levels or parts. For example, you could grant a user the permission printer:query, printer:query,delete, and/or printer:*.

• Require Permissions

@app.post("api/auth/perms")
@require_permissions("admin:update", "employee:add")
async def on_require_perms(request, authentication_session):
    return text("Account permitted.")

• Require Roles

@app.post("api/auth/roles")
@require_roles("Admin", "Moderator")
async def on_require_roles(request, authentication_session):
    return text("Account permitted.")

Testing

• Install httpx:

pip3 install httpx

• Make sure the test Sanic instance (test/server.py) is running on your machine.

• Run the unit test client (test/unit.py) and wait for results.

Tortoise

Sanic Security uses Tortoise ORM for database operations.

Tortoise ORM is an easy-to-use asyncio ORM (Object Relational Mapper).

• Initialise your models and database like so:

async def init():
    # Here we create a SQLite DB using file "db.sqlite3"
    # also specify the app name of "models"
    # which contain models from "app.models"
    await Tortoise.init(
        db_url='sqlite://db.sqlite3',
        modules={'models': ['sanic_security.models', 'app.models']}
    )
    # Generate the schema
    await Tortoise.generate_schemas()

or

from tortoise.contrib.sanic import register_tortoise

register_tortoise(
    app, db_url="sqlite://:memory:", modules={"models": ["app.models", "sanic_security. models"]}, generate_schemas=True
)

• Define your models like so:

from tortoise.models import Model
from tortoise import fields

class Tournament(Model):
    id = fields.IntField(pk=True)
    name = fields.TextField()

• Use it like so:

# Create instance by save
tournament = Tournament(name='New Tournament')
await tournament.save()

# Or by .create()
await Tournament.create(name='Another Tournament')

# Now search for a record
tour = await Tournament.filter(name__contains='Another').first()
print(tour.name)
