Starlette Authlib Middleware

Introduction

A drop-in replacement for Starlette session middleware, using authlib's jwt

Requirements

• Python 3.7+
• Starlette 0.9+

Installation

pip install starlette-authlib

Usage

A complete example where we drop-in replace standard session middleware:

from starlette.applications import Starlette

from starlette_authlib.middleware import AuthlibMiddleware as SessionMiddleware


app = Starlette()

app.add_middleware(SessionMiddleware, secret='secret')

Other things you can configure either via environment variables or .env file:

• DOMAIN - declare cookie domain. App must be under this domain. If empty, the cookie is restricted to the subdomain of the app (this is useful when you write eg. SSO portals)
• JWT_ALG - one of authlib JWT supported algorithms
• JWT_SECRET - jwt secret. Only useful for HS* algorithms, see the sample_app folder for middleware usage w/ crypto keys.
