Example project to do role based access control (RBAC) using Spring Boot and JWT

Role Based Access Control (RBAC) with Spring Boot and JWT

This repo hosts the source code for the article Role Based Access Control (RBAC) with Spring Boot and JWT.

This example project demonstrates how to use the Spring Boot's inbuilt OAuth2 Resoure Server to authenticate and authorize REST APIs with JWT. First, we have enabled JWT authentication and secondly, have introduced Role Based Access Control (RBAC) by mapping a roles claim in JWT to granted authorities in Spring Security.

Furthermore, provides a "/login" endpoint to generate and issue JWTs upon successful login by the users.

This approach is ideal to be used as the backend for a single page application (SPA) written using a frontend framework like ReactJS, Angular, etc...
