axum-login

🪪 Session-based user authentication for Axum.

🎨 Overview

axum-login is a Tower middleware providing session-based user authentication for axum applications.

• Decouples user storage from authentication
• Supports arbitrary user types and arbitrary storage backends
• Provides methods for: logging in, logging out, and accessing current user
• Wraps axum-sessions to provide flexible sessions
• Leverages tower_http::auth::RequireAuthorizationLayer to protect routes

Note axum-login implements a fundamental pattern for user authentication, however some features may be missing. Folks are encouraged to make suggestions for extensions to the library.

📦 Install

To use the crate in your project, add the following to your Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
axum-login = "0.2.0"

🤸 Usage

axum applications can use the middleware via the auth layer.

axum Example

use axum::{response::IntoResponse, routing::get, Extension, Router};
use axum_login::{
    axum_sessions::{async_session::MemoryStore, SessionLayer},
    AuthLayer, AuthUser, RequireAuthorizationLayer, SqliteStore,
};
use rand::Rng;
use sqlx::sqlite::SqlitePoolOptions;

#[derive(Debug, Default, Clone, sqlx::FromRow)]
struct User {
    id: i64,
    password_hash: String,
    name: String,
}

impl AuthUser for User {
    fn get_id(&self) -> String {
        format!("{}", self.id)
    }

    fn get_password_hash(&self) -> String {
        self.password_hash.clone()
    }
}

type AuthContext = axum_login::extractors::AuthContext<User, SqliteStore<User>>;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let secret = rand::thread_rng().gen::<[u8; 64]>();

    let session_store = MemoryStore::new();
    let session_layer = SessionLayer::new(session_store, &secret).with_secure(false);

    let pool = SqlitePoolOptions::new()
        .connect("user_store.db")
        .await
        .unwrap();

    let user_store = SqliteStore::<User>::new(pool);
    let auth_layer = AuthLayer::new(user_store, &secret);

    async fn login_handler(mut auth: AuthContext) {
        let pool = SqlitePoolOptions::new()
            .connect("user_store.db")
            .await
            .unwrap();
        let mut conn = pool.acquire().await.unwrap();
        let user: User = sqlx::query_as("select * from users where id = 1")
            .fetch_one(&mut conn)
            .await
            .unwrap();
        auth.login(&user).await.unwrap();
    }

    async fn logout_handler(mut auth: AuthContext) {
        dbg!("Logging out user: {}", &auth.current_user);
        auth.logout().await;
    }

    async fn protected_handler(Extension(user): Extension<User>) -> impl IntoResponse {
        format!("Logged in as: {}", user.name)
    }

    let app = Router::new()
        .route("/protected", get(protected_handler))
        .route_layer(RequireAuthorizationLayer::<User>::login())
        .route("/login", get(login_handler))
        .route("/logout", get(logout_handler))
        .layer(auth_layer)
        .layer(session_layer);

    axum::Server::bind(&"0.0.0.0:3000".parse().unwrap())
        .serve(app.into_make_service())
        .await
        .unwrap();
}
