Keychain adds a complete and customizable user authentication system to your API project.
Update your Package.swift file.
.package(url: "https://github.com/nodes-vapor/keychain.git", from: "2.0.0")targets: [
.target(
name: "App",
dependencies: [
...
.product(name: "Keychain", package: "keychain"),
]
),
...
]These are the steps required to use Keychain in your project.
- Define a Payload that conforms to the
KeychainPayloadprotocol - Create
KeychainConfigobjects for the key types you would like to use - Configure your
Keychainusing aSignerand theKeychainConfigobjects defined in step 2 - Actually start using your
Keychain
Time to look at each step in detail.
Your payload must conform to the KeychainPayload protocol, meaning that it must contain:
init(expirationDate: Date, user: User) throwsfunc findUser(request: Request) -> EventLoopFuture<User>which is where you do a search for the user you were presented in theinitmethodfunc verify(using signer: JWTSigner) throwswhich will verify that your token is still valid
Furthermore you need to tell your KeychainPayload what its associatedtype for User translates to.
Here is an example that uses elements from a JWT token and verifies that the expiration (exp) claim is not expired. Note that findUser in this case only returns a test user. In real life you probably want to do a lookup somewhere where users are stored.
import JWT
import Keychain
import Vapor
struct UserJWTPayload: KeychainPayload {
let exp: ExpirationClaim
let sub: SubjectClaim
init(expirationDate: Date, user: User) {
self.exp = .init(value: expirationDate)
self.sub = .init(value: user.id)
}
func findUser(request: Request) -> EventLoopFuture<User> {
request.eventLoop.future(request.testUser).unwrap(or: TestError.userNotFound)
}
func verify(using signer: JWTSigner) throws {
try exp.verifyNotExpired()
}
}Your KeychainConfig objects must contain:
- an identifier (eg: access, refresh or reset):
jwkIdentifier - an
expirationTimeInterval
And you need to connect your KeychainConfig with the KeychainPayload you defined in step 1 (the KeychainConfig has a typealias for a KeychainPayload).
Here is an example creating three KeychainConfig objects:
- A
UserAccessKeychainConfigwith the identifier "access" and anexpirationTimeIntervalof 300 seconds - A
UserRefreshKeychainConfigwith the identifier "refresh" and anexpirationTimeIntervalof 600 seconds - A
UserResetKeychainConfigwith the identifier "reset" and anexpirationTimeIntervalof 400 seconds
import JWT
import Keychain
struct UserAccessKeychainConfig: KeychainConfig, Equatable {
typealias JWTPayload = UserJWTPayload
static var jwkIdentifier: JWKIdentifier = "access"
let expirationTimeInterval: TimeInterval = 300
}
struct UserRefreshKeychainConfig: KeychainConfig, Equatable {
typealias JWTPayload = UserJWTPayload
static var jwkIdentifier: JWKIdentifier = "refresh"
let expirationTimeInterval: TimeInterval = 600
}
struct UserResetKeychainConfig: KeychainConfig, Equatable {
typealias JWTPayload = UserJWTPayload
static var jwkIdentifier: JWKIdentifier = "reset"
let expirationTimeInterval: TimeInterval = 400
}Time to tie it all together! In your configure.swift you can add multiple KeychainConfig objects as seen here:
app.keychain.configure(
signer: .hs256(key: YourKeyGoesHere...ProbablyReadFromSomeEnvironment),
config: UserAccessKeychainConfig()
)
app.keychain.configure(
signer: JWTSigner(
algorithm: TestJWTAlgorithm(name: UserRefreshKeychainConfig.jwkIdentifier.string)
),
config: UserRefreshKeychainConfig()
)
app.keychain.configure(
signer: JWTSigner(
algorithm: TestJWTAlgorithm(name: UserResetKeychainConfig.jwkIdentifier.string)
),
config: UserResetKeychainConfig()
)Note the signer parameter. You can use one of the built-in signers as in the first example where we use the .hs256 signer with a key. Alternatively, you can provide your own signer as it is done in the last two examples.
With all the setup out of the way, it is time to kick back and take advantage of Keychain. You can now use the UserAccessKeychainConfig, UserRefreshKeychainConfig and UserResetKeychainConfig objects that you created previously to generate JWT tokens by calling the makeToken(on:, currentDate:)
Here is an example on how to generate a new refreshToken.
import Keychain
struct UserController {
let currentDate: () -> Date
...
func refreshToken(request: Request) throws -> Response {
let token = try UserRefreshKeychainConfig.makeToken(on: request, currentDate: currentDate())
// here we encode the token string as JSON but you might include your token in a struct
// conforming to `Content`
let response = Response()
try response.content.encode(token, as: .json)
return response
}
