A proxy to do http basic auth from a JWT token and redis session credentials
Little auth proxy based on hyper-reverse-proxy that can be used to add Basic auth header for a backend service without having to send credentials base64 encoded on the web.
It will use JWK token key sid field to seek for the credentials in a Redis instance.
The credentials are stored in json :
json
{ "credentials": "dXNlcjp0ZXN0" }
They can be used "as is" or the credentials can be encoded (for example with AES).
Without encoded credentials, the proxy will make a request with Authorization header :
bash
Authorization: Basic dXNlcjp0ZXN0
The main should contain a tokio main section and call the run_service function.
Example : ```rust,norun use hyperauthproxy::{runservice, ProxyConfig};
#[tokio::main] async fn main() { let (tx, rx) = tokio::sync::oneshot::channel::<()>(); let config = ProxyConfig::default(); let server = runservice(config.clone(), rx).await; println!("Running auth proxy on {:?} with backend {:?}", config.address, config.back_uri); if let Err(e) = server.await { eprintln!("server error: {}", e); } }
```
The proxy configuration contains the following parameters :
rust,no_run
use std::net::SocketAddr;
struct ProxyConfig {
pub jwt_key: String,
pub credentials_key: String,
pub back_uri: String,
pub redis_uri: String,
pub address: SocketAddr,
}
