Example app using authproxy

This is an example of using the authproxy with a fake provider and calling the API through a command line client.

Getting started

Generate tls certificates

As authproxy works with tls ecnryption only, fake certificates must be generated. Please execute the following bashscript to generate a CA, server and client certificate.

export SAN=DNS.1:localhost

# generate ca, client and server certs + keys
./gencerts.sh

You will find the files ca.crt, ca.key, server.crt, server.key, client.crt, client.key in this directory as an output from the script

Start the api

We can now use the certificates to start the api first.

./api/api --tls-key server.key --tls-cert server.crt --tls-ca-cert ca.crt --log-level debug

On another terminal you can query the api using the cli client tool.

login unsuccessful: username: foo, password: fail

./client/cli --tls-key client.key --tls-cert client.crt --tls-ca-cert ca.crt login foo fail
> failed to run api: unauthorized: invalid authentication credentials%  

login successful: username: foo, password: bar

./client/cli --tls-key client.key --tls-cert client.crt --tls-ca-cert ca.crt login foo bar
> Received token for user: AbCdEf123456

authenticate the token

./client/cli --tls-key client.key --tls-cert client.crt --tls-ca-cert ca.crt authenticate AbCdEf123456
client successfully authenticated, token is valid
