Types

type AuthHandler

type AuthHandler interface {
	// Init initializes the handler taking config string and logical name as parameters.
	Init(jsonconf json.RawMessage, name string) error

	// AddRecord adds persistent authentication record to the database.
	// Returns: updated auth record, error
	AddRecord(rec *Rec, secret []byte) (*Rec, error)

	// UpdateRecord updates existing record with new credentials.
	// Returns updated auth record, error.
	UpdateRecord(rec *Rec, secret []byte) (*Rec, error)

	// Authenticate: given a user-provided authentication secret (such as "login:password"), either
	// return user's record (ID, time when the secret expires, etc), or issue a challenge to
	// continue the authentication process to the next step, or return an error code.
	// store.Users.GetAuthRecord("scheme", "unique")
	// Returns: user auth record, challenge, error.
	Authenticate(secret []byte) (*Rec, []byte, error)

	// IsUnique verifies if the provided secret can be considered unique by the auth scheme
	// E.g. if login is unique.
	IsUnique(secret []byte) (bool, error)

	// GenSecret generates a new secret, if appropriate.
	GenSecret(rec *Rec) ([]byte, time.Time, error)

	// DelRecords deletes (or disables) all authentication records for the given user.
	DelRecords(uid types.Uid) error

	// RestrictedTags returns the tag namespaces which are restricted by this authenticator.
	RestrictedTags() ([]string, error)

	// GetResetParams returns authenticator parameters passed to password reset handler
	// for the provided user id.
	// Returns: map of params.
	GetResetParams(uid types.Uid) (map[string]interface{}, error)
}

AuthHandler is the interface which auth providers must implement.

type Feature

type Feature uint16

Feature is a bitmap of authenticated features, such as validated/not validated.

const (
	// FeatureValidated bit is set if user's credentials are already validated.
	FeatureValidated Feature = 1 << iota
	// FeatureNoLogin is set if the token should not be used to permanently authenticate a session.
	FeatureNoLogin
)

func (Feature) MarshalJSON

func (f Feature) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON converts AccessMode to a quoted string.

func (Feature) MarshalText

func (f Feature) MarshalText() ([]byte, error)

MarshalText converts AccessMode to ASCII byte slice.

func (Feature) String

func (f Feature) String() string

String returns string representation of Feature.

func (*Feature) UnmarshalJSON

func (f *Feature) UnmarshalJSON(b []byte) error

UnmarshalJSON reads AccessMode from a quoted string.

func (*Feature) UnmarshalText

func (f *Feature) UnmarshalText(b []byte) error

UnmarshalText parses access mode string as byte slice. Does not change the mode if the string is empty or invalid.

type Level

type Level int

Level is the type for authentication levels.

const (
	// LevelNone is undefined/not authenticated
	LevelNone Level = iota * 10
	// LevelAnon is anonymous user/light authentication
	LevelAnon
	// LevelAuth is fully authenticated user
	LevelAuth
	// LevelRoot is a superuser (currently unused)
	LevelRoot
)

Authentication levels

func ParseAuthLevel

func ParseAuthLevel(name string) Level

ParseAuthLevel parses authentication level from a string.

func (Level) MarshalJSON

func (a Level) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON converts Level to a quoted string.

func (Level) MarshalText

func (a Level) MarshalText() ([]byte, error)

MarshalText converts Level to a slice of bytes with the name of the level.

func (Level) String

func (a Level) String() string

String implements Stringer interface: gets human-readable name for a numeric authentication level.

func (*Level) UnmarshalJSON

func (a *Level) UnmarshalJSON(b []byte) error

UnmarshalJSON reads Level from a quoted string.

func (*Level) UnmarshalText

func (a *Level) UnmarshalText(b []byte) error

UnmarshalText parses authentication level from a string.

type Rec

type Rec struct {
	// User ID
	Uid types.Uid `json:"uid,omitempty"`
	// Authentication level
	AuthLevel Level `json:"authlvl,omitempty"`
	// Lifetime of this record
	Lifetime time.Duration `json:"lifetime,omitempty"`
	// Bitmap of features. Currently 'validated'/'not validated' only.
	Features Feature `json:"features,omitempty"`
	// Tags generated by this authentication record.
	Tags []string `json:"tags,omitempty"`
	// User account state received or read by the authenticator.
	State types.ObjState

	// Authenticator may request the server to create a new account.
	// These are the account parameters which can be used for creating the account.
	DefAcs  *types.DefaultAccess `json:"defacs,omitempty"`
	Public  interface{}          `json:"public,omitempty"`
	Private interface{}          `json:"private,omitempty"`
}

Rec is an authentication record.
