All things related to authentication.

Getting Started​

Arrower Auth provides a email + password authentication.

note

In the future more options and pluggable backends are possible.

Accessing The User From A Web Request​


// Retrieve the currently authenticated user's ID.
userID := auth.CurrentUserID(ctx)

// Check if a user is logged in.
isLoggedIn := auth.IsLoggedIn(ctx)

// Check if a user has superuser privileges.
isSuperuser := auth.IsSuperuser(ctx)

Protecting Routes​

Arrower has a set of middlewares that regulate access to a given route.

All routes of the Admin Context are already protected.


// Protect an individual route.
router.GET("/your/protected/url", nil, auth.EnsureUserIsLoggedInMiddleware)

// Protect all routes.
adminRouter.Use(auth.EnsureUserIsSuperuserMiddleware)
