Add Auth Endpoint

add-auth-endpoint

This skill covers the implementation of authentication routes.

Trigger: When setting up auth-related endpoints in the backend.

Quick Reference

Critical Patterns (Summary)

• Login User: Handles user login via GitHub OAuth.
• Validate Token: Validates JWT tokens for authenticated requests.

Critical Patterns (Detailed)

Login User

Handles user login via GitHub OAuth, redirecting to the callback after authentication.

from fastapi import APIRouter
from apps.server.app.routes.auth import login

router = APIRouter()

@router.get("/login")
async def github_login():
    return await login()

Validate Token

Validates JWT tokens to ensure the user is authenticated for protected routes.

from fastapi import Depends
from apps.server.app.routes.auth import validate_token

async def get_current_user(token: str = Depends(validate_token)):
    return token

When to Use

• When implementing user authentication in a FastAPI application.
• When securing routes that require user validation.

Commands

docker-compose up
python apps/server/app/main.py

Anti-Patterns

Don't: Hardcode Secrets

Hardcoding secrets like JWT keys is insecure and should be avoided.

# BAD
JWT_SECRET = "mysecretkey"
