Bkend Auth

bkend-auth

bkend.ai authentication and security expert skill

1. Auth Overview

bkend.ai uses JWT-based authentication with a dual-token strategy:

Supported Authentication Methods

1. Email/Password -- traditional signup and login
2. Magic Link -- passwordless email-based login
3. Social Login (OAuth) -- Google, GitHub
4. API Key -- server-to-server (tenant-level, not user-level)

Required Headers

All auth endpoints require these headers:

X-Project-Id: <your-project-id>
X-Environment: <dev|staging|prod>
Content-Type: application/json

Authenticated endpoints additionally require:

Authorization: Bearer <access-token>

Auth Response Structure

2.3 Email Verification

Send verification email:

POST /auth/email/verify/resend

{
  "email": "user@example.com"
}

Verify email with token:

POST /auth/email/verify

{
  "token": "ev_abc123def456..."
}

Response (200 OK):

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "message": "Email verified successfully",
    "emailVerified": true
  }
}

3. Magic Link Authentication

Magic link provides passwordless authentication via email.

3.1 Send Magic Link

Endpoint: POST /auth/magiclink/send

Request:

{
  "email": "user@example.com",
  "redirectUri": "https://myapp.com/auth/callback"
}

Response (200 OK):

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "message": "Magic link sent to user@example.com",
    "expiresIn": 600
  }
}

The user receives an email with a link like:

https://api-client.bkend.ai/auth/magiclink/verify?token=ml_abc123...&redirectUri=https://myapp.com/auth/callback

3.2 Verify Magic Link

Endpoint: GET /auth/magiclink/verify?token=<token>&redirectUri=<uri>

The server verifies the token and redirects to redirectUri with tokens as query parameters:

https://myapp.com/auth/callback?accessToken=eyJ...&refreshToken=rt_...&expiresIn=3600

Client-side handling:

// app/auth/callback/page.tsx
"use client";

import { useSearchParams, useRouter } from "next/navigation";
import { useEffect } from "react";

export default function AuthCallback() {
  const searchParams = useSearchParams();
  const router = useRouter();

  useEffect(() => {
    const accessToken = searchParams.get("accessToken");
    const refreshToken = searchParams.get("refreshToken");

    if (accessToken && refreshToken) {
      // Store tokens securely
      document.cookie = `bkend_access_token=${accessToken}; path=/; secure; samesite=lax; max-age=3600`;
      document.cookie = `bkend_refresh_token=${refreshToken}; path=/; secure; samesite=lax; max-age=2592000`;
      router.push("/dashboard");
    } else {
      router.push("/login?error=invalid_magic_link");
    }
  }, [searchParams, router]);

  return <div>Authenticating...</div>;
}

Error Responses:

4. Social Login (OAuth)

4.1 Google OAuth

Console Configuration:

1. Go to Console > Project > Settings > Auth > Social Login
2. Enable Google provider
3. Enter your Google Client ID and Client Secret
4. Set authorized redirect URI: https://api-client.bkend.ai/auth/social/google/callback

Initiate Google Login:

GET /auth/social/google?redirectUri=https://myapp.com/auth/callback

The server redirects the user to Google's OAuth consent screen. After authorization, the user is redirected back to your redirectUri with tokens:

https://myapp.com/auth/callback?accessToken=eyJ...&refreshToken=rt_...&expiresIn=3600

bkendFetch Example (redirect):

function handleGoogleLogin() {
  const projectId = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_PROJECT_ID;
  const env = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_ENVIRONMENT;
  const redirectUri = encodeURIComponent(`${window.location.origin}/auth/callback`);

  window.location.href =
    `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_API_URL}/auth/social/google` +
    `?redirectUri=${redirectUri}` +
    `&projectId=${projectId}` +
    `&environment=${env}`;
}

4.2 GitHub OAuth

Console Configuration:

1. Go to Console > Project > Settings > Auth > Social Login
2. Enable GitHub provider
3. Enter your GitHub Client ID and Client Secret
4. Set authorization callback URL: https://api-client.bkend.ai/auth/social/github/callback

Initiate GitHub Login:

GET /auth/social/github?redirectUri=https://myapp.com/auth/callback

The flow is identical to Google. The user is redirected to GitHub for authorization, then back to your app with tokens.

Error Responses (Social Login):

5. Token Management

5.1 Refresh Token

Endpoint: POST /auth/token/refresh

Request:

{
  "refreshToken": "rt_a1b2c3d4e5f6..."
}

Response (200 OK):

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIs...",
    "refreshToken": "rt_newtoken123...",
    "expiresIn": 3600
  }
}

Error Responses:

5.2 Token Storage Patterns

Recommended: httpOnly Cookie (Server-rendered apps)

// API route: app/api/auth/login/route.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from "next/server";
import { bkendFetch } from "@/lib/bkend";

export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
  const body = await request.json();

  const result = await bkendFetch("/auth/email/signin", {
    method: "POST",
    body: JSON.stringify(body),
  });

  const response = NextResponse.json({ user: result.data.user });

  response.cookies.set("bkend_access_token", result.data.tokens.accessToken, {
    httpOnly: true,
    secure: true,
    sameSite: "lax",
    path: "/",
    maxAge: 3600, // 1 hour
  });

  response.cookies.set("bkend_refresh_token", result.data.tokens.refreshToken, {
    httpOnly: true,
    secure: true,
    sameSite: "lax",
    path: "/",
    maxAge: 2592000, // 30 days
  });

  return response;
}

Alternative: Memory + localStorage (SPA)

// lib/auth-store.ts
class AuthStore {
  private accessToken: string | null = null;

  setTokens(accessToken: string, refreshToken: string) {
    this.accessToken = accessToken;
    localStorage.setItem("bkend_refresh_token", refreshToken);
  }

  getAccessToken(): string | null {
    return this.accessToken;
  }

  getRefreshToken(): string | null {
    return localStorage.getItem("bkend_refresh_token");
  }

  clearTokens() {
    this.accessToken = null;
    localStorage.removeItem("bkend_refresh_token");
  }
}

export const authStore = new AuthStore();

5.3 Auto-refresh Pattern (Next.js Middleware)

// middleware.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from "next/server";

const PUBLIC_PATHS = ["/login", "/signup", "/", "/auth/callback"];

export async function middleware(request: NextRequest) {
  const { pathname } = request.nextUrl;

  if (PUBLIC_PATHS.some((p) => pathname.startsWith(p))) {
    return NextResponse.next();
  }

  const accessToken = request.cookies.get("bkend_access_token")?.value;
  const refreshToken = request.cookies.get("bkend_refresh_token")?.value;

  // No tokens at all -- redirect to login
  if (!accessToken && !refreshToken) {
    return NextResponse.redirect(new URL("/login", request.url));
  }

  // Access token exists -- proceed
  if (accessToken) {
    return NextResponse.next();
  }

  // Access token expired, refresh token exists -- auto-refresh
  try {
    const res = await fetch(
      `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_API_URL}/auth/token/refresh`,
      {
        method: "POST",
        headers: {
          "Content-Type": "application/json",
          "X-Project-Id": process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_PROJECT_ID!,
          "X-Environment": process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_ENVIRONMENT!,
        },
        body: JSON.stringify({ refreshToken }),
      }
    );

    if (!res.ok) {
      throw new Error("Refresh failed");
    }

    const data = await res.json();
    const response = NextResponse.next();

    response.cookies.set("bkend_access_token", data.data.accessToken, {
      httpOnly: true,
      secure: true,
      sameSite: "lax",
      path: "/",
      maxAge: 3600,
    });

    if (data.data.refreshToken) {
      response.cookies.set("bkend_refresh_token", data.data.refreshToken, {
        httpOnly: true,
        secure: true,
        sameSite: "lax",
        path: "/",
        maxAge: 2592000,
      });
    }

    return response;
  } catch {
    const response = NextResponse.redirect(new URL("/login", request.url));
    response.cookies.delete("bkend_access_token");
    response.cookies.delete("bkend_refresh_token");
    return response;
  }
}

export const config = {
  matcher: ["/((?!_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico|api).*)"],
};

12. Auth Form Patterns (React / Next.js)

12.1 LoginForm Component

// components/auth/LoginForm.tsx
"use client";

import { useState, FormEvent } from "react";
import { useRouter } from "next/navigation";
import { useAuth } from "@/hooks/useAuth";

export function LoginForm() {
  const [email, setEmail] = useState("");
  const [password, setPassword] = useState("");
  const [error, setError] = useState<string | null>(null);
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
  const router = useRouter();
  const { login } = useAuth();

  async function handleSubmit(e: FormEvent) {
    e.preventDefault();
    setError(null);
    setLoading(true);

    try {
      await login(email, password);
      router.push("/dashboard");
    } catch (err: any) {
      setError(err.message || "Login failed");
    } finally {
      setLoading(false);
    }
  }

  function handleSocialLogin(provider: "google" | "github") {
    const baseUrl = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_API_URL;
    const projectId = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_PROJECT_ID;
