authhttp

auth/http

auth/http adapts auth.Service to chi routes, bearer middleware, cookies, and JSON responses. Import path: github.com/Ithildur/EiluneKit/auth/http; package name: authhttp.

Quick Start

manager, err := authjwt.New(signingKey, authstore.NewMemoryStore())
if err != nil {
	return err
}

authHandler, err := authhttp.NewHandler(manager, authhttp.Options{
	LoginAuthenticator: authhttp.LoginAuthenticatorFunc(func(ctx context.Context, username, password string) (string, bool, error) {
		user, err := repo.FindByUsername(ctx, username)
		if err != nil {
			return "", false, err
		}
		if user == nil {
			return "", false, nil
		}

		computedHash := hashPassword(password, user.Salt)
		if !authhttp.VerifyCredential(user.PasswordHash, computedHash) {
			return "", false, nil
		}
		return user.ID, true, nil
	}),
})
if err != nil {
	return err
}

if err := authHandler.Register(r); err != nil {
	return err
}

POST /auth/login accepts username, password, and a required persistence field with persistent or session. LoginAuthenticator verifies the credentials; the handler returns an access token and sets refresh/CSRF cookies with matching persistence.

Static Credential

For a fixed shared secret:

staticAuth, err := authhttp.NewStaticPasswordAuthenticator("dashboard-admin", adminPassword)
if err != nil {
	return err
}

authHandler, err := authhttp.NewHandler(manager, authhttp.Options{
	LoginAuthenticator: staticAuth,
})
if err != nil {
	return err
}

if err := authhttp.ValidateStaticPasswordVisibleASCII(adminPassword); err != nil {
	return err
}

Bearer Middleware

bearer, err := authhttp.RequireBearer(manager)
if err != nil {
	return err
}
r.Use(bearer)

RequireBearer accepts any BearerAuthenticator. jwt.Manager satisfies it. Use MustRequireBearer only when you intentionally want constructor-style panic behavior.

Routes

Default base path: /auth.

Handler.Routes() returns the same route set as declarative http/routes.Route values. When mounting them manually, pass routes.WithAuth(authHandler.AuthResolver()). Omitting that resolver is a mount-time error for protected routes.

err := routes.Mount(r, "", authHandler.Routes(), routes.WithAuth(authHandler.AuthResolver()))

Options

• LoginAuthenticator: required credential verification entrypoint
• BasePath: auth route prefix relative to the current router mount; default /auth
• RefreshCookiePath: browser-visible refresh-cookie path; default BasePath
• CSRFCookiePath: CSRF cookie path; default /
• RefreshCookieName, CSRFCookieName, CSRFHeaderName: cookie and header names
• TrustedProxies: forwarded-header trust boundary for rate limiting and secure-cookie detection
• MaxBodyBytes: request body size limit for auth endpoints
• RateLimit: login rate-limit settings

Forwarded headers are trusted only when TrustedProxies is set. The default rate-limit key uses RemoteAddr.

Contracts

• NewHandler requires both a TokenManager and Options.LoginAuthenticator.
• NewStaticPasswordAuthenticator requires a non-empty user ID and password.
• VerifyCredential performs exact byte comparison and is suitable for pre-hashed or application-derived credentials.
