simple_oauth2

Simple implementation of OAuth2 protocol inspired by book OAuth 2 in Action (Justin Richer (Author), Antonio Sanso).

The code was completely rewritten in C++, using MongoDB as the NoSQL database. HTML templates remained almost unchanged.

Description

There are three parts that interact with each other: the client (abstract application), the authentication server and protected resource. The client redirects the user to the authentication server to gain access to the resource The user decides whether to grant access permission to client and to what extent(scope). Next comes gaining access(receiving a token) and the ability to request data from the resource.

All three parts in different docker containers.

Run application

Run with Cmake

For example for client:

cd client
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
./client 

You need to export envs from .cmake.env

Run with docker compose

In infra path execute

docker compose --env-file .env -f docker-compose.yml up -d

There is image in docker hub for each part. If you want to build localy you can use generic Dockerfile in the infra path.

Next you need to go to the http://localhost:9000 endpoint in the browser.
