JWT authentication ( after the commit b06aa7a ) #167
Conversation
See the discussion here: Sorcery#70 (comment)
There is a suggestion that a message in the case not authenticated could be changeable in the discussion: Sorcery#70 (comment) But I decide to make use of a message sent from `JWT::DecodeError` because it's difficult to make the message flexible because of the design. Changes: - `#jwt_require_auth` only rescues `JWT::DecodeError` because JWT::VerificationError is a subclass. - `#jwt_decode` raises `JWT::DecodeError` or the error of the subclasses, and does not rescue in it. - `#jwt_not_authenticated` receives an argument `JWT::DecodeError` are from here: https://github.com/jwt/ruby-jwt/blob/master/lib/jwt/error.rb
`JWT::ExpiredSignature: Signature has expired` is expected when a token is expired. Review comment is: Sorcery#70 (comment)

@ebihara99999 Duplicate bcrypt dependency, likely from a merge. I would double check anything that changed on your merge commits.

@athix I'm sorry to add the wrong dependency. I've fixed it just now

If anyone in the community would like to help with this, I think JWT support would be a great addition to Sorcery. |

Do we need this flag? Is there ever a case when current_user should not be an instance of a user model?

I guess this is here by accident? :)

I think slightly more appropriate name for the method would be jwt_authenticate. Simply to stay consistent with User.authenticate.

Method should also allow users to get login failure reason, similar to what login method does.

Is trailing return call needed here?

jwt_not_authenticated is currently only called when JWT is not decoded properly. We should also handle cases when JWT is properly decoded, but the user record is missing.

| def jwt_from_header | ||
| @jwt_header_token ||= request.headers[Config.jwt_headers_key] |

I think that more sensible default here would be to expect header value in one of the following formats:Bearer <jwt-token> or Token <jwt-token>. Same as what ActionController's authentication does – https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/HttpAuthentication/Token.html
Further more, does it makes sense to allow users to define how should token be extracted from request?

Token duration should be configurable.

Closing this out to reduce noise, see #239 and Sorcery/sorcery-rework#9 for the latest on JWT in Sorcery. |
This is from #70.
There are some reviews with no response and the PR is stale for a long time (though the PR is great!!).
Thank @wilddima for implementing them firstly!!
