Walkthrough

The changes introduce comprehensive updates to the authentication mechanisms, particularly focusing on JWT (JSON Web Token) support. Enhancements include modifications to the documentation, code functions, and integration tests, ensuring secure server-side authentication, improved handling of different token types, and expanded test coverage for various authentication scenarios.

README.md Updated authentication documentation emphasizing secure handling of ABLY_KEY and JWT usage.
ably/auth.go Modified requestAuthURL to handle both "text/plain" and "application/jwt" MIME types.
ably/auth_integration_test.go Added new test cases for JWT retrieval, authentication via URL, callback usage, and error handling.
ably/realtime_conn_spec_integration_test.go Implemented test for reauthorizing with JWT tokens, validating connection state transitions.
ablytest/sandbox.go Introduced CREATE_JWT_URL, GetJwtAuthParams, and CreateJwt methods for JWT generation.

Poem

In the meadow, I hop with glee,
JWTs are here, oh what a spree! 🐇✨
Secure and safe, our tokens dance,
With Ably's magic, we take a chance.
Authentication's bright, a joyful song,
In this new world, we all belong! 🌼

329-346: The code segment looks good, but consider improving the surrounding text.

The code segment provides a useful example of initializing ably.NewREST using ABLY_KEY and creating a token request endpoint using a Gin server. However, as discussed in the past review comments, it would be better to link to the relevant sections of the official Ably documentation instead of repeating the information in the README.

Consider updating the surrounding text to something like:

ably-go is typically used in a server-side environment where it is recommended to use an API key for authentication (for further details on why, see Available authentication mechanisms).

ably-go can be used to issue tokens to clients as outlined in the Ably Tokens documentation.

348-349: LGTM!

The information provided about setting the content type header when using WithAuthURL client option for JWT tokens is correct and useful.


350-367: LGTM!

The code segment provides a useful example of using WithAuthCallback client option to fetch a token from a server and decode it based on the response. The implementation looks correct.

The code segment provides a useful example of using WithAuthCallback client option to fetch a JWT token from a server. The implementation looks correct.

    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
    • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.

331-381: Enhanced Authentication Documentation Review.

The updated sections from lines 331 to 381 provide a comprehensive overview of using ABLY_KEY for server-side applications and detail the process for token authentication, including JWT handling. These changes align well with the PR's objectives to enhance JWT support and improve security documentation.

  • The use of ABLY_KEY is clearly discouraged for client-side applications, which is a crucial security best practice.
  • The examples provided for token generation and handling JWT tokens are practical and enhance the usability of the documentation.

Overall, these updates significantly improve the clarity and security of the authentication process in the README, ensuring that developers have a clear guide on implementing authentication securely.
