Authen Authentication Crate

authen is a robust and secure authentication library for Rust, designed to provide all the essential building blocks for modern authentication systems.

Features

• User Management: Create, update, and manage user accounts with flexible persistence options.
• Password Hashing: Secure password storage using industry-standard algorithms (e.g., Argon2).
• Token Management: JWT-based access and refresh token generation, validation, and rotation.
• Session Handling: Tools for managing user sessions securely.
• Policy Enforcement: Password and authentication policy enforcement.
• Pluggable Backends: Support for in-memory and PostgreSQL backends (enable with postgres feature).
• Web Integration: Axum-based web server integration (enable with web feature).

Optional Features

• postgres: Enables PostgreSQL-backed persistence.
• web: Enables Axum web server integration for HTTP APIs.

Example

use authen::{AuthService, AuthenUser};
// ...

Modules

• auth_service: High-level authentication service API.
• core: Core primitives (users, credentials, hashing, tokens, etc.).
• error: Error types for authentication operations.
