Expand description

Request identity service for ntex applications.

IdentityService middleware can be used with different policies types to store identity information.

By default, only cookie identity policy is implemented. Other backend implementations can be added separately.

CookieIdentityPolicy uses cookies as identity storage.

To access current request identity Identity extractor should be used.

use ntex::web;
use ntex_identity::{Identity, CookieIdentityPolicy, IdentityService};

async fn index(id: Identity) -> String {
    // access request identity
    if let Some(id) = id.identity() {
        format!("Welcome! {}", id)
    } else {
        "Welcome Anonymous!".to_owned()
    }
}

async fn login(id: Identity) -> web::HttpResponse {
    id.remember("User1".to_owned()); // <- remember identity
    web::HttpResponse::Ok().finish()
}

async fn logout(id: Identity) -> web::HttpResponse {
    id.forget();                      // <- remove identity
    web::HttpResponse::Ok().finish()
}

let app = web::App::new().wrap(IdentityService::new(
    // <- create identity middleware
    CookieIdentityPolicy::new(&[0; 32])    // <- create cookie identity policy
          .name("auth-cookie")
          .secure(false)))
    .service(web::resource("/index.html").to(index))
    .service(web::resource("/login.html").to(login))
    .service(web::resource("/logout.html").to(logout));
