Library to Provide a User Authentication and privilege Token Checks. It requires the Axum_Session library. This library will help by making it so User ID or authorizations are not stored on the Client side but rather on the Server side. The Authorization is linked by the Clients Serverside Session ID which is stored on the Client side. Formally known as Axum Sessions Auth

• Wraps axum_session for data management serverside.
• Right Management API
• Auto load of user Data upon Page loads.
• User Data cache to Avoid Repeated Database calls when not needed.

Install

Sessions Authentication uses tokio runtime and ['axum_session'];

# Cargo.toml
[dependencies]
# Postgres + rustls
axum_session_auth = { version = "0.8.0", features = [ "postgres-rustls" ] }

Cargo Feature Flags

default: [postgres-rustls]

advanced: Enable functions allowing more direct control over the sessions.

rest_mode: Disables Cookie Handlering In place of Header only usage for Rest API Requests and Responses.

key-store: Enabled the optional key storage. Will increase ram usage based on Fastbloom settings.

sqlite-rustls: Sqlx support for the self-contained SQLite database engine and rustls.

sqlite-native: Sqlx support for the self-contained SQLite database engine and native-tls.

postgres-rustls: Sqlx support for the Postgres database server and rustls.

postgres-native: Sqlx support for the Postgres database server and native-tls.

mysql-rustls: Sqlx support for the MySQL/MariaDB database server and rustls.

mysql-native: Sqlx support for the MySQL/MariaDB database server and native-tls.

redis-db: redis_pool 0.2.1 session support. Enables Redis Client Pool

redis-clusterdb: redis_pool 0.2.0 session support. Enabled Redis ClusterClient Pool.

surrealdb-rocksdb: 1.0.0 support for rocksdb.

surrealdb-tikv : 1.0.0 support for tikv.

surrealdb-fdb-?_? : 1.0.0 support for fdb versions 6_1, 6_2, 6_3, 7_0, 7_1. Replace ?_? with version.

surrealdb-mem : 1.0.0 support for mem.

mongo : mongodb 2.6.1 support for mongo.
