Module oxide_auth::primitives

A collection of primites useful for more than one authorization method.

A primitive is the smallest independent unit of policy used in OAuth related endpoints. For example, an authorizer generates and verifies Authorization Codes. There only is, as you might have noticed, only the OAuth2 code grant method. But abstracting away the underlying primitives makes it possible to provide –e.g.– a independent database based implementation.

These should be used to build or instantiate an Endpoint, for example Generic or your own.

use oxide_auth::frontends::simple::endpoint::Generic;
use oxide_auth::primitives::{
    authorizer::AuthMap,
    generator::RandomGenerator,
    issuer::TokenMap,
    registrar::ClientMap,
};

Generic {
    authorizer: AuthMap::new(RandomGenerator::new(16)),
    registrar: ClientMap::new(),
    issuer: TokenMap::new(RandomGenerator::new(16)),
    // ...
};

Modules

• authorizer
  Authorizers are need to exchange code grants for bearer tokens.
• generator
  Generators produce string code grant and bearer tokens for a determined grant.
• grant
  Encapsulates various shared mechanisms for handlings different grants.
• issuer
  Generates bearer tokens and refresh tokens.
• prelude
  Commonly used primitives for frontends and backends.
• registrar
  Registrars administer a database of known clients.
• scope
  Defines the Scope type and parsing/formatting according to the rfc.
