GoAuth

The core code for an application to manage authentication of users.

Made with GoLang, and intended to be implemented in a REST API, and Rabbit.

An implementation of GoAuth should:

  • Use only the entry points defined in "commands".
  • Define infrastructure structures using the interfaces. An example of basic infrastructure implementation is in "adapters".

Target specs:

  • A user is only composed by an identifier string and a passkey string. This application is not intended to store users personal information.
  • The manager is the entity who wants to control the user authentication (a web server, a mobile application, a company).
  • Namespaces: Each manager will have a namespace, and could have many sub namespaces, granting access to the users depending on the namespace.
  • A manager would be able to create and get information of users only in his namespace.
  • A manager will have a secret token to operate with the application. This token could be restored anytime by the manager or the application.
  • A user could login without the manager, indicating the namespace to the application, and then tell the manager the sessions token. The manager should check with the application if the session is correct.
