🔐 nuxt-auth

nuxt-auth is a feature-packed, open-source authentication module for Nuxt 3 applications. Starting with v0.6 nuxt-auth also supports static Nuxt applications

Quick Start

npm i -D @sidebase/nuxt-auth

Then visit the Quick Start documentation to setup the module for <= v0.5 - the current stable version.

Visit the Quick Start documentation to setup the module for >= v0.6 - the "future" experimental version with support for static Nuxt 3 apps and the local provider.

Features

nuxt-auth is a library with the goal of supporting authentication for any universal Nuxt 3 application. At the moment two providers are supported:

• Auth.js / NextAuth.js to offer the reliability & convenience of a 12k star library to the nuxt 3 ecosystem with a native developer experience (DX)
• local for static pages that rely on an external backend with a credential flow for authentication. local is supported starting with v0.6 of the module

Features of the authjs-provider of nuxt-auth include:

• ✔️ Authentication providers:
  • ✔️ OAuth (e.g., Github, Google, Twitter, Azure, ...)
  • ✔️ Custom OAuth (write it yourself)
  • ✔️ Credentials (password + username)
  • ✔️ Email Magic URLs
• ✔️ Isomorphic / Universal Auth Composable useAuth supports:
  • actions: getSession, getCsrfToken, getProviders, signIn, signOut
  • getters: status, data, lastRefreshedAt
  • full typescript support for all methods and property
• ✔️ Application-side middleware protection
• ✔️ Server-side middleware and endpoint protection
• ✔️ Advanced features for session life-cycle management:
  • Refresh the session periodically
  • Refresh the session on tab-refocus
  • One time session fetch on page load, afterwards for specific actions (e.g., on navigation)
  • 🚧 Session broadcasting between tabs (see #70)
• ✔️ Persistent sessions across requests
• ✔️ REST API:
  • GET /signin,
  • POST /signin/:provider,
  • GET/POST /callback/:provider,
  • GET /signout,
  • POST /signout,
  • GET /session,
  • GET /csrf,
  • GET /providers

You can find a feature-table of all starting with v0.6 in the nuxt-auth "next"-version-docs.

Development

This project uses pnpm for development.

• Run pnpm dev:prepare to generate type stubs.
• Use pnpm dev to start the module playground in development mode.
• Run pnpm lint to run eslint
• Run pnpm typecheck to run typescheck via tsc
• Run pnpm publish --access public to publish (bump version before)

Module Playground

This module also has it's own playground:

> git clone https://github.com/sidebase/nuxt-auth

> cd nuxt-auth

# **OPEN THE `~/playground/server/api/auth/[...].ts` and configure your own auth-provider

> pnpm i

> pnpm dev:prepare

> pnpm dev

# -> open http://localhost:3000

Testing different Providers

We have one playground per provider:

• local
• authjs

How to test static Nuxt 3 apps?

To test static Nuxt 3 apps we want to run a static frontend and a separate backend that will take over authentication:

• playground-local/nuxt.config.ts: Add baseURL: 'http://localhost:3001' to the auth-config
• Start the static frontend:

  cd playground-local
  
  pnpm generate
  
  pnpm start
  

• Start the authentication backend (we use a second instance of the same nuxt3 app):

  cd playground-local
  
  pnpm dev
  
  # A seconds Nuxt app should now be running on http://localhost:3001. We use this purely for authentication
  

• Visit http://localhost:3000 -> this should open the static application. Performing any auth-related actions, the app should send requests to the backend running on port 3001
