HubIdentityElixir

An Elixir Package designed to make implementing HubIdentity authentication easy and fast. In order to use this package you need to have an account with HubIdentity

Currently this is only for Hivelocity uses. If you have a commercial interest please contact the Package Manager Erin Boeger through linkedIn or Github or through Hivelocity.

Installation

The package can be installed by adding hub_identity_elixir to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:hub_identity_elixir, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end

Setup

Setup your configuration in config.exs, dev.exs, prod.exs etc:

config :hub_identity_elixir, :url, # Either staging, production, or localhost
config :hub_identity_elixir, :public_key, # The public key from HubIdentity

Inside your Router add use HubIdentityElixir.Phoenix.Router and include the hub_identity_routes()

in router.exs:

defmodule MyAppWeb.Router do
  use MyAppWeb, :router
  use HubIdentityElixir.Phoenix.Router # <- Add HubIdentity Router

  # router stuff..

  scope "/", MyAppWeb do
    pipe_through :browser

    hub_identity_routes()  # <- Add HubIdentity routes
    get "/", PageController, :index
  end

This will add the following routes to your application:

  • session_path DELETE /sessions/logout HubIdentityElixir.Phoenix.SessionController :delete
  • session_path GET /sessions/new HubIdentityElixir.Phoenix.SessionController :new
  • session_path GET /sessions/create HubIdentityElixir.Phoenix.SessionController :create

If you want a @current_user helper then add plug :fetch_current_user to your pipeline.

Restricted routes

For authentication required (restricted) routes add the plug require_authenticated_user for example:

scope "/", MyAppWeb do
  pipe_through [:browser, :require_authenticated_user]

  get "/something/restricted", PageController, :something
  get "/something_else/restricted", PageController, :something_else
end
