Spring Boot service which REST API secured by JWT

An example of Spring Boot application for securing a REST API with JSON Web Token (JWT)

Main building blocks

• Spring Boot 2.2.5.RELEASE go to http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/2.2.5.RELEASE/reference/htmlsingle/ to learn more about spring boot
• JSON Web Token go to https://jwt.io/ to decode your generated token and learn more
• H2 Database Engine - used for rapid prototyping and development, but not suitable for production at least in most cases. Go to www.h2database.com to learn more

Prerequisites:

• Maven 3
• JDK 17

How to build:

./gradlew build

How to build Docker image with oauth-service application inside:

cd oauth-server
docker build ./ -t oauth-service-app
cd..

How to build Docker image with oauth-service application inside:

cd resource-server
docker build ./ -t resource-service-app
cd..

To run the application

java -jar ./oauth-server/build/libs/oauth-server-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
java -jar ./resource-server/build/libs/resource-server-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

Or import the project into your IDE and run AuthServerApplication & ResourceServerApplication from there.

Or use docker compose:

docker-compose up

To test the application

First you will need the following basic pieces of information:

• client: testjwtclientid
• secret: XY7kmzoNzl100
• Non-admin username and password: john.doe and jwtpass
• Admin user: admin.admin and jwtpass
• Example of resource accessible to all authenticated users: http://localhost:9091/foo/123 (any number here)
• Example of resource accessible to only an admin user: http://localhost:9091/cities

Generate access token

Use the following generic command to generate an access token:

curl -X POST client:secret@localhost:9090/oauth/token -d grant_type=password -d username=user -d password=pwd

For this specific application, to generate an access token for the non-admin user john.doe, run:

curl -X POST testjwtclientid:XY7kmzoNzl100@localhost:9090/oauth/token -d grant_type=password -d username=john.doe -d password=jwtpass
curl -X POST testjwtclientid:XY7kmzoNzl100@localhost:9090/oauth/token -d grant_type=password -d username=admin.admin -d password=jwtpass

You'll receive responses similar to below

{
    "access_token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJhdWQiOlsidGVzdGp3dHJlc291cmNlaWQiXSwidXNlcl9uYW1lIjoiYWRtaW4uYWRtaW4iLCJzY29wZSI6WyJyZWFkIiwid3JpdGUiLCJmb28iXSwiZXhwIjoxNTgzODY4MjkwLCJhdXRob3JpdGllcyI6WyJTVEFOREFSRF9VU0VSIiwiQURNSU5fVVNFUiJdLCJqdGkiOiIzYzdmYmM3Ni1mM2VhLTRkYTAtYmRlOC1jYTFlNWY0MzYxMzUiLCJjbGllbnRfaWQiOiJ0ZXN0and0Y2xpZW50aWQifQ.ki0W0_jLX4RqhnqTIdBg1j14yfJOyeipHH9W_7d-WTA",

}

Check existing token

To check existing token use:

curl -X POST client:secret@localhost:9090/oauth/check_token?token=TOKEN_HERE

You'll receive a response similar to below

{
    "aud": ["testjwtresourceid"],
    "user_name": "admin.admin",
    "scope": ["read", "write", "foo"],
    "exp": 1583866486,
    "authorities": ["STANDARD_USER", "ADMIN_USER"],
    "jti": "6b4ebc1b-ea20-4f5a-a0a4-280f48ce41cc",
    "client_id": "testjwtclientid"
}

or next

{
    "error": "invalid_token",
    "error_description": "Encoded token is a refresh token"
}

Get new token pair using refresh token

To get new token pair using existing refresh token use:

curl -X POST -d refresh_token=REFRESH_TOKEN_HERE -d grant_type=refresh_token client:secret@localhost:9090/oauth/token

You'll receive a response similar to below

Use tokens to access resources through your RESTful API

Access content available for all authenticated users:

Use the generated tokens as the value of the Bearer in the Authorization header as follows:

curl http://localhost:9091/foos/1 -H "Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE"

The response will be:

{
    "id": 68,
    "name": "rRun"
}

Access content available only for an admin user:

curl http://localhost:9091/cities -H "Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE"

The result will be:

[{
        "id": 1,
        "name": "Bamako"
    }, {
        "id": 2,
        "name": "Nonkon"
    }, {
        "id": 3,
        "name": "Houston"
    }, {
        "id": 4,
        "name": "Toronto"
    }, {
        "id": 5,
        "name": "New York City"
    }, {
        "id": 6,
        "name": "Mopti"
    }, {
        "id": 7,
        "name": "Koulikoro"
    }, {
        "id": 8,
        "name": "Moscow"
    }
]
