Auth0 and Java

Auth0 is a cloud service that provides a turn-key solution for authentication, authorization and Single Sign On.

You can use Auth0 to add username/password authentication, support for enterprise identity like Active Directory or SAML and also for social identities like Google, Facebook or Salesforce among others to your web, API and mobile native apps.

Learn how to use it

Please read this tutorial to learn how to use this SDK. It's exremely simple

Extensibility points

Auth0 Servlet Callback

protected void onSuccess(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)

Here you can configure what to do after successful authentication. By default, it redirects to the URL configured in the web.xml

protected void onFailure(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp, Exception ex)

Here you can configure what to do after failure authentication. By default, it redirects to the URL configured in the web.xml

protected void store(Tokens tokens, Auth0User user, HttpServletRequest req

Here you can configure where to store the Tokens and the User. By default, they're stored in the Session in the tokens and user fields

Auth0 Filter

protected Tokens loadTokens(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse resp)

You can specify where to get the tokens from. If you changed where they're saved in the Callback, then you should change it here. Now, they're saved in the tokens field of the Session

protected Auth0User loadUser(ServletRequest req)

You can specify where to get the User from. If you changed where they're saved in the Callback, then you should change it here. Now, they're saved in the user field of the Session

protected void onSuccess(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse resp, FilterChain next, Auth0User user)

By default, on success we wrap the Request with the Auth0Request so that we change the UserPrincipal to be a Auth0User. You can of course change that here.

protected void onReject(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse resp, FilterChain next, Auth0User user)

By default, on we redirect to the URL configured in the web.xml. You can override this and change that.
