Authentication and Authorization Server for Microservices Architecture

Overview

This project is research work that focuses on enterprise-scale identity management for Microservices inspired by Google Applications Authentication Strategies

The solution is implemented with the Rust programming language a memory-safe systems programming language for building fast and secure applications. The application also integrates with the PostgreSQL database which is optimized for fast read and write database operations.

Requirement

The following are required to run the application in development.

Rust v1.63 or greater
PostgreSQL PostgreSQL server v14.5 or greater
sqlx for interacting with the database,
sqlx-cli, a command line tool for sqlx,
cargo watch, a tool for watching the project files and recompiling when they change,

Installation (development)

To run the application in development mode, follow the steps below

clone Repository
copy and populate .env.example to .env cp .env.example .env, paying attention to the SECRET and DATABASE_URL variables
Run sqlx database create to create the database from the specified DATABASE_URL Use SQL database drop to revert the change
