Add authorization to your web app

Example

Flask

TODO

Check out authz/test/server.py which demonstrates a simple web app.

Testing

Dependencies

Python 3.7
requests
flask
bcrypt

Using pip

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Note: before installing with pip, make sure you have bcrypt's dependencies. (see https://pypi.org/project/bcrypt/)

Using Guix

$ guix environment -m requirements.scm

Start a dev server

$ python3 -m authz.test.server

Then connect on localhost:5000.

Run the tests

The tests are in the authz.test.tests module, but you don't want to run that module directly because it requires certain environment variables to be set for both the test server & pytest module.

The test-authz script sets these environment variables, collects logs, and prints test output to your terminal. It's the most convenient way to run the tests:

$ bin/test-authz

We made an attempt at a similar PowerShell script but didn't get far. Take a look at bin/test_authz.ps1 for more info, and please if you're a PowerShell expert help us improve this script!
