Dash Cognito Auth

Dash Cognito Auth is a simple library using Cognito OAuth to authenticate and view a Dash app.

This Library uses Flask Dance and a modified version of Plotly's own dash auth for authentication.

This Library is heavily inspired by dash-google-oauth created by Lucas Chapin

Basic Use

Authentication can be added to your Dash application using the CognitoOAuth class, i.e.

from dash import Dash
from flask import Flask
from dash_cognito_auth import CognitoOAuth

server = Flask(__name__)
server.config.update({
  'COGNITO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID': ...,
  'COGNITO_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET': ...,
})

app = Dash(__name__, server=server, url_base_pathname='/', auth='auth')

additional_scopes = [...]
auth = CognitoOAuth(app, domain='mydomain', region='eu-west-1', authorized_emails, additional_scopes)

# your Dash app here :)
...

Example

Steps to try this out yourself:

Install the dash-cognito-auth library using pip:
```
$ pip install dash-cognito-auth
```
Follow the Flask Dance Guide to create an app on the cognito admin console
Make a copy of app.py and set the variables (or set the corresponding environment variables):
```
server.config["COGNITO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID"] = ...
server.config["COGNITO_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET"] = ...
```
with values from the Cognito OAuth 2 client you should have set up in step 1. If you've set these up properly, you can find them at APIs & Services > Credentials under the section OAuth 2.0 client IDs.
Run python app.py and open localhost in a browser window to try it out! If the app loads automatically without prompting a Cognito login, that means you're already authenticated -- try using an incognito window in this case if you want to see the login experience for a new user.
