@innodata/nuxtjs-alt-auth

Information

This module is meant as an alternative to @nuxtjs/auth, except this is for nuxt3 only with no backwards compatibility support. This will only work with pinia, I had originally had it work with vuex, but since that is in maintenece mode, I decided to switch to pinia. If you find any bugs please do tell me, I'm still working on this.

Typescript

Please note, any issues regarding typescript is not a priorty for me. If you're having issues with it it'll be noted but not a priority, I normally have typescript disabled to focus on the functionality of the module.

Refactored (Version 2.0.0+)

The module now requires '@nuxtjs-alt/http' to function in version 2.0.0 and up, that module extends ohmyfetch. Please note that if you were using data to post data, you now need to use body since this is what ohmyfetch uses. Please tell me if you encounter any issues with these changes.

Composable

A useAuth composable is available to utitlize if $auth from useNuxtApp() isnt working out for you in terms of type hinting.

Cookie-based auth

If you have any specific changes that need to be made to accomodate cookie based-auth please tell me, at this moment the way I configured it is that it pretty much does the same thing as the official auth module cookie, but in cases where the server autmaitcally attaches the server cookie to all requests it will function conrrently (in this case setting a cookie on all requests via laravel).

the config would look like this

    auth: {
        strategies: {
            localStorage: false,
            cookie: {
                cookie: {
                    server: true, // by default this is set based on if nuxt ssr is enabled
                    name: 'token',
                },
                endpoints: {
                    csrf: false,
                    login: { 
                        url: '/api/user/login', 
                        method: 'post' 
                    },
                    user: { 
                        url: '/api/user/me', 
                        method: 'get' 
                    }
                },
                user: {
                    property: {
                        client: false,
                        server: false
                    },
                    autoFetch: true
                }
            },
        }
    }

notice the cookie.server property, this indicates that the cookie we will be looking for will be set upon login otherwise we will be looking at a client/browser cookie. the cookie scheme has been moved to its own scheme so the user property takes place within the cookie strategy and doesnt extend the token scheme from the local scheme. There has also been 2 user properties one for the client/browser and one for the server.

Laravel Sanctum

Laravel Sanctum wokrs a tiny bit differently, It inherits the same config as the Cookie scheme (see above) here's what the config would look like:

    auth: {
        strategies: {
            laravelSanctum: {
                provider: 'laravel/sanctum',
                cookie: {
                    server: true, // by default this is set based on if nuxt ssr is enabled
                    name: 'XSRF-TOKEN',
                },
                endpoints: {
                    csrf: { 
                        url: '/sanctum/csrf-cookie' 
                    },
                    login: { 
                        url: '/login' 
                    },
                    logout: { 
                        url: '/logout' 
                    },
                    user: { 
                        url: '/api/user' 
                    }
                },
                user: {
                    property: {
                        client: false,
                        server: false
                    },
                    autoFetch: true
                }
            },
        }
    }
