Authsum is a simple authentication package written in PHP which allows to create simple and extensible authentication logic.

Installation

Install the Authsum package via Composer:

$ composer require rougin/authsum

Basic usage

Prior in using Authsum, a data source must be defined first (e.g., BasicSource):

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Source\BasicSource;

// ...

$username = 'admin';
$password = /** ... */;

// Check if the provided username and password data ---
// matched from the given payload (e.g., $_POST) ------
$source = new BasicSource($username, $password);
// ----------------------------------------------------

// ...

Once the source is defined, use the Authsum class to perform the validation logic:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Authsum;

// ...

$auth = new Authsum($source);

if ($auth->isValid($_POST))
{
    /** @var \Acme\Models\User */
    $user = $auth->getResult()->getField('user');

    echo 'Welcome ' . $user->getName() . '!';
}
else
{
    echo 'Invalid credentials!';
}

Customization

Authsum also provides simple extensibility utilities to be able to fit in from various use-cases.

Pass or fail from Authsum

The Authsum class can also be extended to provide methods if the validation logic passed or failed:

namespace Acme;

use Acme\Depots\AuditDepot;
use Acme\Errors\NoAccount;
use Rougin\Authsum\Authsum;
use Rougin\Authsum\Error;
use Rougin\Authsum\Result;

class TestAuth extends Authsum
{
    protected $audit;

    public function __construct(AuditDepot $audit)
    {
        $this->audit = $audit;
    }

    /**
     * Executes if the validation failed.
     *
     * @param \Rougin\Authsum\Error $error
     *
     * @return void
     */
    protected function failed(Error $error)
    {
        throw new NoAccount($error->getText());
    }

    /**
     * Executes if the validation passed.
     *
     * @param \Rougin\Authsum\Result $data
     *
     * @return void
     */
    protected function passed(Result $data)
    {
        /** @var string */
        $user = $data->getField('name');

        $this->audit->userLoggedIn($user);
    }
}

Alternatively, the Authsum class can also get the error or the result after validation using getError() and getResult() respectively:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Authsum;

// ...

$auth = new Authsum($source);

if ($auth->isValid($_POST))
{
    $result = $auth->getResult();

    /** @var string */
    $name = $result->getField('name');

    echo 'Welcome ' . $name . '!';
}
else
{
    $error = $auth->getError();

    echo 'Error: ' . $auth->getText();
}

Note

An UnexpectedValueException will be thrown if trying to access an empty output (e.g., trying to access getResult() after the failed validation).

Changing fields to check

By default, the Authsum class can check the email as its username and password for the password from the payload (e.g., $_POST). If this is not the case, kindly update the specified fields using setUsernameField or setPasswordField:

// index.php

// ...

$auth->setUsernameField('username');
$auth->setPasswordField('password');

// ...

Note

The specified fields will be used by the Authsum class if they are required by the specified source (e.g., BasicSource, PdoSource).

Using sources

Sources in Authsum are PHP classes that provide user data. They can be used for checking the specified username and password fields against its data source:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Authsum;
use Rougin\Authsum\Source\BasicSource;

// ...

// Initialize the source... --------------------
$username = 'admin';
$password = /** ... */;

$source = new BasicSource($username, $password);
// ---------------------------------------------

// ...then pass it to Authsum ---
$auth = new Authsum($source);
// ------------------------------

// The source will be used to check if ---
// the provided payload matches in the ---
// given payload ($_POST) from its source
$valid = $auth->isValid($_POST);
// ---------------------------------------

// ...

PdoSource

Besides from BasicSource, another available source that can be used is PdoSource which uses PDO to interact with a database:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Source\PdoSource;

// ...

// Create a PDO instance... --------------
$dsn = 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=demo';

$pdo = new PDO($dsn, 'root', /** ... */);
// ---------------------------------------

// ...then pass it to the PdoSource ---
$source = new PdoSource($pdo);
// ------------------------------------

// ...

The setTableName method can also be used to specify its database table name:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Source\PdoSource;

// ...

$source = new PdoSource($pdo);

$source->setTableName('users');

// ...

Note

If the setTableName is not specified, it always refer to the users table.

When using PdoSource, the value in the password field will be assumed as a hash (e.g., $2y$10...). If this is not the case, kindly add the withoutHash method:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Source\PdoSource;

// ...

$source = new PdoSource($pdo);

$source->withoutHash();

// ...

Doing this will make a strict comparison of the provided password against the result from the database.

JwtSource

The JwtSource class is a special class that checks a user's authentication using JSON Web Token:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Source\JwtSource;

// ...

/** @var \Rougin\Authsum\Source\JwtParserInterface */
$parser = /** ... */;

$source = new JwtSource($parser);

From the example above, initializing JwtSource requires a JwtParserInterface for parsing the JSON web tokens from payload:

namespace Rougin\Authsum\Source;

interface JwtParserInterface
{
    /**
     * Parses the token string.
     *
     * @param string $token
     *
     * @return array<string, mixed>
     */
    public function parse($token);
}

If JwtSource is used as a source, the token field must be updated also from the Authsum class based on the query parameter or parsed body where the token exists:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Authsum;
use Rougin\Authsum\Source\JwtSource;

// ...

$source = new JwtSource($parser);

// Search "token" property from the payload ---
$source->setTokenField('token');
// --------------------------------------------

$auth = new Authsum($source);

Note

If setTokenField is not specified, its default value is token.

Then use the setUsernameField to specify the field to be compared against the parsed data from the JSON web token:

// index.php

use Rougin\Authsum\Authsum;

// ...

$auth = new Authsum($source);

// ...

$auth->setUsernameField('email');

// The $_POST data should contains the ---
// "token" field and the "email" field ---
$valid = $auth->isValid($_POST);
// ---------------------------------------

Creating custom sources

To create a custom source, kindly use the SourceInterface for its implementation:

namespace Rougin\Authsum\Source;

interface SourceInterface
{
    /**
     * Returns the error after validation.
     *
     * @return \Rougin\Authsum\Error
     */
    public function getError();

    /**
     * Returns the result after validation.
     *
     * @return \Rougin\Authsum\Result
     */
    public function getResult();

    /**
     * Checks if it exists from the source.
     *
     * @return boolean
     */
    public function isValid();
}

If the custom source requires an username field, kindly add the WithUsername interface:

namespace Rougin\Authsum\Source;

interface WithUsername
{
    /**
     * Sets the username field.
     *
     * @param string $username
     *
     * @return self
     */
    public function setUsernameField($username);

    /**
     * Sets the username.
     *
     * @param string $username
     *
     * @return self
     */
    public function setUsernameValue($username);
}

The WithPassword interface can be also added if the custom source requires a password to be defined:

namespace Rougin\Authsum\Source;

interface WithPassword
{
    /**
     * Sets the password field.
     *
     * @param string $password
     *
     * @return self
     */
    public function setPasswordField($password);

    /**
     * Sets the password value.
     *
     * @param string $password
     *
     * @return self
     */
    public function setPasswordValue($password);
}

Some custom sources may require to use the provided payload instead of username and password fields (e.g., JwtSource). With this, kindly use the WithPayload interface:

namespace Rougin\Authsum\Source;

interface WithPayload
{
    /**
     * Sets the prepared payload.
     *
     * @param array<string, string> $payload
     *
     * @return self
     */
    public function setPayload($payload);
}

Testing

If there is a need to check the source code of Authsum for development purposes (e.g., creating fixes, new features, etc.), kindly clone this repository first to a local machine:

$ git clone https://github.com/rougin/authsum.git "Sample"

After cloning, use Composer to install its required packages:

$ cd Sample
$ composer update

Note

Please see also the build.yml of Authsum to check any packages that needs to be installed based on the PHP version.

Once the required packages were installed, kindly check the following below on how to maintain the code quality and styling guide when interacting the source code of Authsum:

Unit tests

Authsum also contains unit tests that were written in PHPUnit:

$ composer test

When creating fixes or implementing new features, it is recommended to run the above command to always check if the updated code introduces errors during development.

Code quality

To retain the code quality of Authsum, a static code analysis code tool named PHPStan is being used during development. To start, kindly install the specified package in the global environment of Composer:

$ composer global require phpstan/phpstan --dev

Once installed, PHPStan can now be run using its namesake command:

$ cd Sample
$ phpstan

Note

When running phpstan, it will use the phpstan.neon file which is already provided by Authsum.

Coding style

Aside from code quality, Authsum also uses a tool named PHP Coding Standards Fixer for maintaining an opinionated style guide. To use this tooling, it needs also to be installed in the Composer's global environment first:

$ composer global require friendsofphp/php-cs-fixer --dev

After its installation, kindly use the php-cs-fixer command in the same Authsum directory:

$ cd Sample
$ php-cs-fixer fix --config=phpstyle.php

The phpstyle.php file provided by Authsum currently follows the PSR-12 standard as its baseline for the coding style and uses Allman as its indentation style.

Note

Installing both PHPStan and PHP Coding Standards Fixer requires a minimum version of PHP at least 7.4.
