from httpx_auth import OktaImplicitIdToken

To avoid asking for a new token every new request, a token cache is used.
Default cache is in memory but it is also possible to use a physical cache.
You need to provide the location of your token cache file. It can be a full or relative path.
If the file already exists it will be used, if the file do not exists it will be created.
from httpx_auth import OAuth2, JsonTokenFileCache
OAuth2.token_cache = JsonTokenFileCache('path/to/my_token_cache.json')
Amazon Web Service Signature version 4 is implemented following Amazon S3 documentation and request-aws4auth.
Use httpx_auth.AWS4Auth
to configure this kind of authentication.
import httpx
from httpx_auth import AWS4Auth
aws = AWS4Auth(access_id="my-access-id", secret_key="my-secret-key", region="eu-west-1", service="s3")
with httpx.Client() as client:
client.get('http://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com', auth=aws)
Name | Description | Mandatory | Default value |
---|---|---|---|
access_id |
AWS access ID. | Mandatory | |
secret_key |
AWS secret access key. | Mandatory | |
region |
The region you are connecting to, as per this list. For services which do not require a region (e.g. IAM), use us-east-1. | Mandatory | |
service |
The name of the service you are connecting to, as per this list. e.g. elasticbeanstalk. | Mandatory | |
security_token |
Used for the x-amz-security-token header, for use with STS temporary credentials. |
Optional |
You can send an API key inside the header of your request using httpx_auth.HeaderApiKey
.
import httpx
from httpx_auth import HeaderApiKey
with httpx.Client() as client:
client.get('https://www.example.com', auth=HeaderApiKey('my_api_key'))
Name | Description | Mandatory | Default value |
---|---|---|---|
api_key |
The API key that will be sent. | Mandatory | |
header_name |
Name of the header field. | Optional | "X-API-Key" |
You can send an API key inside the query parameters of your request using httpx_auth.QueryApiKey
.
import httpx
from httpx_auth import QueryApiKey
with httpx.Client() as client:
client.get('https://www.example.com', auth=QueryApiKey('my_api_key'))
Name | Description | Mandatory | Default value |
---|---|---|---|
api_key |
The API key that will be sent. | Mandatory | |
query_parameter_name |
Name of the query parameter. | Optional | "api_key" |
You can use basic authentication using httpx_auth.Basic
.
The only advantage of using this class instead of httpx
native support of basic authentication, is to be able to use it in multiple authentication.
import httpx
from httpx_auth import Basic
with httpx.Client() as client:
client.get('https://www.example.com', auth=Basic('username', 'password'))
Name | Description | Mandatory | Default value |
---|---|---|---|
username |
User name. | Mandatory | |
password |
User password. | Mandatory |
You can also use a combination of authentication using +
or &
as in the following sample:
import httpx
from httpx_auth import HeaderApiKey, OAuth2Implicit
api_key = HeaderApiKey('my_api_key')
oauth2 = OAuth2Implicit('https://www.example.com')
with httpx.Client() as client:
client.get('https://www.example.com', auth=api_key + oauth2)
Testing the code using httpx_auth
authentication classes can be achieved using provided pytest
fixtures.
from httpx_auth.testing import token_cache_mock, token_mock
def test_something(token_cache_mock):
# perform code using authentication
pass
Use this fixture to mock authentication success for any of the following classes:
By default, an access token with value 2YotnFZFEjr1zCsicMWpAA
is generated.
You can however return your custom token by providing your own token_mock
fixture as in the following sample:
import pytest
from httpx_auth.testing import token_cache_mock
@pytest.fixture
def token_mock() -> str:
return "MyCustomTokenValue"
def test_something(token_cache_mock):
# perform code using authentication
pass
You can even return a more complex token by using the create_token
function.
Note that pyjwt
is a required dependency in this case as it is used to generate the token returned by the authentication.
import pytest
from httpx_auth.testing import token_cache_mock, create_token
@pytest.fixture
def token_mock() -> str:
expiry = None # TODO Compute your expiry
return create_token(expiry)
def test_something(token_cache_mock):
# perform code using authentication
pass
This pytest
fixture will return the token cache and ensure it is reset at the end of the test case.
from httpx_auth.testing import token_cache
def test_something(token_cache):
# perform code using authentication
pass
This pytest
fixture will allow to mock the behavior of a web browser.
With this pytest
fixture you will be allowed to fine tune your authentication related failures handling.
pyjwt
is a required dependency if you use create_token
helper function.
import datetime
from httpx_auth.testing import browser_mock, BrowserMock, create_token
def test_something(browser_mock: BrowserMock):
token_expiry = datetime.datetime.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(hours=1)
token = create_token(token_expiry)
tab = browser_mock.add_response(
opened_url="http://url_opened_by_browser?state=1234",
reply_url=f"http://localhost:5000#access_token={token}&state=1234",
)
# perform code using authentication
tab.assert_success(
"You are now authenticated on 1234 You may close this tab."
)
