This project contains an example application that demonstrates how to use the family API to grant access to restricted sections of a web app.
You will need the following things properly installed on your computer.
- Git: Presumably you already have this on your machine if you are looking at this project locally; if not, use your platform's package manager to install git, and
git clone
this repo. - Node.js and a node package manager like
npm
to install dependencies of the Next.js application and start it up. - Docker: For setting up FusionAuth from within a Docker container. (You can install it other ways, but for this example you'll need Docker.)
git clone https://github.com/ritza-co/fusionauth-family-api-example.git
cd fusionauth-family-api-example
docker-compose up
(this will block the current terminal).
In a new terminal
-
cd app
-
npm install
-
npm start
(this will block the current terminal) -
Open a browser to see result and click "Login".
-
Parent credentials: ("parent@example.com"/"password")
-
Child credentials: ("child@example.com"/"password")
-
Log in to the FusionAuth admin interface using ("richard@example.com"/"password")
This example assumes that you will run FusionAuth from a Docker container. In the root of this project directory (next to this README) are two files a Docker compose file and an environment variables configuration file. Assuming you have Docker installed on your machine, a docker-compose up
will bring FusionAuth up on your machine.
The FusionAuth configuration files also make use of a unique feature of FusionAuth, called Kickstart: when FusionAuth comes up for the first time, it will look at the Kickstart file and mimic API calls to configure FusionAuth for use. It will perform all the necessary setup to make this demo work correctly.
For now, get FusionAuth in Docker up and running (via docker-compose up
) if it is not already running; to see, click here to verify FusionAuth is up and running.
NOTE: If you ever want to reset the FusionAuth system, delete the volumes created by docker-compose by executing
docker-compose down -v
. FusionAuth will only apply the Kickstart settings when it is first run (e.g., it has no data configured for it yet).
