Custom Auth Plugin getting undefined in Route Definition #43
Description
Im setting up a Fastify Rest-Api and wrote a Plugin to encapsulate my authentication logic which is based on JWT. Im using the preHandler Hook on each route that i want to protect but it seems that the beforeHandler or my plugin just gets ignored since i can just make a request without a token at all and get the data.
I looked up every piece of documentation but still cannot get it running. If i just console.log() my function fastify.authenticate i get an undefined.
This is my plugin customJwtAuth:
const fp = require('fastify-plugin')
async function customJwtAuth(fastify, opts, next) {
//register jwt
await fastify.register(require('fastify-jwt'),
{secret: 'asecretthatsverylongandimportedfromanenvfile'})
fastify.decorate('authenticate', async function(request, reply) {
try {
const tokenFromRequest = request.cookies.jwt
await fastify.jwt.verify(tokenFromRequest, (err, decoded) => {
if (err) {
fastify.log.error(err)
reply.send(err)
}
fastify.log.info(`Token verified: ${decoded}`)
})
} catch (err) {
reply.send(err)
fastify.log.error(err)
}
})
next()
}
module.exports = fp(customJwtAuth, {fastify: '>=1.0.0'})
I register this plugin like this in my main server.js file:
const customJwtAuth = require('./plugin/auth')
fastify.register(customJwtAuth).after(err => {if (err) throw err})
Then i apply my function like this to the routes:
const fastify = require('fastify')
const productHandler = require('../handler/productHandler')
const productRoutes = [
{
method: 'GET',
url: '/api/product',
beforeHandler: [fastify.authenticate],
handler: productHandler.getProducts
}, ... ]
The api shouldnt return any Data if the request doesnt include a signed jwt or without a jwt at all.
