Tokens

Tokens is a Java library for verifying and storing OAuth 2.0 service access tokens. It is resilient, configurable, and production-tested, and works with all JVM languages.

Build Status Javadocs Maven Central Coverage Status codecov.io

Project Features and Functionality

Some of the features Tokens offers:

  • support for credential rotation, by reading them on-demand from the file system
  • extensiblity with a credentials provider
  • configuration flexibility; specify multiple tokens with different scopes
  • the ability to inject fixed OAuth2 access tokens

Tokens can be useful to devs (at any company, large or small) who are working with highly-distributed microservices deployed in the cloud and need to authenticate the traffic generated when accessing APIs. For example, if your team wants to consume an API with OAuth2 credentials, Tokens will fetch the tokens for you. Then you just add scopes in the token.

When creating tokens, it's easy to make a lot of mistakes. Tokens aims to save you hassle and time.

Prerequisites

  • Java 8
  • Maven
  • Gradle

Maven Dependency

Add it with:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.zalando.stups</groupId>
    <artifactId>tokens</artifactId>
    <version>see above</version>
</dependency>

Gradle Dependency

compile('org.zalando.stups:tokens:${version}')

Usage in Zalandos K8s environment (with PlatformCredentialsSet)

It uses /meta/credentials as a default folder to look for provided tokens by PlatformCredentialsSet.

import org.zalando.stups.tokens.Tokens;
import org.zalando.stups.tokens.AccessTokens;

AccessTokens tokens = Tokens.createAccessTokensWithUri(new URI("https://this.url.will.be.ignored"))
                            .start();

while (true) {
    final String token = tokens.get("exampleRO");

    Request.Get("https://api.example.com")
           .addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer " + token)
           .execute():

    Thread.sleep(1000);
}

Usage in Zalandos STUPS environment

import org.zalando.stups.tokens.Tokens;
import org.zalando.stups.tokens.AccessTokens;

AccessTokens tokens = Tokens.createAccessTokensWithUri(new URI("https://example.com/access_tokens"))
                            .manageToken("exampleRW")
                                .addScope("read")
                                .addScope("write")
                                .done()
                            .manageToken("exampleRO")
                                .addScope("read")
                                .done()
                            .start();

while (true) {
    final String token = tokens.get("exampleRO");

    Request.Get("https://api.example.com")
           .addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer " + token)
           .execute():

    Thread.sleep(1000);
}

Migration from Zalandos STUPS env to Zalandos K8s env

Your code can stay as is.

A common issue is not mounting the the credentials. Please use the example below as a guide line.

...
          volumeMounts:
          - name: "{{ APPLICATION }}-credentials"
            mountPath: /meta/credentials
            readOnly: true
      volumes:
        - name: "{{ APPLICATION }}-credentials"
          secret:
            secretName: "{{ APPLICATION }}-credentials"

Please also make sure that token identifiers/names must equal the respective items in credentials.yaml::

apiVersion: "zalando.org/v1"
kind: PlatformCredentialsSet
metadata:
   name: "{{ APPLICATION }}-credentials"
spec:
   application: "{{ APPLICATION }}"
   tokens:
     exampleRW:
       privileges:
         - com.zalando::read
         - com.zalando::write
     exampleRO:
       privileges:
         - com.zalando::read

Local Testing

With Tokens, you can inject fixed OAuth2 access tokens via the OAUTH2_ACCESS_TOKENS environment variable and test applications locally with personal OAuth2 tokens. As an example:

$ MY_TOKEN_1=$(zign token -n mytok1)
$ MY_TOKEN_2=$(zign token -n mytok2)
$ export OAUTH2_ACCESS_TOKENS=mytok1=$MY_TOKEN_1,mytok2=$MY_TOKEN_2
$ lein repl # start my local Clojure app using the tokens library

In production on EC2 instances, Tokens fetches access tokens by requesting an authorization server with credentials, found in client.json and user.json. It's also possible to provide client.json and user.json with valid content and point this library to that directory.
