Crate yup_oauth2

This library can be used to acquire oauth2.0 authentication for services.

For your application to use this library, you will have to obtain an application id and secret by following this guide (for Google services) respectively the documentation of the API provider you want to connect to.

Device Flow Usage

With an application secret you can get started right away, building a DeviceFlowAuthenticator and obtaining tokens from it.

Service account “flow”

When using service account credentials, no user interaction is required. The access token can be obtained automatically using the private key of the client (which you can download from the API provider). See examples/service_account/ for an example on how to use service account credentials. See developers.google.com for a detailed description of the protocol. This crate implements OAuth for Service Accounts based on the Google APIs; it may or may not work with other providers.

Installed Flow Usage

The installed flow involves showing a URL to the user (or opening it in a browser) and then either prompting the user to enter a displayed code, or make the authorizing website redirect to a web server spun up by this library and running on localhost.

In order to use the interactive method, use the Interactive InstalledFlowReturnMethod; for the redirect method, use HTTPRedirect.

You can implement your own AuthenticatorDelegate in order to customize the flow; the installed flow uses the present_user_url method.

The returned Token will be stored in memory in order to authorize future API requests to the same scopes. The tokens can optionally be persisted to disk by using persist_tokens_to_disk when creating the authenticator.

The following example, which is derived from the (actual and runnable) example in examples/test-installed/, shows the basics of using this crate:

use yup_oauth2::{InstalledFlowAuthenticator, InstalledFlowReturnMethod};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    // Read application secret from a file. Sometimes it's easier to compile it directly into
    // the binary. The clientsecret file contains JSON like `{"installed":{"client_id": ... }}`
    let secret = yup_oauth2::read_application_secret("clientsecret.json")
        .await
        .expect("clientsecret.json");

    // Create an authenticator that uses an InstalledFlow to authenticate. The
    // authentication tokens are persisted to a file named tokencache.json. The
    // authenticator takes care of caching tokens to disk and refreshing tokens once
    // they've expired.
    let mut auth = InstalledFlowAuthenticator::builder(secret, InstalledFlowReturnMethod::HTTPRedirect)
    .persist_tokens_to_disk("tokencache.json")
    .build()
    .await
    .unwrap();

    let scopes = &["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file"];

    // token(<scopes>) is the one important function of this crate; it does everything to
    // obtain a token that can be sent e.g. as Bearer token.
    match auth.token(scopes).await {
        Ok(token) => println!("The token is {:?}", token),
        Err(e) => println!("error: {:?}", e),
    }
}

Re-exports

• pub use hyper;
• pub use hyper_rustls;

Modules

• access_token
  pseudo authenticator for use with plain access tokens. If you use a specialized service to manage your OAuth2-tokens you may get just the fresh generated access token from your service. The intention behind this is that if two services using the same refresh token then each service will invalitate the access token of the other service by generating a new token.
• authenticator
  Module containing the core functionality for OAuth2 Authentication.
• authenticator_delegate
  Module containing types related to delegates.
• authorized_user
  This module provides a token source (GetToken) that obtains tokens using user credentials for use by software (i.e., non-human actors) to get access to Google services.
• error
  Module containing various error types.
• external_account
  This module provides a token source (GetToken) that obtains tokens using workload identity federation for use by software (i.e., non-human actors) to get access to Google services.
• service_account_impersonator
  This module provides an authenticator that uses authorized user secrets to generate impersonated service account tokens.
• storage
  Interface for storing tokens so that they can be re-used. There are built-in memory and file-based storage providers. You can implement your own by implementing the TokenStorage trait.

Structs

• AccessToken
  Represents a token returned by oauth2 servers. All tokens are Bearer tokens. Other types of tokens are not supported.
• ApplicationDefaultCredentialsAuthenticator
  Create an authenticator that uses a application default credentials.
• ApplicationDefaultCredentialsFlowOpts
  Provide options for the Application Default Credential Flow, mostly used for testing
• ApplicationSecret
  Represents either ‘installed’ or ‘web’ applications in a json secrets file. See ConsoleApplicationSecret for more information
• AuthorizedUserAuthenticator
  Create an authenticator that uses an authorized user credentials.
• ConsoleApplicationSecret
  A type to facilitate reading and writing the json secret file as returned by the google developer console
• DeviceFlowAuthenticator
  Create an authenticator that uses the device flow.
• ExternalAccountAuthenticator
  Create an authenticator that uses an external account credentials.
• InstalledFlowAuthenticator
  Create an authenticator that uses the installed flow.
• ServiceAccountAuthenticator
  Create an authenticator that uses a service account.
• ServiceAccountImpersonationAuthenticator
  Create a access token authenticator that uses user secrets to impersonate a service account.
• ServiceAccountKey
  JSON schema of secret service account key.

Enums

• Error
  Encapsulates all possible results of the token(...) operation
• InstalledFlowReturnMethod
  Method by which the user agent return token to this application.

Functions

• parse_application_secret
  Read an application secret from a JSON string.
• parse_service_account_key
  Read a service account key from a JSON string.
• read_application_secret
  Read an application secret from a file.
• read_authorized_user_secret
  Read an authorized user secret from a JSON file. You can obtain it by running on the client: gcloud auth application-default login. The file should be on Windows in: %APPDATA%/gcloud/application_default_credentials.json for other systems: $HOME/.config/gcloud/application_default_credentials.json.
• read_external_account_secret
  Read an external account secret from a JSON file.
• read_service_account_key
  Read a service account key from a JSON file. You can download the JSON keys from the Google Cloud Console or the respective console of your service provider.
