# Light OpenID
[![Build Status](https://drone.communiquons.org/api/badges/pierre/light-openid/status.svg)](https://drone.communiquons.org/pierre/light-openid)
[![Crate](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/light-openid.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/light-openid)
Lightweight OpenID primitives & client. This package can be used to turn an application into an OpenID relying party.
> **Warning !** This crate has not been audited, use at your own risks!
>
> It is your responsibility to implement the routes (start & finish authentication) that interacts
> with the `OpenIDConfig` helper structure.
>
> Moreover, only a very small subset of OpenID specifications are supported :
> * `code` authorization flow
> * The scopes `openid profile email` are hard coded and cannot be changed
> * User info retrieval using `userinfo` endpoint
## Basic usage
```rust
let config = OpenIDConfig::load_from_url(&AppConfig::get().configuration_url).await.unwrap();
// Start authentication
let auth_url = config.gen_authorization_url("client_id", "state", "redirect_uri");
redirect_user(auth_url);
// Finish authentication
let token_response = config.request_token("client_id", "client_secret", "code", "redirect_uri").await.unwrap();
let user_info = config.request_user_info(&token_response).await.unwrap();
// user_info now contains profile info of user
```
## Feature `crypto-wrapper`
`CryptoWrapper` is a helper that can encrypt to base64-encoded string structures:
```rust
#[derive(Encode, Decode, Eq, PartialEq, Debug)]
struct Message(String);
fun test() {
let wrapper = CryptoWrapper::new_random();
let msg = Message("Hello world".to_string());
let enc = wrapper.encrypt(&msg).unwrap();
let dec: Message = wrapper.decrypt( & enc).unwrap();
assert_eq!(dec, msg);
}
```
> Note : In order to use `CryptoWrapper` on your own, you must add `bincode>=2.0` as one of your own dependencies. This is not required if you decide use `BasicStateManager`.
`BasicStateManager` is a helper that uses `CryptoWrapper` to generate and validates states for OpenID authentication:
```rust
let ip = IpAddr::V4(Ipv4Addr::new(192, 168, 1, 1));
let manager = BasicStateManager::new();
let state = manager.gen_state(ip).unwrap();
assert!(manager.validate_state(ip, &state).is_ok());
```
