A middleware for Actix Web that handles authentication with a JWT emitted by Keycloak.

Features

  • Actix Web middleware
  • deny HTTP requests that do not provide a valid JWT (or choose to allow them and handle the authentication state from a following middleware)
  • require one or several Keycloak realm or client roles to be included in the JWT
  • error HTTP responses sent from the middleware can have generic bodies as well as detailed error reasons
  • access JWT claims from handlers (for example: get the ID of the authenticated user)
  • parse custom JWT claims (using Serde)
  • access parsed roles from handlers (every Keycloak role contained in the JWT)
  • compatible with paperclip using the paperclip_compat feature
  • store auth status in request-local data instead of returning a HTTP response (so that the next middleware/handler can try another auth mechanism, for example)
