Rails-pangu

δΈ­ζ–‡ζ–‡ζ‘£ Chinese document

Rails-pangu is a Rails 6(API Only) boilerplate which follows cutting-edge solutions already adopted by the industry, notablly, Devise, JWT(JSON Web Tokens), Postgres, Redis, Docker, Rspec, RuboCop, CircleCI. It is a solid production-ready starting point for your new backend projects.

Devise is a flexible and almost a standard authentication solution for Rails, while JWT(JSON Web Tokens) is a JSON-based open standard (RFC 7519) for creating access tokens, which is a distributed and faster solution than authentication through databases.

There is always a strong need to bring these two beautiful solutions together into rails for better user authentication, however, there's no single satisfying article or project which demonstrates how to incorporate both with Rails 6(API Only), which becomes the main reason for the birth of Rails-pangu.

Pangu is the first living being and the creator of all in some versions of Chinese mythology1. Just like pangu, Rails-pangu aims to be a starter kit of your next rails project which eliminates tricky but repeated work.

Getting Started

~ $ git clone https://github.com/ruilisi/rails-pangu
~ $ cd rails-pangu
~ $ bundle install
~ $ rails db:create db:migrate db:seed
~ $ rspec

Try Run & Test to get hands-on experience with rails-pangu.

Features

πŸš€ Rails 6 (API only)

As explained above, rails 6 is the future and is far different from rails 5.

πŸš€ Devise

Quoted from it's homepage:

Devise is a flexible authentication solution for Rails based on Warden. It:

  • Is Rack based;
  • Is a complete MVC solution based on Rails engines;
  • Allows you to have multiple models signed in at the same time;
  • Is based on a modularity concept: use only what you really need.

To our best of knowledge, devise provides a full, industry-standard, easy-to-ingrate way of all kinds of authentication. Damn, it's awesome!

πŸš€ JWT

JSON Web Tokens

πŸš€ devise-jwt

While there are lots of solutions which hook devise and jwt together, this repo is better implemented from our point of view.

We implmented a devise-jwt denylist policy leveraging the power of redis in app/models/jwt_denylist.rb.

πŸš€ Postgres

We use postgres as default database store cause sqlite3 will be replaced sooner or later when the traffic of one web server becomes lager enough

πŸš€ Rspec

Behaviour Driven Development for Ruby. Making TDD Productive and Fun.

πŸš€ RuboCop

A Ruby static code analyzer and formatter, based on the community Ruby style guide. https://docs.rubocop.org

πŸš€ CircleCI

CircleCI is the leading continuous integration and delivery platform for teams looking to shorten the distance between idea and delivery In this project, we leverage CircleCI to test Rails-pangu's code base with both rspec and RuboCop

πŸš€ Factory Bot

A library for setting up Ruby objects as test data.

πŸš€ Docker

Dockerfile with customized features is added to this project:

  • Original gem source https://rubygems.org is mirrored to https://gems.ruby-china.com which both accelerates bundling speed for developers in China and acts as an example of using Gem mirror.

πŸš€ Docker Compose

docker-compose.yml with containers web, postgres, redis is added.

rspec and some other commands are not avaiable in web container since the docker image is bundled with only gems for production mode through bundle config set without 'development test'.

~ $ docker-compose up -d
~ $ docker-compose exec web rails db:create db:migrate db:seed

Then you can run steps in Run & Test as port 3000 is mapped and exposed.

πŸš€ Puma

Puma is a simple, fast, threaded, and highly concurrent HTTP 1.1 server for Ruby/Rack applications in development and production.

πŸš€ Redis

Is there any web project isn't using redis as a faster and sometimes easier way of storing data? Well, if there isn't, just replace it!

CORS

config/cors.rb is changed in the way that any origin is allowed, and Authorization is allowed in header of any kind of request.

Cronjobs

We provide several ways with convenient defaults for adding cronjobs into the running containers as cronjobs are a big part for a project.

puts [
  "59 * * * * ruby script",
  "*/10 * * * * ruby script"
].map { |job|
  *schedule, cmd = job.split(' ')
  "#{schedule.join(' ')} cd /usr/src/app; rails runner \"Util.run_once('#{cmd}')\""
}.join("\n")

If you want to run bash script, you can replace cd /usr/src/app; rails runner \"Util.run_once('#{cmd}')\" to your custom cmd.

Create a role

In addition to the default role we provide, we also allow developers to create their custom role. There is a document about how to create a new role

Denylist

Default denylist with redis

Redis is a good option for denylist that will allow fast in memory access to the list. In jwt_denylist record, we implement denylist with redis. By setting redis expiration time to be the same as jwt token expiration time, this token can be automatically deleted from redis when the token expires.

  def self.jwt_revoked?(payload, user)
    # Check if in the denylist
    $redis.get("user_denylist:#{user.id}:#{payload['jti']}").present?
  end

  def self.revoke_jwt(payload, user)
    # REVOKE JWT
    expiration = payload['exp'] - payload['iat']
    $redis.setex("user_denylist:#{user.id}:#{payload['jti']}", expiration, payload['jti'])
  end

Custom denylist

You can also implement denylist by your own strategies. You just need to rewrite two methods: jwt_revoked? and revoke_jwt in jwt_denylist.rb, both of them accepting as parameters the JWT payload and the user record, in this order.

  def self.jwt_revoked?(payload, user)
    # Does something to check whether the JWT token is revoked for given user
  end

  def self.revoke_jwt(payload, user)
    # Does something to revoke the JWT token for given user
  end

Dispatch requests

You can config dispatch_requests in devise.rb. When config it, you need to tell which requests will dispatch tokens for the user that has been previously authenticated (usually through some other warden strategy, such as one requiring username and email parameters). To configure it, you can add the the request path to dispath_requests.

  jwt.dispatch_requests = [['POST', %r{^users/sign_in$}]]

Revocation requests

You can config dispatch_requests in devise.rb. When config it, you need to tell which requests will revoke incoming JWT tokens, and you can add the the request path to revocation_requests

  jwt.revocation_requests = [['DELETE', %r{^users/sign_out$}]]

Jwt payload

user records may also implement a jwt_payload method, which gives it a chance to add something to the JWT payload.

  def jwt_payloads
    # { 'foo' => 'bar' }
  end

Jwt dispatch

You can add a hook method on_jwt_dispatch on the user record. It will execute when a token dispatched for that user instance, and it takes token and payload as parameters. And this method will call when you access the routes which in dispatch_requests

  def on_jwt_dispatch(token, payload)
    # do_something(token, payload)
  end
