FastAPI Auth

Authenticate users with FastAPI using the Microsoft MSAL Library and Azure Active Directory.

Getting started

Python dependencies

To get started install Poetry.

Then ensure all dependencies are installed:

poetry install

Pre-commit

Run to make CI-tests pass

poetry run pre-commit run --all-files

Note: SAFETY_API_KEY environment variable needs to be set to run the pre-commit hooks. Create an account with the Safety package and then navigate to Organization > API keys to fetch the key. Once the key has been obtained, set the variable in your terminal using:

export SAFETY_API_KEY=your-api-key

Examples

See examples/app.py for a simple example.

Create a .auth.env file:

echo "session_expire_time_minutes=1
session_secret=<Session-Cookie-Secret>
client_id=<Application-client-id>
client_secret=<Application-Client-secret>
tenant_id=<Tenant-id" > .auth.env

For the session_secret its a good idea to create a secret with openssl rand -hex 32

To run the example

poetry run uvicorn --reload --app-dir examples app:app --reload-dir examples
