Authentication

Manage JWT Token based Authentication.

JSON Web Token (JWT) is an open standard (RFC 7519) that defines a compact and self-contained way for securely transmitting information between parties as a JSON object.

This information can be verified and trusted because it is digitally signed. JWTs can be signed using a secret (with the HMAC algorithm) or a public/private key pair using RSA or ECDSA.

How does it work?

Only authenticated users can access dashboard pages. If a user is not authenticated, the user is redirected to the login page.

Main.ts

Main.ts
import { fakeBackend } from '@/utils/helpers/fake-backend';
fakeBackend();

router.ts

router.ts
router.beforeEach(async (to, from, next) => {
    // redirect to login page if not logged in and trying to access a restricted page
    const publicPages = ['/auth/login1'];
    const authRequired = !publicPages.includes(to.path);
    const auth: any = useAuthStore();

    if (to.matched.some((record) => record.meta.requiresAuth)) {
        if (authRequired && !auth.user) {
            auth.returnUrl = to.fullPath;
            return next('/auth/login1');
        } else next();
    } else {
        next();
    }
});
