Authentication

Gradient able react hooks supports 3 popular authentication methods.

Gradient Able React Hooks supports 3 authentication methods: Firebase Authentication, JSON Web Token, Auth0. We provide Firebase Authentication by default.

How does it work?

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

We implemented to make this work the “Guard” concept from Angular. It is simply a component that wraps a route and checks for user authentication status before allowing the navigation.

We used two guards GuestGuard and AuthGuard, To find more information about guards, please visit the Routes.js page.

In the src/App.jsx, we have specified auth provider JWTProvider like,

import { JWTProvider as AuthProvider } from './contexts/JWTProvider';

App component wrap with the provider, like

  <AuthProvider>
      {renderRoutes(routes)}
  </AuthProvider>

Using FirebaseProvider, we can use the context directly by importing useContext from React and specifying the context FirebaseContext that we want to use or we can use the custom hook useAuth from src/hooks/useAuth.jsx

VITE_APP_FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN=  Firebase Auth domain
VITE_APP_FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID= Firebase Project Id
VITE_APP_FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET= Firebase Storage Bucket
VITE_APP_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID= Firebase Messaging Sender Id

Change Login Form - Open file 'SignIn1.jsx' at directory 'src/views/auth/signin/SignIn1.jsx', and use the FirebaseLogin component.

// Replace at line 13:
import AuthLogin from './FirebaseLogin';

<AuthLogin />

AuthProvider for Layout - Open file 'App.jsx' at directory 'src/App.jsx' and use FirebaseProvider

// Replace at line 9;
import { FirebaseProvider as AuthProvider } from './contexts/FirebaseContext';

<AuthProvider>
    {renderRoutes(routes)}
</AuthProvider>

Change auth Hooks - Open file 'useAuth.jsx' at directory '../src/hooks/useAuth.jsx' and use FirebaseContext

// Replace from line 5:
import AuthContext from '../contexts/FirebaseContext';

const useAuth = () => useContext(AuthContext);

Firebase to Auth0

Set Auth Config - Open file '.env' at directory '.env' and set auth0 configuration.

## Auth0

VITE_APP_AUTH0_CLIENT_ID=
VITE_APP_AUTH0_DOMAIN=

Change Login Form - Open file 'SignIn1.jsx' at directory 'src/views/auth/signin/SignIn1.jsx', and use Auth0Login component.

// Replace at line 14:
import AuthLogin from './Auth0Login';

<AuthLogin />

AuthProvider for Layout - Open file 'App.jsx' at directory 'src/App.jsx' and use Auth0Provider

// Replace at line 10;
import { Auth0Provider as AuthProvider } from './contexts/Auth0Context';

<AuthProvider>
    {renderRoutes(routes)}
</AuthProvider>

Change auth Hooks - Open file 'useAuth.jsx' at directory 'src/hooks/useAuth.jsx' and use Auth0Context

// Replace from line 6:
import AuthContext from '../contexts/Auth0Context';

const useAuth = () => useContext(AuthContext);
