Auth & Tokens

Create the async core instance, then issue or verify access and refresh tokens.

API: createAuthenik8, issueTokens, verifyToken

auth.ts

import { createAuthenik8 } from "authenik8-core";

const auth = await createAuthenik8({
  jwtSecret: process.env.JWT_SECRET!,
  refreshSecret: process.env.REFRESH_SECRET!,
});

const tokens = await auth.issueTokens({
  userId: "user_1",
  email: "dev@example.com",
});

Direct usage example

The same factory used by generated applications can be used directly:

server.ts

import express from "express";
import { createAuthenik8 } from "authenik8-core";

const app = express();
const auth = await createAuthenik8({
  jwtSecret: process.env.JWT_SECRET!,
  refreshSecret: process.env.REFRESH_SECRET!,
});

app.use(express.json({ limit: "16kb", strict: true }));
app.use(auth.helmet);
app.use(auth.rateLimit);

app.post("/tokens", async (req, res) => {
  const tokens = await auth.issueTokens({
    userId: req.body.userId,
    email: req.body.email,
  });
  res.json(tokens);
});

app.post("/refresh", async (req, res) => {
  res.json(await auth.refreshToken(req.body.refreshToken));
});

app.listen(3000);
