StepZen is a platform to build and deploy GraphQL APIs that integrates and aggregate data from various sources. In the demo section, I will show how to build a GraphQL API in declarative code using StepZen.

Great! With this, we've implemented the login flow using Auth0 and StepZen. You can find the complete source code for this blog post on GitHub.

The final step is to use GraphQL. We'll create a free account on StepZen. Once logged-in, we can access the Account, Admin Key and API Key.

You can find a complete example of using StepZen to implement the Authorization Code flow in the StepZen GitHub repository.

Have a look at https://stepzen.com, which allows you to federate any data source no matter the framework or service used to create it. It has a generous free tier

When moving away from Apollo Server, and you're looking for a replacement built with JavaScript or TypeScript, let me give you some options. If you want to keep building your GraphQL API schema first, you might want to consider Mercurius (which relies on Fastify) or GraphQL Yoga. If you're going to build your GraphQL API code or resolver first, have a look at TypeGraphQL or Nexus. Alternatively, there are great GraphQL-as-a-Service solutions such as StepZen in case you no longer want to build, maintain and host your own GraphQL API.

But you can also build a GraphQL API using a code-first GraphQL server library. This means you can write the resolvers and then generate the schema from the resolvers. Code-first libraries are much closer to tRPC in terms of Developer Experience but still more challenging than using a GraphQL-as-a-service like StepZen.

After installing, you can choose to run StepZen locally using Docker or in the cloud by signing up for a free account at stepzen.com. For this example, we'll be using the cloud version, for which you can sign up for a free account using your GitHub account.

StepZen is participating in Hacktoberfest, and you can contribute by adding a new integration or improving an existing integration in our Examples repository. Every PR to this repository will count towards your Hacktoberfest goals.

To get a GraphQL using StepZen, you can connect your data source or use one of the pre-built examples from Github. In this post, we'll be taking a GraphQL API created on top off a MySQL database from the examples. By cloning this repository to your local machine, you'll get a set of configuration files and .graphql files containing the GraphQL schema. To run the GraphQL API and deploy it to the cloud, you need to be using the StepZen CLI.

Welcome, fellow developers! Today I want to present you a step-by-step technique on how to test Auth0’s custom actions and databases in Javascript. For those of you who don’t know Auth0, it’s an identity management platform that you can connect to your existing or new applications, and configure it to easily provide authentication and authorization mechanisms. It’s one of the easiest solutions for IAM nowadays.

For example, you can rely on the powerful OAuth by Okta to handle your Auth services, Flutterwave payment gateway to accept payment, and Google Firebase Messaging to manage notifications.

For the third, examples here might be analytics plugins in specialized databases like Clickhouse, data-transformations in places like your ETL pipeline using Airflow or Fivetran, or special integrations in your authentication workflow with Auth0 hooks and rules.

Authentication providers like Auth0 and Okta have become commonplace in software development. These providers help take this work off of your plate, and this can be made even easier by using a reverse proxy that provides authentication capabilities, like oauth2-proxy.

Ideally, I would recommend not handling and storing passwords yourself. It is preferable to use an identity provider (IdP), such as Azure AD B2C, Auth0, or FusionAuth. These systems are designed to manage your users' identity (including their passwords) so you don't have to. You could also use Single Sign-On with cloud providers.

Authentication, authorization, access control, and any other synonymous name you can think to call it, is not always a walk in the park. Through the evolution of the World Wide Web (WWW) and web applications, there have been various solutions to help make authentication a breeze. There have been, third-party services like Auth0 that you can easily integrate with your apps without having to worry much about authentication and doing it right, or worry about security because these third-party services cover all of that. There have also been standards, and specifications like OAuth and OpenID Connect (OIDC) which have evolved over the years. Some libraries and SDKs enable developers to easily integrate with these services, standards and specifications without worrying much about low-level implementation details. The only need-to-know is a subset of the SDK’s APIs needed to meet the application requirements. NextAuth.js is one of these libraries!

Auth0 is a cloud service that provides a turn-key solution for authentication, authorization and user management. It is a feature-rich service that is highly customizable and can be used in a variety of ways. Auth0 is a great choice for a wide range of applications, from simple web apps to enterprise applications. It provides a great way to add authentication and authorization to your application without having to build it yourself, and has various integrations with services such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, and more. This along with its passwordless authentication and multi-factor authentication makes it a great choice for a wide range of applications.

When using Auth0 with Next.js, securing all routes except for specific ones, such as the homepage or login page, can be achieved without the need to add extra logic for each route in the middleware. This can be accomplished by using a simple yet powerful regular expression (regex).

Auth0 (provider) Auth0 has been around for some time and is probably the most popular authN provider out there. While authN is their main offering (they give you SDKs for authentication + they store user profiles and let you manage them through their SaaS), they also allow you to define authZ to some degree, via RBAC and policies.
