  16 8,976 9.8 Java

  Welcome to the AWS Code Examples Repository. This repo contains code examples used in the AWS documentation, AWS SDK Developer Guides, and more. For more information, see the Readme.md file below.

  

Project mention: Stubbing AWS Service calls in Golang | dev.to | 2023-08-15

So I did some more research and I found the awsdocs/aws-doc-sdk-examples repo. This repository used a testtools module. So I started an experiment to see how I could use this module. I refactored the code as followed:

• OmniAuth

Project mention: What is the best way to implement social logins in an API-only Rails app? | /r/rails | 2023-10-24

I've seen the Omniauth gem. But based on this gist it seems this gem is more suitable for web apps. Here is the quote from that gist.

Also really easy to implement as there are libraries that do all the heavy lifting for you (https://github.com/markbates/goth is a great starting place IMHO)

• Ory Keto

  35 4,627 8.5 Go

  Open Source (Go) implementation of "Zanzibar: Google's Consistent, Global Authorization System". Ships gRPC, REST APIs, newSQL, and an easy and granular permission language. Supports ACL, RBAC, and other access models.

  

Project mention: Show HN: Blueprint for a distributed multi-region IAM with Go and CockroachDB | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-08

One of Ory’s core competencies is permissions. We built the first Google Zanzibar implementation in the world and it’s part of Ory Network‘s global multi-region platform (https://github.com/ory/keto)

A push model is also valid if you’re heavy on policies and can accept eventual consistency. We will investigate how to generally push things to the edge (like we did with Ory Edge Sessions) or to cryptographic verification wherever staleness is acceptable.

By solving the primitives correctly in the beginning (with a multi region architecture) that job does become a lot easier, which is what we decided doing at Ory :)

• Authlogic

Project mention: Warden of Hanami - hanami.rb basic authentication | dev.to | 2024-05-07

Project mention: Authentication system using Golang and Sveltekit - Login and Logout | dev.to | 2023-06-04

Although there are pretty good session managers in the Go ecosystem such as alexedwards/scs, golangcollege/session and gorilla/sessions, we won't use any but using this great guide, we'll write our own. This is to keep our project's dependence on external packages at the barest minimum.

• loginsrv

  0 1,909 0.0 Go

  JWT login microservice with plugable backends such as OAuth2, Google, Github, htpasswd, osiam, ..

• gologin

  1 1,765 8.6 Go

  Go login handlers for authentication providers (OAuth1, OAuth2)

Project mention: gologin VS lalicat - a user suggested alternative | libhunt.com/r/gologin | 2023-05-10

• Rodauth

  19 1,623 8.2 Ruby

  Ruby's Most Advanced Authentication Framework

Project mention: Warden of Hanami - hanami.rb basic authentication | dev.to | 2024-05-07

There is no Hanami specific authentication library. Rails has a plethora of solutions, but nothing was created for Hanami (at least for the current version). There are framework agnostic tools though. OAuth solutions are like that, JWT, libraries like Rodauth. The last one is particularly interesting for Hanami since it is very much in the same "spirit" in terms of design and it is also the most advanced solution on the ruby market.

• gorbac

  goRBAC provides a lightweight role-based access control (RBAC) implementation in Golang.

• Sorcery

  10 1,413 5.8 Ruby

  Magical Authentication (by Sorcery)

  

Project mention: Everything was going great until I installed Devise! | /r/rails | 2023-06-10

I have been using devise for a while and it has consistently given me issues. I have wistfully been staring at sorcery for a while now but cant justify the switch since devise is already in the project.
