Resource Server

Protect users resources, so that only the authorized clients with the authorized access token can access the given scope resources.

A resource server can be a different server other than the authorization server. Here is the way to protect your users’ resources:

from flask import jsonify
from authlib.flask.oauth2 import ResourceProtector, current_token
from authlib.oauth2.rfc6750 import BearerTokenValidator

class MyBearerTokenValidator(BearerTokenValidator):
    def authenticate_token(self, token_string):
        return Token.query.filter_by(access_token=token_string).first()

    def request_invalid(self, request):
        return False

    def token_revoked(self, token):
        return token.revoked

require_oauth = ResourceProtector()

# only bearer token is supported currently
require_oauth.register_token_validator(MyBearerTokenValidator())

# you can also create BearerTokenValidator with shortcut
from authlib.flask.oauth2.sqla import create_bearer_token_validator

BearerTokenValidator = create_bearer_token_validator(db.session, Token)
require_oauth.register_token_validator(BearerTokenValidator())

@app.route('/user')
@require_oauth('profile')
def user_profile():
    user = current_token.user
    return jsonify(user)

If the resource is not protected by a scope, use None:

@app.route('/user')
@require_oauth()
def user_profile():
    user = current_token.user
    return jsonify(user)

# or with None

@app.route('/user')
@require_oauth(None)
def user_profile():
    user = current_token.user
    return jsonify(user)

The current_token is a proxy to the Token model you have defined above. Since there is a user relationship on the Token model, we can access this user with current_token.user.

If decorator is not your favorite, there is a with statement for you:

@app.route('/user')
def user_profile():
    with require_oauth.acquire('profile') as token:
        user = token.user
        return jsonify(user)

Multiple Scopes

You can apply multiple scopes to one endpoint in AND and OR modes. The default is AND mode.

@app.route('/profile')
@require_oauth('profile email', 'AND')
def user_profile():
    user = current_token.user
    return jsonify(user)

It requires the token containing both profile and email scope.

@app.route('/profile')
@require_oauth('profile email', 'OR')
def user_profile():
    user = current_token.user
    return jsonify(user)

It requires the token containing either profile or email scope.

It is also possible to pass a function as the scope operator. e.g.:

def scope_operator(token_scopes, resource_scopes):
    # this equals "AND"
    return token_scopes.issuperset(resource_scopes)

@app.route('/profile')
@require_oauth('profile email', scope_operator)
def user_profile():
    user = current_token.user
    return jsonify(user)

MethodView & Flask-Restful

You can also use the require_oauth decorator in flask.views.MethodView and flask_restful.Resource:

from flask.views import MethodView

class UserAPI(MethodView):
    decorators = [require_oauth('profile')]


from flask_restful import Resource

class UserAPI(Resource):
    method_decorators = [require_oauth('profile')]
