Overview

The Access Shield offers robust authentication mechanisms to ensure secure user access to your application’s resources. It includes features such as user registration, login, session management, OAuth integration, two-factor authentication (2FA), and role-based access control (RBAC).

• User Registration: Allow users to create new accounts with a chosen username and password.
• Login: Enable users to authenticate themselves with their credentials.
• Session Management: Manage user sessions to maintain authentication state across requests.
• OAuth Integration: Integrate with OAuth providers for seamless authentication via third-party services.
• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Strengthen account security with an additional layer of authentication.
• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Control user access to resources based on their roles and permissions.

Getting Started

To begin using the authentication features of the Access Shield, you need to initialize the authentication module and configure it according to your application’s requirements.

import { Auth } from 'access-shield';

// Initialize the authentication instance
const auth = new Auth();

// Register a new user
auth.register('username', 'password');

// Log in an existing user
auth.login('username', 'password');

// Check if user is authenticated
if (auth.isAuthenticated()) {
  // User is authenticated, proceed with accessing secure resources
} else {
  // User is not authenticated, redirect to login page
}
