228: Authentication rework r=curquiza a=MarinPostma In an attempt to fix #201, I ended up rewriting completely the authentication system we use. This is because actix doesn't allow to wrap a single route into a middleware, so we initially put each route into it's own service to use the authentication middleware. Routes are now grouped in resources, fixing #201. As for the authentication, I decided to take a very different approach, and ditch middleware altogether. Instead, I decided to use actix's [extractor](https://actix.rs/docs/extractors/). `Data` is now wrapped in a `GuardedData<P: Policy, T>` (where `T` is `Data`) in each route. The `Policy` trait, thanks to the `authenticate` method tell if a request is authorized to access the resources in the route. Concretely, before the server starts, it is configured with a `AuthConfig` instance that can either be `AuthConfig::NoAuth` when no auth is required at runtime, or `AuthConfig::Auth(Policies)`, where `Policies` maps the `Policy` type to it singleton instance. In the current implementation, and this to match the legacy meilisearch behaviour, each policy implementation contains a `HashSet` of token (`Vec<u8>` for now), that represents the user it can authenticate. When starting the program, each key (identified as a user) is given a set of `Policy`, representing its roles. The later is facilitated by the `create_users` macro, like so: ```rust create_users!( policies, master_key.as_bytes() => { Admin, Private, Public }, private_key.as_bytes() => { Private, Public }, public_key.as_bytes() => { Public } ); ``` This is some groundwork for later development on a full fledged authentication system for meilisearch. fix #201 Co-authored-by: marin postma <postma.marin@protonmail.com> |
