### [`OAuth2Auth`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.OAuth2Auth)
#### Signed cookies
Reads the `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header and registers the token endpoint
in OpenAPI via `OAuth2PasswordBearer`.
Pass `secret_key` to enable HMAC-SHA256 signed, tamper-proof cookies. The cookie
payload includes an expiry timestamp (`ttl`, default 24 h). No database entry is
required — the signature is self-contained.
Use `set_cookie()` to issue the signed cookie on login and `delete_cookie()` to
clear it on logout:
```python
from fastapi_toolsets.security import OAuth2Auth
cookie_auth = CookieAuth("session", verify_session, secret_key="your-secret")
oauth2_auth = OAuth2Auth(token_url="/token", validator=verify_token)
@app.post("/login")
async def login(response: Response):
cookie_auth.set_cookie(response, user_id)
return {"ok": True}
@app.post("/logout")
async def logout(response: Response):
cookie_auth.delete_cookie(response)
return {"ok": True}
@app.get("/me")
async def me(user: User = Security(oauth2_auth)):
async def me(user: User = Security(cookie_auth)):
return user
```
### [`OpenIDAuth`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.OpenIDAuth)
When `secret_key` is not set, the raw cookie value is passed directly to the
validator (stateful session behaviour — you manage the session store).
Reads the `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header and registers the OpenID Connect
discovery URL in OpenAPI via `OpenIdConnect`. Token validation is fully delegated
to your validator — use any OIDC / JWT library (`authlib`, `python-jose`, `PyJWT`).
### [`APIKeyHeaderAuth`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.APIKeyHeaderAuth)
Reads an API key from a named HTTP header. Wraps `APIKeyHeader` for OpenAPI.
```python
from fastapi_toolsets.security import OpenIDAuth
from fastapi_toolsets.security import APIKeyHeaderAuth
async def verify_google_token(token: str, *, audience: str) -> User:
payload = jwt.decode(token, google_public_keys, algorithms=["RS256"],
audience=audience)
return User(email=payload["email"], name=payload["name"])
google_auth = OpenIDAuth(
"https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration",
verify_google_token,
audience="my-client-id",
)
@app.get("/me")
async def me(user: User = Security(google_auth)):
return user
```
The discovery URL is used **only for OpenAPI documentation** — no requests are made
to it by this class. You are responsible for fetching and caching the provider's
public keys in your validator.
Multiple providers work naturally with `MultiAuth`:
```python
multi = MultiAuth(google_auth, github_auth)
api_key_auth = APIKeyHeaderAuth("X-API-Key", validator=verify_api_key)
@app.get("/data")
async def data(user: User = Security(multi)):
async def data(user: User = Security(api_key_auth)):
return user
```
The header name is configurable — use any header your API defines (e.g.
`"X-API-Key"`, `"Authorization"`, `"X-Service-Token"`).

## Custom auth sources
Subclass [`AuthSource`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.AuthSource)
to implement any credential extraction strategy. You only need to implement
`extract()` and `authenticate()`:
```python
from fastapi_toolsets.security import AuthSource
from fastapi_toolsets.exceptions import UnauthorizedError
class MTLSAuth(AuthSource):
async def extract(self, request) -> str | None:
return request.headers.get("X-Client-Cert-DN") or None
async def authenticate(self, credential: str):
dn = parse_dn(credential)
if dn.get("O") != "MyOrg":
raise UnauthorizedError()
return {"dn": credential}
```
Custom sources work transparently inside `MultiAuth`.
## OAuth 2.0 / OIDC helpers
The module provides standalone async utilities for building OAuth 2.0 / OIDC
login flows. They handle provider discovery, authorization redirects, token
exchange, and state encoding — leaving JWT validation and session management to
your application.
### Provider discovery
[`oauth_resolve_provider_urls()`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.oauth_resolve_provider_urls)
fetches the OIDC discovery document and returns the endpoint URLs. Results are
cached in-process to avoid repeated network calls:
```python
from fastapi_toolsets.security import oauth_resolve_provider_urls
auth_url, token_url, userinfo_url = await oauth_resolve_provider_urls(
"https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"
)
```
Returns a `(authorization_url, token_url, userinfo_url)` tuple. `userinfo_url`
is `None` when the provider does not advertise one.
### Authorization redirect
[`oauth_build_authorization_redirect()`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.oauth_build_authorization_redirect)
constructs the redirect to the provider's authorization page. The `destination`
URL (where to send the user after the full flow) is encoded as the `state`
parameter:
```python
from fastapi_toolsets.security import oauth_build_authorization_redirect
@app.get("/auth/google/login")
async def google_login():
auth_url, _, _ = await oauth_resolve_provider_urls(GOOGLE_DISCOVERY_URL)
return oauth_build_authorization_redirect(
auth_url,
client_id=GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
scopes="openid email profile",
redirect_uri="https://myapp.com/auth/google/callback",
destination="/dashboard",
)
```
### Token exchange and userinfo
[`oauth_fetch_userinfo()`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.oauth_fetch_userinfo)
performs the two-step exchange: it POSTs the authorization code to the token
endpoint, then GETs the userinfo endpoint with the resulting access token:
```python
from fastapi_toolsets.security import oauth_fetch_userinfo
@app.get("/auth/google/callback")
async def google_callback(code: str, state: str):
_, token_url, userinfo_url = await oauth_resolve_provider_urls(GOOGLE_DISCOVERY_URL)
userinfo = await oauth_fetch_userinfo(
token_url=token_url,
userinfo_url=userinfo_url,
code=code,
client_id=GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
client_secret=GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET,
redirect_uri="https://myapp.com/auth/google/callback",
)
user = await db.upsert_user(email=userinfo["email"])
destination = oauth_decode_state(state, fallback="/")
response = RedirectResponse(destination)
session_cookie.set_cookie(response, str(user.id))
return response
```
### State encoding
[`oauth_encode_state()`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.oauth_encode_state)
and
[`oauth_decode_state()`](../reference/security.md#fastapi_toolsets.security.oauth_decode_state)
base64url-encode and decode the destination URL embedded in the OAuth `state`
parameter. `oauth_decode_state` handles missing padding and returns the `fallback`
if `state` is absent, `"null"`, or malformed:
```python
from fastapi_toolsets.security import oauth_encode_state, oauth_decode_state
encoded = oauth_encode_state("/dashboard") # e.g. "L2Rhc2hib2FyZA=="
decoded = oauth_decode_state(encoded, fallback="/") # "/dashboard"
decoded = oauth_decode_state(None, fallback="/") # "/"
decoded = oauth_decode_state("null", fallback="/") # "/"
```
