Haytni

Haytni is a configurable authentication system for Phoenix, inspired by Devise and mix phx.gen.auth

(end) goals:

• security focused
• provides a strong and ready to use base
• non-bloatware:
  • all logics are not located in controllers
  • minimize changes on upgrades
• easily customisable and extendable:
  • enable (or disable) any plugin
  • add your own plugins to the stack

The only things you install in your project are:

• migrations
• views (you may need some custom helpers for your templates)
• templates (for emails and web pages)

If you need your own features, you write (and test) your own plugins:

• no need to change some obscur and very long code you may not understand, you just need to implement the callbacks that feet your needs
• your changes will not impact and break anything else (starting by tests)

Plugins:

• authenticable (Haytni.AuthenticablePlugin): handles hashing and storing an encrypted password in the database
• registerable (Haytni.RegisterablePlugin): the elements to create a new account or edit its own account
• rememberable (Haytni.RememberablePlugin): provides "persistent" authentication (the "remember me" feature)
• confirmable (Haytni.ConfirmablePlugin): accounts have to be validated by email
• recoverable (Haytni.RecoverablePlugin): recover for a forgotten password
• lockable (Haytni.LockablePlugin): automatic lock an account after a number of failed attempts to sign in
• trackable (Haytni.TrackablePlugin): register users's connections (IP + when)
• invitable (Haytni.InvitablePlugin): registration on invitation or sponsorship
• liveview (Haytni.LiveViewPlugin): provides authentication to channels and liveview if the _csrf_token cookie is not available
• clearsitedata (Haytni.ClearSiteDataPlugin): set the HTTP header Clear-Site-Data on logout (and eventually login)
