Authentication and Authorization Module for Brokers

Authentication and Authorization module of HTTP/MQTT/CoAP Brokers based on NodeJS for IoT or Internet of Things. This repo is under development.

Getting Started

• If you want to run a test locally, clone this repo.

git clone https://github.com/borokero/borokero-auth
cd borokero-auth
npm install
bash ./scripts/start-server.sh
npm run test

It runs tests. You should attention broker needs to configure keycloak. Scripts start-server.sh and stop-server.sh help to start and stop Keycloak server with a demo realm. It configs keycloak by demo clients and users and needs docker command.

How Using it

This module use Node-style callback and it can be used with Aedes.

'use strict'
var aedes = require('aedes')
var authBroker = require('@borokero/borokero-auth')


var envAuth = {
  auth: {
    realm: "tokenRealmTest",
    "auth-server-url": "http://localhost:8080/auth",
    "ssl-required": "external",
    resource: "admin-cli",
    "public-client": true,
    "confidential-port": 0
  },
  jwt: {
    salt: 'salt', //salt by pbkdf2 method
    digest: 'sha512',
    // size of the generated hash
    hashBytes: 64,
    // larger salt means hashed passwords are more resistant to rainbow table, but
    // you get diminishing returns pretty fast
    saltBytes: 16,
    // more iterations means an attacker has to take longer to brute force an
    // individual password, so larger is better. however, larger also means longer
    // to hash the password. tune so that hashing the password takes about a
    // second
    iterations: 10
  },
  wildCard: {
    wildcardOne: '+',
    wildcardSome: '#',
    separator: '/'
  },
  adapters: {
    mqtt: {
      limitW: 50,
      limitMPM: 10
    }
  }
}

var authbroker = new authBroker(envAuth)

aedes.authenticate = authbroker.authenticateWithCredentials()
aedes.authorizeSubscribe = authbroker.authorizeSubscribe()
aedes.authorizePublish = authbroker.authorizePublish()

const server = require('net').createServer(aedes.handle)
const port = 1883

server.listen(port, function () {
  console.log('server listening on port', port)
})
