I am using flask_jwt_extended for jwt authentication in my flask web application. After the user enters email and password, I make a token using create_access_token and then redirect to another link which can only be accessed with @jwt_required.
app.py file. Notice if the way of importing jwt from user.py file like this is correct.
from flask import Flask
from flask_restful import Api
from resources.organization import OrganizationResourceList, OrganizationResource
from resources.user import LoginResource, user_list, User, jwt
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['SECRET_KEY'] = '_rV;He_7Bz8TVvA'
app.config['JWT_TOKEN_LOCATION'] = ['headers']
jwt.init_app(app)
api = Api(app)
user_list.append(User(name="Admin User", email="admin@test.com", password="12345", photo="", user_type="host"))
# Authorization
api.add_resource(LoginResource, '/login')
# Organization
api.add_resource(OrganizationResourceList, '/organizations')
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(port=5000, debug=True)
user.py file containing LoginResource This is where I am creating token.
from flask import request, Response, render_template, redirect
from flask_restful import Resource
from models.user import User, user_list
from passlib.hash import sha256_crypt
from flask_jwt_extended import create_access_token, create_refresh_token, JWTManager
jwt = JWTManager()
class LoginResource(Resource):
def post(self):
req = request.form
email = req.get("email")
user = [x for x in user_list if x.email == email]
if user:
user = user[0]
password = sha256_crypt.verify(req.get("password"), user.password)
if user and password:
access_token = create_access_token(identity=user.id)
refresh_token = create_refresh_token(user.id)
redir = redirect('/organizations')
redir.headers['Authorization'] = "Bearer %s" % access_token
return redir
return redirect("/login")
Interestingly, when I debug the app, I see the headers of redirect as shown.
organization.py file containing OrganizationResourceList class
from flask import request, Response, render_template
from flask_restful import Resource
from models.organization import Organization, organization_list
from flask_jwt_extended import jwt_required, get_jwt_identity
class OrganizationResourceList(Resource):
@jwt_required()
def get(self):
current_user = get_jwt_identity()
sample_org = Organization(
name='Bin Yousef',
description='My main working company in Qatar',
photo=''
)
data = []
for organization in organization_list:
data.append(organization.data)
return Response(response=render_template('organization/index.html', organizations=data))
After hours of searching, I am still not able to get rid of the error :( Please help
