Auth

Alternative Auth module for Nuxt

Info

This module is meant as an alternative to @nuxtjs/auth, except this is for nuxt3 only with no backwards compatibility support.

Setup

  1. Add @nuxt-alt/auth and @nuxt-alt/http dependency to your project
yarn add @nuxt-alt/auth @nuxt-alt/http
  1. Add @nuxt-alt/auth and @pinia/nuxt to the modules section of nuxt.config.ts

Note: you dont need to specify @nuxt-alt/http, it will automatically be added but if you want to manually add it, make sure it is below the auth module (and above the proxy module if you are using it). It also doesn't need pinia it will use nuxt's useState by default.

export default defineNuxtConfig({
    modules: [
        '@nuxt-alt/auth'
    ],
    auth: {
        /* module options */
    }
});

Changes

The module now uses '@nuxt-alt/http' to function, that module extends ohmyfetch. Please note that if you were using data to post data, you now need to use body since this is what ohmyfetch uses. If you intend to use ssr, please consider using the @nuxt-alt/proxy module.

Composable

A useAuth() composable is availale to use to access the auth methods.

auth: {
    //... module options
    resetOnResponseError: (error, auth, scheme) => {
       if (error.response.status === 401) {
           scheme.reset?.()
           auth.redirect('login')
       }
   },
}

TypeScript (2.6.0+)

The user information can be edited like so for TypeScript:

declare module '@nuxt-alt/auth' {
    interface UserInfo {
        email: string
        name: string
    }
}

Tokens (Types)

In addition to Auth Tokens;

By default the $auth.strategy getter uses the Scheme type which does not have token or refreshToken property types. To help with this, a $auth.refreshStrategy and a $auth.tokenStrategy getter have been added for typing. They all do the same thing, this is just meant for type hinting.

clientWindow
