Code in

Rails (Ruby)

Coming soon. aton-network is not published on RubyGems yet, so the install line on this page does not work until it is. Until then, everything works over plain HTTP: pick cURL in any code block, or start from Endpoints.

AtonNetwork::Engine signs people in on Rails' own session: the routes, current_atheron_user and require_atheron_user for your controllers. Bundler loads it with the gem.

Install

Set ATHERON_CLIENT_ID, ATHERON_CLIENT_SECRET and ATHERON_REDIRECT_URI (the callback address you registered, such as https://your.app/auth/callback) on your server, or set AtonNetwork::Engine.auth = AtonNetwork::Auth.new(...) in an initializer.

bash

bundle add aton-network

Mount the routes

The engine answers /auth/sign-in, /auth/callback, /auth/sign-out (a POST from your own site) and /auth/session. Link to /auth/sign-in?return_to=/account to sign somebody in and bring them back. If you mount it somewhere else, set AtonNetwork::Engine.mount_path to match.

This example is not written in cURL yet. Showing Next.js.

// app/auth/[...atheron]/route.ts: every Sign in with Atheron route in one file.
// Set ATHERON_CLIENT_ID, ATHERON_CLIENT_SECRET, ATHERON_SECRET and
// ATHERON_REDIRECT_URI=https://your.app/auth/callback (the address you registered).
import { Atheron } from "@aton-network/nextjs";

const atheron = Atheron();

export const { GET, POST } = atheron.handlers;

Protect a page

This example is not written in cURL yet. Showing Next.js.

// proxy.ts (middleware.ts before Next 16): anybody not signed in goes to Atheron first, then back.
import { Atheron } from "@aton-network/nextjs";

const atheron = Atheron({ protect: ["/account", "/settings"] });

export async function proxy(request: Request): Promise<Response | undefined> {
  return atheron.proxy(request);
}

// In a server component, read the person with: await atheron.user(await cookies())

Webhooks

PKCE, state and nonce are checked on every sign-in, the flow is spent on use and lasts ten minutes, the session is a new one at sign-in, a return address is always a path on your site, and signing out revokes the refresh token at Atheron. Sign-out is protected by Rails' forgery protection as well as the same-origin check.

This example is not written in cURL yet. Showing TypeScript.

// Check that a webhook came from Atheron before you act on it. Pass the raw body, exactly as received.
import { verifyWebhook, type WebhookEvent } from "@aton-network/sdk";

export async function handleWebhook(request: Request): Promise<Response> {
  const raw = await request.text();
  const ok = await verifyWebhook(request.headers.get("atheron-signature"), raw, process.env.ATHERON_WEBHOOK_SECRET!);
  if (!ok) return new Response("bad signature", { status: 400 });
  const event = JSON.parse(raw) as WebhookEvent;
  if (event.type === "consent.revoked") {
    // Delete the refresh token you hold for event.data.sub, and stop using what you read.
  }
  return new Response(null, { status: 204 });
}
