SecurityDept

SecurityDept is a layered authentication and authorization toolkit. It ships as reusable Rust crates, TypeScript SDK packages, and reference applications that validate the same contracts in real server and browser deployments.

This repo currently tracks the active release line for packaging, documentation, release automation, and reference-app readiness for the existing auth stack. The live version badges above reflect the published packages.

Use SecurityDept

Rust Crates

Use the Rust crates when you are building server-side auth flows, credential verification, OIDC/OAuth integration, or framework-neutral auth-context services.

Primary crate families:

• securitydept-creds, securitydept-creds-manage, securitydept-realip
• securitydept-oidc-client, securitydept-oauth-provider, securitydept-oauth-resource-server
• securitydept-basic-auth-context, securitydept-session-context, securitydept-token-set-context
• securitydept-core for aligned downstream re-exports

Typical example: enable the session-context surface through securitydept-core, then build the session payload with the re-exported types.

cargo add securitydept-core --features session-context

use securitydept_core::session_context::{
  SessionContext,
  SessionContextConfig,
  SessionPrincipal,
};

let session_config = SessionContextConfig::default();
let session = SessionContext::builder()
  .principal(
    SessionPrincipal::builder()
      .subject("dev-session")
      .display_name("dev")
      .build(),
  )
  .build();

That is the recommended Rust entry style in this repo: depend on securitydept-core, turn on only the features you need, and import the product surface through its re-exports.

Start with Architecture and Auth Context and Modes.

TypeScript SDKs

Use the npm packages when you are building browser, React, Angular, or host-framework integrations for SecurityDept auth-context modes.

Published SDK families:

• @securitydept/client, @securitydept/client-react, @securitydept/client-angular
• @securitydept/basic-auth-context-client, @securitydept/basic-auth-context-client-react, @securitydept/basic-auth-context-client-angular
• @securitydept/session-context-client, @securitydept/session-context-client-react, @securitydept/session-context-client-angular
• @securitydept/token-set-context-client, @securitydept/token-set-context-client-react, @securitydept/token-set-context-client-angular

Typical example: wire a browser-only Basic Auth entry with @securitydept/basic-auth-context-client.

pnpm add @securitydept/basic-auth-context-client

import {
  AuthGuardResultKind,
  BasicAuthContextClient,
} from "@securitydept/basic-auth-context-client";

const client = new BasicAuthContextClient({
  baseUrl: "https://auth.example.com",
  zones: [{ zonePrefix: "/basic" }],
});

const result = client.handleUnauthorized("/basic/api/groups", 401);

if (result.kind === AuthGuardResultKind.Redirect) {
  window.location.href = result.location;
}

That is the minimal SDK entry: detect a zone-scoped 401 and redirect the browser to the matching login route.

The canonical SDK entrypoint is Client SDK Guide. Treat apps/webui/src/api/* as reference-app glue, not public SDK API.

Reference App And Docker Image

The reference runtime combines the Axum server and web UI to dogfood:

• Basic Auth, cookie-session, and token-set auth-context modes
• browser / React / Angular SDK adapter ergonomics
• protected management APIs, bearer propagation, real-IP policy, route guards, and release packaging

Typical example: fetch the published sample config and compose file, then start the reference image locally.

wget -O config.toml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethaxon/securitydept/main/config.example.toml
wget -O docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethaxon/securitydept/main/docker-compose.yml
docker compose up -d

If you only want the smallest compose skeleton, it looks like this:

services:
  securitydept-server:
    image: ghcr.io/ethaxon/securitydept:latest
    ports:
      - "7021:7021"
    environment:
      SECURITYDEPT_CONFIG: /app/config.toml
    volumes:
      - ./config.toml:/app/config.toml
      - ./data:/app/data

The reference app is then exposed on http://localhost:7021.

The release Docker image is assembled from prebuilt server, CLI, and web UI artifacts through Dockerfile.runtime and tagged by scripts/release-cli.ts docker publish; see Release Automation.

Develop This Repository

Use the repository docs when changing SecurityDept itself:

• Overview for the document map and current artifact boundaries
• Features for implemented vs planned capability status
• Error System Design for response-envelope and diagnostics rules
• Reference App: Outposts for real adopter calibration
• Roadmap for current release state and deferrals
• TS SDK Migrations for public-surface migration records

Local setup:

mise install
pnpm install
just setup-docs

Common loops:

just dev-server
just dev-webui
just lint
just unittest
just integration
just e2e
just test-all
just build-docs

The root justfile imports topic files under justfiles/; imported recipes still run from the repository root. Kubernetes-backed Rust e2e resources are managed through scripts/test-cli.ts, with reusable labeled local Docker/kind/k3d resources and explicit cleanup recipes.

Project Boundaries

• SecurityDept is not a single monolithic auth service; it is a layered stack of reusable crates, SDKs, and reference apps.
• The long-term product auth-context surfaces are Basic Auth context, session context, and token-set context.
• Higher-complexity token-set deployments such as mixed custody, BFF, and server-side token ownership are not part of the current release contract unless documented in the SDK guide.
• Historical status belongs outside user-facing docs; docs should describe current behavior or explicit future plans.

Docs Site

Source docs live in docs/en and docs/zh. The VitePress docsite in docsite/ uses Git-compatible symlinks to those source docs and is built independently from the main app build.

Planned public URL: https://securitydept.ethaxon.com/.
