Just identity check

This is the easiest case. You want a basic ok/nope authentication. Or maybe you have a special on-boarding process which works with only a remote id.

Useable with:

• email auth
• user+pass auth
• google/fb/github/microsoft
• ldap

Needed hook implementations:

• you can skip the hook implementations

Registration process on frontend:

• See the choosen auth method documentation!

Registration process on backend:

• Your registration process only handled by tutelar.

Login process on frontend:

• See the choosen auth method documentation!

Login process on backend:

• You don’t need to implement anything.

After registration:

• Your backend should check the JWT in the Authorization header
  • You can ensure that the user is authenticated
• You can check if the id in the jwt is in your db or not, if not, you can start a special onboarding process
  • get nick, favorite color etc.
  • this method kills the porpoise of using JWT, if you need this type of functionality dive into the authority-handling use-case
• You can track the user by the id in the JWT
  • You know if the same user tries to upvote something twice
