Authentication

[r3v1]

Hi,

how do I add FastAPI authentication features to the endpoint calls?

Thanks

I don't think anyone has tried setting up xpublish with authentication yet. If I were to look into this, I would start with the FastAPI tutorial on security, then look at the xpublish routers to see if you can inject the token dependency there. @benbovy will know more but I suspect #89 will make this much easier.

Hello! I am new to contributing to open source. But I would like to work on adding authentication via FastAPI if that is fine?
Thanks!

FastAPI-Users does a lot of heavy-lifting for authentication and user management. That's what we use in jupyverse.

This has sat for a long time so I'm going to close this out. The approach I would take here is to apply auth as a middleware layer on top of the Xpublish FastAPI App.
