import { CodeTabs, CodeTab } from "docs-ui" export const metadata = { title: `Auth Module`, } # {metadata.title} The Auth Module is the `@medusajs/auth` NPM package that provides authentication-related features in your Medusa and Node.js applications. ## Features ### Basic User Authentication With the Auth Module, authenticate users using their email and password credentials. ```ts const { success, authIdentity, error } = await authModuleService.authenticate( "emailpass", { url: req.url, headers: req.headers, query: req.query, body: req.body, authScope: "admin", protocol: req.protocol, } as AuthenticationInput ) if (!success) { // incorrect authentication details throw new Error(error) } ``` ### Third-Party and Social Authentication The Auth Module supports a variety of authentication methods, such as authenticating with third-party services and social platforms. ```ts // in authentication API route const { success, authIdentity, location } = await authModuleService.authenticate("google", { url: req.url, headers: req.headers, query: req.query, body: req.body, authScope: "admin", protocol: req.protocol, } as AuthenticationInput) if (!authIdentity && location) { res.redirect(location) return } // in callback API route const { success, authIdentity } = await authModuleService.validateCallback( "google", { url: req.url, headers: req.headers, query: req.query, body: req.body, authScope: "admin", protocol: req.protocol, } as AuthenticationInput ) ``` --- ## Configure Auth Module Refer to [this documentation](./module-options/page.mdx) for details on the module's options. --- ## How to Use Auth Module's Service You can use the Auth Module's main service by resolving from the Medusa container the resource `ModuleRegistrationName.AUTH` imported from `@medusajs/modules-sdk`. For example: ```ts title="src/api/store/custom/route.ts" import { MedusaRequest, MedusaResponse } from "@medusajs/medusa" import { IAuthModuleService } from "@medusajs/types" import { ModuleRegistrationName } from "@medusajs/utils" export async function GET( req: MedusaRequest, res: MedusaResponse ): Promise { const authModuleService: IAuthModuleService = req.scope.resolve( ModuleRegistrationName.AUTH ) res.json({ authIdentitys: await authModuleService.listAuthIdentities(), }) } ``` ```ts title="src/subscribers/custom-handler.ts" import { SubscriberArgs } from "@medusajs/medusa" import { IAuthModuleService } from "@medusajs/types" import { ModuleRegistrationName } from "@medusajs/modules-sdk" export default async function subscriberHandler({ container }: SubscriberArgs) { const authModuleService: IAuthModuleService = container.resolve( ModuleRegistrationName.AUTH ) const authIdentitys = await authModuleService.listAuthIdentities() } ``` ```ts title="src/workflows/hello-world/step1.ts" import { createStep } from "@medusajs/workflows-sdk" import { IAuthModuleService } from "@medusajs/types" import { ModuleRegistrationName } from "@medusajs/modules-sdk" const step1 = createStep("step-1", async (_, { container }) => { const authModuleService: IAuthModuleService = container.resolve( ModuleRegistrationName.AUTH ) const authIdentitys = await authModuleService.listAuthIdentities() }) ```
