Bewit is an authentication scheme alternative to cookies and bearer tokens.

Bewit enables you to provide authentication in use cases where cookies and authentication headers can not be used. With support for both stateful and stateless authentication, Bewit is a practical solution for many scenarii, including file downloads and temporary or single-use links.

Getting Started

We've prepared a simple example of how to use Bewit to provide stateless secure file downloads for a HotChocolate Server. In this scenario, a HotChocolate server will be used to generate secure links. These links can then be used to download content from an Asp.Net MVC Server without cookies or authentication headers.

Install

You will need the following package for your HotChocolate Server:

dotnet add package Bewit.Extensions.HotChocolate

On your MVC Server, add the following package:

dotnet add package Bewit.Extensions.Mvc

HotChocolate Server

First create a simple HotChocolate API with the following Schema:

const string mvcApiUrl = "http://localhost:5000"; //your mvc api url here

ISchema schema = SchemaBuilder.New()
    .SetOptions(new SchemaOptions
    {
        StrictValidation = false //because we don't have a QueryType in this example
    })
    .AddMutationType(
        new ObjectType(
            d =>
            {
                d.Name("Mutation");
                d.Field("RequestAccessUrl")
                    .Type<NonNullType<StringType>>()
                    .Resolver(ctx => $"{mvcApiUrl}/api/file/123")
                    .UseBewitUrlProtection();
            }))
    .Create();

You'll also need to register some things in the service container:

services.AddBewitGeneration<string>(
    new BewitOptions
    {
        Secret = "my encryption key",
        TokenDuration = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1) //lifespan of the generated url
    },
    builder => builder.UseHmacSha256Encryption()
);

MVC Server

Create a simple Asp.Net MVC Server with the following Controller:

    [Route("api/[controller]")]
    [ApiController]
    public class FileController: Controller
    {
        [HttpGet("{id}")]
        [BewitUrlAuthorization]
        public FileResult GetFile(string id)
        {
            return File(/* your file here*/);
        }
    }

You'll also need to register some things in the service container:

services.AddBewitUrlAuthorizationFilter(
    new BewitOptions
    {
        Secret = "my encryption key"
    },
    builder => builder
        .UseHmacSha256Encryption()
    );

Use

You can now generate secure download urls by calling your mutation:

mutation foo {
  requestAccessUrl
}
