This repository contains a FastAPI project with Cognito-based authentication. Below are the steps to install, configure, and use the application.

Make sure you have Terraform installed on your system and configured correctly for managing infrastructure.

1. Installing Infrastructure Navigate to the infrastructure folder. Run terraform init and terraform apply to create the necessary infrastructure.

2. Configuring Environment Variables Copy the Cognito ID and Cognito Secret from the AWS console. Add these values to your environment variables file as COGNITO_ID and COGNITO_SECRET.

3. Launching the FastAPI Application Ensure you have all Python dependencies installed (pip install -r requirements.txt). Run the following command to start the FastAPI application:

uvicorn app.service:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 3000 --reload

4. Requesting Access Token Execute the following curl command to obtain the access token:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://fastapi-auth-pool.auth.eu-south-1.amazoncognito.com/oauth2/token \
  --header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
  --data grant_type=client_credentials \
  --data scope=fastapi-auth/api\
  --data client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID \
  --data client_secret=YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET

Make sure to replace YOUR_CLIENT_ID and YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET with the correct values.

5. Invoking the Secure Endpoint To call the /secure endpoint, use the token obtained in the previous step as part of the authorization header:

curl --request GET \
  --url http://localhost:3000/secure \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'

Make sure to replace YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with the token obtained from the previous step.
