Authlib

Overview

The Authlib library provides a modular and secure approach to handling authentication and authorization within the Grafana ecosystem. It's designed to be flexible and easily adaptable to different deployment scenarios.

Key Features

  • Composability: Deploy in various configurations: in-process, on-premises gRPC, or Cloud gRPC.
  • OAuth2-Inspired Security: Leverages familiar JWT-based authentication and authorization for robust security.
  • Modular Design: Built with three core packages:
    • types: The types package is a dependency free set of types and interfaces that most consumers should depend on.
    • authn: Varius components to handle authentication and identity propagation.
    • authz: Authz client to perform authorization.
      • Single-tenant RBAC client, typically used by plugins to query Grafana for user permissions and control their access.
      • [unstable / under development] Multi-tenant client, typically used by multi-tenant applications to enforce service and user access.
