AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Demo/test module that adds sample web endpoints to try out JWT authentication in Odoo, returning the logged-in user's name and email as JSON.

This is a demonstration module built on top of the JWT authentication module. It does not add menus or screens; instead it exposes a few web addresses (endpoints) that return information about the user identified by a JSON Web Token (JWT), a signed token used to prove identity.

  • /auth_jwt_demo/whoami returns the name and email of the partner linked to the token, plus the user id.
  • /auth_jwt_demo/whoami-public-or-jwt works either with a valid token or anonymously, returning the user id and, when a token is present, the partner's name and email.
  • /auth_jwt_demo_cookie/whoami and /auth_jwt_demo_cookie/whoami-public-or-jwt do the same but accept the token stored in a cookie.
  • /auth_jwt_demo/keycloak/whoami and /auth_jwt_demo/keycloak/whoami-public-or-jwt are meant to be used with a Keycloak identity provider; the public version returns "Anonymous" when no token is supplied.

All responses are JSON and the endpoints allow cross-origin requests. The module also loads demo data: three JWT validators named demo, demo_cookie and demo_keycloak, configured with an audience, an issuer, a signing secret or public key, and rules that pick the Odoo user and partner from the token. These are sample configurations for testing, not production settings.

Usage

Source · Odoo 18.0

This modules creates a JWT validator named demo, and adds a /auth_jwt_demo/whoami route which returns information about the partner identified in the token.

The whoami endpoint can be invoked as such, assuming python-jose is installed.

# /usr/bin/env python3
import time

import requests
from jose import jwt

token = jwt.encode(
    {
        "aud": "auth_jwt_test_api",
        "iss": "some issuer",
        "exp": time.time() + 60,
        "email": "mark.brown23@example.com",
    },
    key="thesecret",
    algorithm=jwt.ALGORITHMS.HS256,
)
r = requests.get(
    "http://localhost:8069/auth_jwt_demo/whoami",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + token},
)
r.raise_for_status()
print(r.json())
