README

The purpose of this bundle is manage refresh tokens with JWT (Json Web Tokens) in an easy way. This bundles uses LexikJWTAuthenticationBundle. Supports Doctrine ORM/ODM.

Prerequisites

This bundle requires Symfony 3.4+, 4.0+ or 5.0+.

If you want to use this bundle with previous Symfony versions, please use 0.2.x releases.

Protip: Though the bundle doesn't enforce you to do so, it is highly recommended to use HTTPS.

Installation

Step 1: Download the Bundle

It's important you manually require either Doctrine's ORM or MongoDB ODM as well, these packages are not required automatically now as you can choose between them. Failing to do so may trigger errors on installation

With Doctrine's ORM

$ composer require "doctrine/orm" "doctrine/doctrine-bundle" "gesdinet/jwt-refresh-token-bundle"

With Doctrine's MongoDB ODM

$ composer require "doctrine/mongodb-odm-bundle" "gesdinet/jwt-refresh-token-bundle"

or edit composer.json:

// ...
"gesdinet/jwt-refresh-token-bundle": "~0.1",
"doctrine/orm": "^2.4.8",
"doctrine/doctrine-bundle": "~1.4",
"doctrine/mongodb-odm-bundle": "^3.4"
// ...

Step 2: Enable the Bundle

Symfony 3 Version:
Register bundle into app/AppKernel.php:

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

// ...
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
    public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = array(
            // ...
            new Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\GesdinetJWTRefreshTokenBundle(),
        );
    }

    // ...
}

Symfony 4 Version:
Register bundle into config/bundles.php (Flex did it automatically):

return [
    //...
    Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\GesdinetJWTRefreshTokenBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];

Step 3: Configure your own routing to refresh token

Open your main routing configuration file and copy the following four lines at the very beginning of it.

Symfony 3 Version:

# app/config/routing.yml
gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    path:     /api/token/refresh
    defaults: { _controller: gesdinet.jwtrefreshtoken:refresh }
# ...

Symfony 4 Version:

# config/routes.yml
gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    path:       /api/token/refresh
    controller: gesdinet.jwtrefreshtoken::refresh
# ...

Step 4: Allow anonymous access to refresh token

Add next lines on security.yml file:

# app/config/security.yml or config/packages/security.yaml
    firewalls:
        # put it before all your other firewall API entries
        refresh:
            pattern:  ^/api/token/refresh
            stateless: true
            anonymous: true
    # ...

    access_control:
        # ...
        - { path: ^/api/token/refresh, roles: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY }
        # ...
# ...

Step 5: Update your schema

With the next command you will create a new table to handle your refresh tokens

Symfony 3 Version:

php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force

# or make and run a migration
php bin/console make:migration
php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

Symfony 4 Version:

php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force

# or make and run a migration:
php bin/console make:migration
php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

USAGE

The configurations can be put in:

Symfony 3 Version: app/config
Symfony 4 Version: config/packages/gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token.yaml

Config TTL

You can define Refresh Token TTL. Default value is 1 month. You can change this value adding this line to your config:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    ttl: 2592000

Config User identity field

You can change user identity field. Make sure that your model user has getter for this field. Default value is username. You can change this value by adding this line to your config:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    user_identity_field: email

Config TTL update

You can expand Refresh Token TTL on refresh. Default value is false. You can change this value adding this line to your config:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    ttl_update: true

This will reset the token TTL each time you ask a refresh.

Config Firewall Name

You can define Firewall name. Default value is api. You can change this value adding this line to your config:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    firewall: api

Config Refresh token parameter Name

You can define refresh token parameter name. Default value is refresh_token. You can change this value adding this line to your config file:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    token_parameter_name: refreshToken

Config UserProvider

You can define your own UserProvider. By default we use our custom UserProvider. You can change this value by adding this line to your config:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    user_provider: user_provider_service_id

For example, if you are using FOSUserBundle, user_provider_service_id must be set to fos_user.user_provider.username_email.

For Doctrine ORM UserProvider, user_provider_service_id must be set to security.user.provider.concrete.<your_user_provider_name_in_security_yaml>. For example, in your app/config/security.yml or config/packages/security.yaml:

security:
    # ...
    providers:
        app_user_provider:
            # ...
    firewalls:
    # ...
# ...

then your user_provider_service_id is security.user.provider.concrete.app_user_provider.

Select Manager Type

By default manager type is set to use Doctrine's ORM, if you want to use Doctrine's MongoDB ODM you have to change this value:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    manager_type: mongodb

Config UserChecker

You can define your own UserChecker. By default the Symfony UserChecker will be used. You can change this value by adding this line to your config:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    user_checker: user_checker_service_id

You will probably want to use a custom UserProvider along with your UserChecker to ensure that the checker recieves the right type of user.

Config Single Use

You can configure the refresh token so it can only be consumed once. If set to true and the refresh token is consumed, a new refresh token will be provided.

To enable this behavior add this line to your config:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    single_use: true

Config refresh token in cookie

By default, refresh token is returned as JSON response. You can configure to retrieve it in a cookie. Cookie is then extracted from request automatically.

Here are default values.

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    cookie:
      sameSite: lax
      path: /
      domain: null
      httpOnly: true
      secure: true

Use another entity for refresh tokens

You can define your own refresh token class on your project.

When using default ORM create the entity class extending Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\Entity\AbstractRefreshToken in your own bundle:

namespace MyBundle;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\Entity\AbstractRefreshToken;

/**
 * This class override Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\Entity\RefreshToken to have another table name.
 *
 * @ORM\Table("jwt_refresh_token")
 */
class JwtRefreshToken extends AbstractRefreshToken
{
    /**
     * @var int
     *
     * @ORM\Column(name="id", type="integer")
     * @ORM\Id
     * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
     */
    protected $id;

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getId()
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
}

When using MongoBD ODM create the document class extending Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\Document\AbstractRefreshToken in you own bundle:

namespace MyBundle;

use Doctrine\ODM\MongoDB\Mapping\Annotations as MongoDB;
use Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\Document\AbstractRefreshToken;

/**
 * This class override Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\Document\RefreshToken to have another collection name.
 *
 * @MongoDB\Document(collection="UserRefreshToken")
 */
class JwtRefreshToken extends AbstractRefreshToken
{
    /**
     * @var string
     *
     * @MongoDB\Id(strategy="auto")
     */
    protected $id;

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getId()
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
}

Then declare this class adding this line to your config.yml file:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    refresh_token_class: MyBundle\JwtRefreshToken

Use another object manager

You can tell JWTRefreshTokenBundle to use another object manager than default one (if using ORM it is doctrine.orm.entity_manager, when using MongoDB ODM it is doctrine_mongodb.odm.document_manager).

Just add this line to your config.yml file:

gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
    object_manager: my.specific.entity_manager.id

Generating Tokens

When you authenticate through /api/login_check with user/password credentials, LexikJWTAuthenticationBundle now returns a JWT Token and a Refresh Token data.

{
  "token": "eyxxxGciOiJSUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXUyJ9.eyJleHAiOjE0NDI0MDM3NTgsImVtYWlsIjoid2VibWFzdGVyQGdlc2RpbmV0LmNvbSIsImlhdCI6IjE0NDI0MDM3MzgifQ.bo5pre_v0moCXVOZOj-s85gVnBLzdSdsltPn3XrkmJaE8eaBo_zcU2pnjs4dUc9hhwNZK8PL6SmSNcQuTUj4OMK7sUDfXr62a05Ds-UgQP8B2Kpc-ZOmSts_vhgo6xJNCy8Oub9-pRA_78WzUUxt294w0IArrNlgQAGewk65RSMThOif9G6L7HzBM4ajFZ-kMDypz2zVQea1kry-m-XXKNDbERCSHnMeV3rANN48SX645_WEvwaHy0agChR4hTnThzLof2bShA7j7HmnSPpODxQszS5ZBHdMgTvYhlcWJmwYswCWCTPl3lsqVq_UOFI5_4arpSNlUwZsichqxXVAHX5idZqCWtoaqAbvNQe2IpinYajoXw-MlYKvcN2TLUF_8sy529olLUagf4FCpCO6JFxovv0E7ll9tUOVvx9LlannqV8976q5XCOoXszKonZSH7DhsBlW5Emjv7PailbARZ-hfl4YlamyY2QbnxAswYycfoxqJxbbIKYGA8dlebdvMyC7m9VATnasTuKeEKS3mP5iyDgWALBHNYXm1FM-12zHBdN3PbOgxmy_OBGvk05thYFEf2WVmyedtFHy4TGlI0-otUTAf2swQAXWhKtkLWzokWWF7l5iNzam1kkEgql5EOztXHDZpmdKVHWBVNvN3J5ivPjjJBm6sGusf-radcw",
  "refresh_token": "xxx00a7a9e970f9bbe076e05743e00648908c38366c551a8cdf524ba424fc3e520988f6320a54989bbe85931ffe1bfcc63e33fd8b45d58564039943bfbd8dxxx"
}

This refresh token is persisted in RefreshToken entity. After that, when your JWT valid token expires, if you want to get a new one you can proceed in two ways:

Send you user credentials again to /api/login_check. This generates another JWT with another Refresh Token.
Ask to renew valid JWT with our refresh token. Make a POST call to /api/token/refresh url with refresh token as payload. In this way, you can always get a valid JWT without asking for user credentials. But you must notice if refresh token is still valid. Your refresh token do not change but valid datetime will increase.

Note that when a refresh token is consumed and the config option single_use is set to true the token will no longer be valid.

curl -X POST -d refresh_token="xxxx4b54b0076d2fcc5a51a6e60c0fb83b0bc90b47e2c886accb70850795fb311973c9d101fa0111f12eec739db063ec09d7dd79331e3148f5fc6e9cb362xxxx" 'http://xxxx/token/refresh'

This call returns a new valid JWT token renewing valid datetime of your refresh token.

Useful Commands

We give you two commands to manage tokens.

Revoke all invalid tokens

If you want to revoke all invalid (datetime expired) refresh tokens you can execute:

Symfony 3 Version:

php bin/console gesdinet:jwt:clear

Symfony 4 Version:

php bin/console gesdinet:jwt:clear

Optional argument is datetime, it deletes all tokens smaller than this datetime:

Symfony 3 Version:

php bin/console gesdinet:jwt:clear 2015-08-08

Symfony 4 Version:

php bin/console gesdinet:jwt:clear 2015-08-08

We recommend to execute this command with a cronjob to remove invalid refresh tokens every certain time.

Revoke a token

If you want to revoke a single token you can use this:

Symfony 3 Version:

php bin/console gesdinet:jwt:revoke TOKEN

Symfony 4 Version:

php bin/console gesdinet:jwt:revoke TOKEN

Events

If you want to do something when token is refreshed you can listen for gesdinet.refresh_token event.

For example:

<?php

namespace AppBundle\EventListener;

use Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\Event\RefreshEvent;
use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
use Symfony\Component\EventDispatcher\EventSubscriberInterface;

class LogListener implements EventSubscriberInterface
{
    private $logger;

    public function __construct(LoggerInterface $logger)
    {
        $this->logger = $logger;
    }

    public function log(RefreshEvent $event)
    {
        $refreshToken = $event->getRefreshToken()->getRefreshToken();
        $user = $event->getPreAuthenticatedToken()->getUser()->getUsername();
        
        $this->logger->debug(sprintf('User "%s" has refreshed it\'s JWT token with refresh token "%s".', $user, $refreshToken));
    }
    
    public static function getSubscribedEvents()
    {
        return array(
            'gesdinet.refresh_token' => 'log',
        );
    }
}
