View Source DSL: AshAuthentication.AddOn.Confirmation

Confirmation support.

Sometimes when creating a new user, or changing a sensitive attribute (such as their email address) you may want to wait for the user to confirm by way of sending them a confirmation token to prove that it was really them that took the action.

In order to add confirmation to your resource, it must been the following minimum requirements:

1. Have a primary key
2. Have at least one attribute you wish to confirm
3. Tokens must be enabled

Example

defmodule MyApp.Accounts.User do
  use Ash.Resource,
    extensions: [AshAuthentication],
    domain: MyApp.Accounts

  attributes do
    uuid_primary_key :id
    attribute :email, :ci_string, allow_nil?: false
  end

  authentication do
    add_ons do
      confirmation :confirm do
        monitor_fields [:email]
        sender MyApp.ConfirmationSender
      end
    end

    strategies do
      # ...
    end
  end

  identities do
    identity :email, [:email] do
      eager_check_with MyApp.Accounts
    end
  end
end

Attributes

A confirmed_at attribute will be added to your resource if it's not already present (see confirmed_at_field in the DSL documentation).

Actions

By default confirmation will add an action which updates the confirmed_at attribute as well as retrieving previously stored changes and applying them to the resource.

If you wish to perform the confirm action directly from your code you can do so via the AshAuthentication.Strategy protocol.

Example

iex> strategy = Info.strategy!(Example.User, :confirm)
...> {:ok, user} = Strategy.action(strategy, :confirm, %{"confirm" => confirmation_token()})
...> user.confirmed_at >= one_second_ago()
true

Plugs

Confirmation provides a single endpoint for the :confirm phase. If you wish to interact with the plugs directly, you can do so via the AshAuthentication.Strategy protocol.

Example

iex> strategy = Info.strategy!(Example.User, :confirm)
...> conn = conn(:get, "/user/confirm", %{"confirm" => confirmation_token()})
...> conn = Strategy.plug(strategy, :confirm, conn)
...> {_conn, {:ok, user}} = Plug.Helpers.get_authentication_result(conn)
...> user.confirmed_at >= one_second_ago()
true
