implementing jwt auth in golang

Dirs

Database: It contains the database initialization and migration function

Handler:This contains all user auth http handler functions

Middleware:The middleware.go file contains TokenBlackList middleware function(this function checks the gets token from header on signout request and check if it's blacklisted or not)

Router:All routes

Validator: This is where all field validaton takes place

Note:

The JWT secret key is defined on line 24 in the handler.go file, this key can be set to anything(you can make it more secured by generating a long and strong random string).You can generate a secretkey with the below code:

import (
     "crypto/rand"
     "encoding/base64"
     "fmt"  
    )

    func generateSecretKey(length int) (string, error) {
        // Create a byte slice to hold the random bytes
        key := make([]byte, length)
        
        // Read random bytes from the crypto/rand package
        _, err := rand.Read(key)
        if err != nil {
	        return "", err
        }

        // Encode the bytes to a base64 string
        secretKey := base64.URLEncoding.EncodeToString(key)

        return secretKey, nil
    }

Next(todo):

Things that are yet to be done:

Unit Test

Crud operation on both User and Profile data

Dockerization

Deployment
