auth0

After a user successfully logs in, Auth0 sends an ID token to your React application. Auth0, uses ID Tokens to cache user profile information and give it to a client application. The caching of ID tokens can improve the performance and responsiveness of your React application.

You can use the data from the ID token to personalize the user interface of your application. The Auth0 React SDK decodes the ID token and stores its data in the user object from the `useAuth0()` React hook. 

Customize UI With ID Token Data From The useAuth0 Hook's User Object

React is one of the web’s most popular frameworks for building JavaScript applications. 

If you know what you’re doing, React can drastically simplify how you build, use, and maintain code.

You can log out users from your React application by logging them out of their Auth0 sessions using the `logout()` method from the Auth0 React SDK.

Create a `logout-button.js` file in the src/components/buttons folder

Create a logout button component with the following code

```js
import { useAuth0 } from "@auth0/auth0-react";
import React from "react";

export const LogoutButton = () => {
  const { logout } = useAuth0();

  const handleLogout = () => {
    logout({
      logoutParams: {
        returnTo: window.location.origin,
      },
    });
  };

  return (
    <button className="button__logout" onClick={handleLogout}>
      Log Out
    </button>
  );
};
```

The `logout() method from Auth0 React SDK clears the application session and redirects to the Auth0 /v2/logout endpoint to clear the Auth0 session.

You can pass an object argument to `logout()` to customize the logout behavior of the React application. You can define a `logoutParams` property on that object to define parameters for the /v2/logout call. This process is invisible to the user. 

Pass the `logoutParams.returnTo` option to specify the URL where Auth0 should redirect your users after they log out. 

Setting `logoutParams.returnTo` to `window.location.origin` will ensure that Auth0 redirects your users to your production URL that you add to the "Allowed Logout URLs" list.




End Auth0 User Session with the logout Method from useAuth0 Hook

In this lesson, we create an AuthenticationGuard file that uses the Auth0React SDK to protect React routes by requiring login. 

You need to create the AuthenticationGuard component, pass in a component prop, and use it to protect any React route. 

```js
import { withAuthenticationRequired } from "@auth0/auth0-react";
import React from "react";
import { PageLoader } from "./page-loader";

export const AuthenticationGuard = ({ component }) => {
  const Component = withAuthenticationRequired(component);

  return <Component />;
};
```

Will also demonstrates how to use the AuthenticationGuard component to protect the profile, and admin routes in the application. 

```js
import { useAuth0 } from "@auth0/auth0-react";
import React from "react";
import { Route, Routes } from "react-router-dom";
import { PageLoader } from "./components/page-loader";
import { AuthenticationGuard } from "./components/authentication-guard";
import { AdminPage } from "./pages/admin-page";
import { CallbackPage } from "./pages/callback-page";
import { HomePage } from "./pages/home-page";
import { NotFoundPage } from "./pages/not-found-page";
import { ProfilePage } from "./pages/profile-page";
import { ProtectedPage } from "./pages/protected-page";
import { PublicPage } from "./pages/public-page";

export const App = () => {

  return (
    <Routes>
      <Route path="/" element={<HomePage />} />
      <Route
        path="/profile"
        element={<AuthenticationGuard component={ProfilePage} />}
      />
      <Route path="/public" element={<PublicPage />} />
      <Route
        path="/protected"
        element={<AuthenticationGuard component={ProtectedPage} />}
      />
      <Route
        path="/admin"
        element={<AuthenticationGuard component={AdminPage} />}
      />
      <Route path="/callback" element={<CallbackPage />} />
      <Route path="*" element={<NotFoundPage />} />
    </Routes>
  );
};

```

Use Auth0 component withAuthenticationRequired To Protect React Router 6 Routes

The `isAuthenticated` value represents the authentication state of your users it's tracked by the Auth0 React SDK. This value returns `true` when the user has been authenticated and `false` they're when not. Use `isAuthenticated` to render UI elements conditionally depending on the authentication state of your users.

```js
import { useAuth0 } from "@auth0/auth0-react";
import React from "react";
import { LoginButton } from "../../buttons/login-button";
import { LogoutButton } from "../../buttons/logout-button";
import { SignupButton } from "../../buttons/signup-button";

export const NavBarButtons = () => {
  const { isAuthenticated } = useAuth0();

  return (
    <div className="nav-bar__buttons">
      {!isAuthenticated && (
        <>
          <SignupButton />
          <LoginButton />
        </>
      )}
      {isAuthenticated && (
        <>
          <LogoutButton />
        </>
      )}
    </div>
  );
};
```
Authentication process doesn’t happen in your React application when using Auth0. Your React application will redirect your users to the Auth0 Universal Login page. Auth0 asks for credentials and redirects the user back to your application with the result of the authentication.


Use the Value of isAuthenticated to Render Components Conditionality

Create a `signup-button.js` file under the src/components/buttons folder

Add the following code:

```js
import { useAuth0 } from "@auth0/auth0-react";
import React from "react";

export const SignupButton = () => {
  const { loginWithRedirect } = useAuth0();

  const handleSignUp = async () => {
    await loginWithRedirect({
      appState: {
        returnTo: "/profile",
      },
      authorizationParams: {
        screen_hint: "signup",
      },
    });
  };

  return (
    <button className="button__sign-up" onClick={handleSignUp}>
      Sign Up
    </button>
  );
};
```
Adding `authorizationParams` to the `loginWithRedirect()` configuration object with the `screen_hint ` property and a value of `signup` will take users from your React application to the sign-up page.

Pass authorizationParams to loginWithRedirect to Direct Users to Auth0 Sign Up

Create a buttons folder the src/components folder

Create a `login-button.js` file and add the following code:

```js
import { useAuth0 } from "@auth0/auth0-react";
import React from "react";

export const LoginButton = () => {
  const { loginWithRedirect } = useAuth0();

  const handleLogin = async () => {
    await loginWithRedirect({
      appState: {
        returnTo: "/profile",
      },
    });
  };

  return (
    <button className="button__login" onClick={handleLogin}>
      Log In
    </button>
  );
};
```

`loginWithRedirect()` redirects to the Auth0 /authorize endpoint to start the authentication process. You can pass a configuration object to this method to customize the login experience.

Setting up the value of `appState.returnTo` to "/profile", you are telling the Auth0 React SDK to: When my users log in with Auth0 and return to my React application, take them to the "Profile" page.

If you don't set up this `appState.returnTo` option, your users will be redirected by default to the / path after they log in.

Apply useAuth0 hook and loginWithReditect to Add User Login to React Application

Install the Auth React SDK on the terminal 

```bash
npm install @auth0/auth0-react
```

Create an `auth0-provider-with-navigate.js` file in the src folder.

Add the following code.

```js
import { Auth0Provider } from "@auth0/auth0-react";
import React from "react";
import { useNavigate } from "react-router-dom";

export const Auth0ProviderWithNavigate = ({ children }) => {
  const navigate = useNavigate();

  const domain = process.env.REACT_APP_AUTH0_DOMAIN;
  const clientId = process.env.REACT_APP_AUTH0_CLIENT_ID;
  const redirectUri = process.env.REACT_APP_AUTH0_CALLBACK_URL;

  const onRedirectCallback = (appState) => {
    navigate(appState?.returnTo || window.location.pathname);
  };

  if (!(domain && clientId && redirectUri)) {
    return null;
  }

  return (
    <Auth0Provider
      domain={domain}
      clientId={clientId}
      authorizationParams={{
        redirect_uri: redirectUri,
      }}
      onRedirectCallback={onRedirectCallback}
    >
      {children}
    </Auth0Provider>
  );
};
```

Wrap the `Auth0ProviderWithNavigate` component around the `App` component inside of `index.js` to give it access to the `Auth0Context`.

`Auth0ProviderWithNavigate` needs the `BrowserRouter` component from React Router to be its parent, grandparent, or great-great-great-grandparent.

You can use the post-login Action to redirect users before an authentication transaction is complete. This lets you implement custom authentication flows that require additional user interaction beyond the standard login form.

Call `api.redirect.sendUserTo()` with the URL you want to redirect to as a string

After the redirect, in your app resume authentication by redirecting the user to the `/continue` endpoint and include the `state` parameter from the URL. 

If you don't send the original state back to the `/continue` endpoint, Auth0 will lose the context of the login transaction and the user will not be able to log in.


In your application redirect to: `https://{yourAuth0Domain}/continue?state=abc123`

After the user has been redirected to the `/continue` endpoint, the Action will resume by calling the `onContinuePostLogin` function. 

For redirects to work properly, you must have a uncomment the `onContinuePostLogin` function even if the function is empty.

Check if the user has seen the announcement 

```js
  if (!event.user.app_metadata[''announcement_seen'']) {
    api.redirect.sendUserTo("http:://localhost:3000/announcement");
  }
};
```

If the user hasn't seen the announcement set the `app_metadata`

```js
exports.onContinuePostLogin = async (event, api) => {
  api.user.setAppMetadata('announcement_seen', true);
};
``` 


Redirect User After Login with Auth0 Actions

Add the `slack-notify` npm package from the Actions editor to send a Slack message when a new user registers for your application. 

Create a Post User Registration action.

Go to `api.slack.com` create a new app, active **Incoming Webhooks**, and get your Slack Webhook URL.

> Your webhook URL contains a secret. Don't share it online, including public Git repositories.

In the Action editor store the Slack Webhook URL as a secret and add the `slack-notify` npm package.

In the Actions editor enter the follow code:

```js
const initSlackNotify = require('slack-notify')

exports.onExecutePostUserRegistration = async (event) => {
  const slack = initSlackNotify(event.secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL);
  const message = `New User: ${event.user.email}`

  slack.success({
    text: message
  })
};
```
Before deploying test out the Action by click the Test icon. Once test is successful click deploy.

Then click **Add to flow** and drag the Action into the Post User Registration flow.

Add NPM Packages and Store Secrets with Auth0 Actions

After a user successfully logs in, Auth0 sends an ID token to your React application. You can use the data from the ID token to personalize the user interface of your React application. ID tokens issued by Auth0 are [JWTs](https://jwt.io) and you can add custom claims to the JWTs using Actions.

Create a Login Action to add the user metadata as a customer claim. 


```js
exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => {
  const namespace = `https://myapp.example.com`
  const { favorite_ninja_turtle } = event.user.user_metadata

  if (event.authorization) {
    api.idToken.setCustomClaim(`${namespace}/favorite_ninja_turtle`, favorite_ninja_turtle)
  }
};
```
Auth0 allows namespaced and non-namespaced claims.To avoid name collisions, we recommend using namespaced claims. 

You can use any non-Auth0 HTTP or HTTPS URL as a namespace identifier.

Use a URL that you control as a namespace identifier; this allows you to avoid the risk that someone else is using the same namespace. The namespace URL does not have to point to an actual resource. It is only used as an identifier; it will not be called.

The JWT returned to the requesting application is built and signed at the end of the trigger running. The final, signed JWT is not accessible in an Action.

Check out the docs to learn more about [creating custom claims](https://auth0.com/docs/secure/tokens/json-web-tokens/create-custom-claims)

Add a Custom Claim To Auth0 JWT Id Token

Add a custom field to the users metadata with the [Pre User Registration trigger](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/actions/flows-and-triggers/pre-user-registration-flow).

In the Actions editor enter the following code
```js
exports.onExecutePreUserRegistration = async (event, api) => {
  api.user.setUserMetadata("favorite_ninja_turtle","raphael" )
};
```
This action uses the [API object](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/actions/flows-and-triggers/pre-user-registration-flow/api-object) to add the new metadata before the user is saved to the database

You'll learn how to validate performance improvements through data-driven benchmarking, ensuring that optimizations are backed by concrete metrics rather than speculation. This hands-on demonstration showcases a groundbreaking approach to automated function development that combines the precision of test-driven development with the efficiency of AI-powered optimization.


Agent-Driven Development in Cursor: Testing, Benchmarking, and Optimizing Functions

This course is aimed for using `zod` effectively in projects based on TypeScript (both browser and node.js). The benefits you gain with this course is not just simply coding, but also understanding when/why/how should you perform runtime validation.

`zod` is the missing piece to TypeScript's capabilities, which can guarantee type-safety only in compile-time.

`zod` can be used whenever the compiler cannot guarantee what happens in runtime. And... it's a very frequent usecase, such as HTTP calls, websockets, etc.

In this course you get quickly up and running by:
1. using `zod` with primitives and objects
2. adapting `zod` quickly to existing projects thanks to automatic generators
3. changing the strategy frm type-first to schema-first
4. using error-throwing `parse` or non-error-throwing `safeParse` basing on your needs
5. applying `zod` to the most common usecase - validating API responses
6. handling errors the most convenient way (out of many!)

Take advantage of runtime validation with `zod`. Take advantage of the detailed lessons in this course 🔥

Effective Runtime Type Checks with Zod


Cursor can now automatically run commands in the terminal and walk step-by-step towards building out your entire project. You give it a goal, then it will suggest the commands you need to run and the files that you need to create and you can work with it to achieve what you're building. This lesson does a quick walkthough of using a Cursor Agent to build a project from scratch and guide it along the way. Cursor Agents definitely feel like a sneak peek at the future of programming!

While using anonymous functions might seem convenient, they can create difficulties when trying to identify performance bottlenecks during profiling. This lesson will demonstrate how named functions make it easier to pinpoint and address performance issues, ultimately leading to more efficient and debuggable code. Learning this practice will greatly improve your ability to locate and fix performance issues in complex projects.

Always Name Functions in JavaScript


When attempting to load the same module twice in JavaScript you'll hit a cache and code won't re-run. In scenarios where you actually do want to have state in your modules, you'll have to use a cache-busting technique by passing a query parameter to a dynamic import. This lesson walks through how to add a query parameter, how to add the appropriate types for loading dynamic modules in TypeScript, and when these techniques are valuable.

Import the Same JavaScript Module Multiple Times with Cache Busting



The include keyword in GitHub Actions empowers you to add custom variables to your matrix strategy, providing flexibility beyond standard configurations. In this video, we'll explore how include allows you to define specific combinations of variables, enhancing control over your workflow runs. You'll see how this feature enables you to tailor jobs for unique environments or scenarios not covered by the default matrix options. By leveraging include, you can efficiently manage complex build processes with greater precision. This technique helps you streamline your CI/CD pipeline, making it more adaptable to your project's evolving needs.

Use GitHub Actions Matrix Include for Complex Job Configurations

While running `zod` schema validation agains domain-rich objects, the error message saying that _a string is not a number_ might not be really useful.

Especially, when you need to provide a meaningful feeback to the user, e.g. after they have submitted a form with lots of data.

`zod` allows to customize messages on a very granular level. We can also extract repeatable customization to `zod` error maps.

Finally, in order to process an error message further (e.g. display it to the user), we need to handle the `zod` validation errors effectively. Especially, when a big object validation has failed and we could receive a handful of errors.

That's what we learn in this lesson. 🔥

Customize zod Error Messages and Handle zod Errors Effectively

customize zod validation messages, customize zod schema property messages, reuse error maps across different schemas, navigate through zod error objects

You might want to run `zod` schema checks in different styles.

Sometimes you prefer to conditionally throw the error - that's what `parse` does. But another time you'd prefer to receive a `boolean` property that determines whether the validation was successful or not - and perform further actions accordingly.

Additionally, the error-throwing API of `parse` works extremely well with [TypeScript assertion functions](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/release-notes/typescript-3-7.html#assertion-functions). Their combination is just... perfect! 👌

That's what we learn in this lesson.

Use parse and safeParse Runtime Type-checks with zod

use zod parse function to conditionally throw ZodError, use zod safeParse to get a boolean value and run typescript type guard over success property

In this lesson we learn that TypeScript cannot guarantee correct shapes of responses. That's due to TS performing checks in compile-time, while the response will be availbale in runtime - when TS doesn't exist anymore.

In some situations, such as HTTP requests, runtime type checks such as `zod` are essential for providing quick feedback around data-related errors.

Understand where are the possible mistakes to make while using TypeScript with HTTP calls. Use `fetch` and `axios` along with `zod` schema checks.

Also, note that similar mistakes or mistakes could happen while using web storage (e.g. `localStorage`)

Validate HTTP API Response with zod, fetch and axios

use zod as an HTTP response validation tool along with fetch and axios in order to make sure that the response has expected data structure
