  • Java 8 or greater
  • An Auth0 account

Configuration

Auth0 Dashboard

  1. On the Auth0 Dashboard create a new Application of type Regular Web Application.
  2. On the Settings tab of your application, add the URL http://localhost:3000/callback to the Allowed Callback URLs field.
  3. On the Settings tab of your application, add the URL http://localhost:3000/login to the Allowed Logout URLs field.
  4. Save the changes to your application settings. Don't close this page; you'll need some of the settings when configuring the application below.

Application configuration

Set the Auth0 Application values from above in the src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml file.

<context-param>
    <param-name>com.auth0.domain</param-name>
    <param-value>{YOUR_AUTH0_DOMAIN}</param-value>
</context-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>com.auth0.clientId</param-name>
    <param-value>{YOUR_AUTH0_CLIENT_ID}</param-value>
</context-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>com.auth0.clientSecret</param-name>
    <param-value>{YOUR_AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET}</param-value>
</context-param>

Running the sample

Open a terminal or command line, navigate to the 01-Login directory, and run the following command:

./gradlew clean appRun

If you are using a Windows environment, run the following command:

gradlew clean appRun

The server will be accessible on http://localhost:3000/portal/home. After logging in you should see the token in the header.
