cloudflare-cognito-jwt-verifier v1.1.3

cloudflare-cognito-jwt-verifier

A lightweight JWT verifier for AWS Cognito running on Cloudflare Workers. This lib fetches, caches JWKS from AWS Cognito, and verifies the JWT token.

Why

Cloudflare Workers runtime doesn't support Node.js core modules, which means we cannot use common libs like jsonwebtoken.

Install

npm i --save cloudflare-cognito-jwt-verifier

yarn add cloudflare-cognito-jwt-verifier

Usage

import { getVerifier, JwtInvalidError } from 'cloudflare-cognito-jwt-verifier';

const { verify } = getVerifier({
  appClientId: COGNITO_USER_POOL_CLIENT_ID,
  awsRegion: 'us-east-1',
  // see auth tokens
  // https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/amazon-cognito-user-pools-using-tokens-with-identity-providers.html
  tokenType: 'access',
  userPoolId: COGNITO_USER_POOL_ID,
});

export async function verifyAuth(request: Request) {
  const header = request.headers.get('Authorization');
  if (!header) {
    throw new JwtInvalidError();
  }
  return await verify(header);
}

addEventListener('fetch', (event) => {
  event.passThroughOnException();
  event.respondWith(async (event) => {
    const auth = await verifyAuth(request);
    const userId = auth?.payload.sub;
    return new Response({});
  });
});
