Usage

Using TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Clients

The TruValidate Multifactor Authentication SDK is broken into credential based factories with access to functionality based clients.

Factories

Factories are based on the credentials supplied. The Organization Factory uses Organization credentials, the Directory Factory uses Directory credentials, and the Service Factory uses Service credentials. Each factory provides clients which are accessible to the factory. The availability is based on the hierarchy of the entities themselves. Below is a matrix of available services for each factory.

Factory Organization Client Directory Client Service Client
Organization Yes Yes Yes
Directory No Yes Yes
Service No No Yes

Utilizing Single Purpose Keys

In the case that separate encryption and signature keys are being used. The initial key given to a factory will be used to sign requests, and any additional keys can be added after instantiation.

from launchkey.factories import OrganizationFactory

organization_id = "37d98bb9-ac71-44b7-9ac0-5d75e31e627a"
organization_signature_private_key = open("organization_signature_private_key.key").read()
organization_encryption_private_key = open("organization_encryption_private_key.key").read()

organization_factory = OrganizationFactory(organization_id, organization_signature_private_key)
organization_factory.add_encryption_private_key(organization_encryption_private_key)
from launchkey.factories import DirectoryFactory

directory_id = "37d98bb9-ac71-44b7-9ac0-5d75e31e627a"
directory_signature_private_key = open("directory_signature_private_key.key").read()
directory_encryption_private_key = open("directory_encryption_private_key.key").read()

directory_factory = DirectoryFactory(directory_id, directory_signature_private_key)
directory_factory.add_encryption_private_key(directory_encryption_private_key)
from launchkey.factories import ServiceFactory

service_id = "37d98bb9-ac71-44b7-9ac0-5d75e31e627a"
service_signature_private_key = open("service_signature_private_key.key").read()
service_encryption_private_key = open("service_encryption_private_key.key").read()

service_factory = ServiceFactory(organization_id, service_signature_private_key)
service_factory.add_encryption_private_key(service_encryption_private_key)

Using individual clients

from launchkey.factories import ServiceFactory, DirectoryFactory

directory_id = "37d98bb9-ac71-44b7-9ac0-5d75e31e627a"
directory_private_key = open('directory_private_key.key').read()
service_id = "9ecc57e0-fb0f-4971-ba12-399b630158b0"
service_private_key = open('service_private_key.key').read()

directory_factory = DirectoryFactory(directory_id, directory_private_key)
directory_client = directory_factory.make_directory_client()

service_factory = ServiceFactory(service_id, service_private_key)
service_client = service_factory.make_service_client()

Using a hierarchical client

from launchkey.factories import OrganizationFactory

organization_id = "bff1602d-a7b3-4dbe-875e-218c197e9ea6"
organization_private_key = open('organization_private_key.key').read()
directory_id = "37d98bb9-ac71-44b7-9ac0-5d75e31e627a"
service_id = "9ecc57e0-fb0f-4971-ba12-399b630158b0"
user = "my_unique_internal_identifier"

organization_factory = OrganizationFactory(
    organization_id, organization_private_key)
directory_client = organization_factory.make_directory_client(directory_id)
service_client = organization_factory.make_service_client(service_id)

Linking And Managing Users

In order to link a user you will need to start the linking process then display the qrcode to them, give them the code, or both.

link_data = directory_client.link_device(user)
linking_code = link_data.code
qr_url = link_data.qrcode

If desired you can retrieve the user's devices and unlink then directly from the SDK

devices = directory_client.get_linked_devices(user)
directory_client.unlink_device(user, devices[0].id)

You can also end all of a user's sessions

directory_client.end_all_service_sessions(user)

Logging A User In

Create an auth request to initiate the login process

auth = service_client.authorization_request(user)
auth_request_id = auth.auth_request

Using Dynamic Policies

from launchkey.entities.service import AuthPolicy
# Require 2 factors and don't allow any jailbroken or rooted devices
policy = AuthPolicy(any=2, jailbreak_protection=True)
# Also make it so the user can only log in from the Portland area
policy.add_geofence(
    latitude=45.48805749706375, longitude=-122.70492553710936, radius=27500)
auth_request_id = service_client.authorization_request(user, policy=policy)

Check whether a response has been received and check whether it has been authorized

from launchkey.exceptions import RequestTimedOut
from time import sleep
response = None
try:
    while response is None:
        response = service_client.get_authorization_response(auth_request_id)
        if response is not None:
            if response.authorized is True:
                # User accepted the auth, now create a session
                service_client.session_start(user, auth_request_id)
            else:
                # User denied the auth request
        else:
            sleep(1)
except RequestTimedOut:
    # The user did not respond to the request in the timeout period (5 minutes)

When a user logs out

service_client.session_end(user)

TOTP

A user can have TOTP configured via the generate_user_totp method on the DirectoryClient.

identifier = "my-permanent-unique-user-identifier"
configuration = directory_client.generate_user_totp(identifier)
print("    Secret:    " + configuration.secret)
print("    Algorithm: " + configuration.algorithm)
print("    Period:    " + configuration.period)
print("    Digits:    " + configuration.digits)

TOTP configurations can be removed via the generate_user_totp method on the DirectoryClient.

identifier = "my-permanent-unique-user-identifier"
directory_client.remove_user_totp(identifier)

Finally codes can be validated via the verify_totp method on the ServiceClient.

identifier = "my-permanent-unique-user-identifier"
otp = "569874"
valid = service_client.verify_totp(identifier, otp)
if valid:
    # Handle success scenario
else:
    # Handle failure scenario

Dealing with Webhooks

Webhooks can be used in opposition to polling. This means we will hit your app on either an auth response or logout request.

You will use the same handle_webhook method for both login and logout.

Note that request.headers must be a dictionary like object.

from flask import Flask, request
from launchkey.entities.service import AuthorizationResponse, \
    SessionEndRequest

app = Flask(__name__)

# Path defined in your Service Callback URL value
@app.route('/launchkey', methods = ['POST'])
def launchkey_webhook():
    package = service_client.handle_webhook(request.data, request.headers,
                                            request.method, request.path)
    if isinstance(package, AuthorizationResponse):
        if package.authorized is True:
            # User accepted the auth, now create a session
            service_client.session_start(user, auth_request_id)
        else:
            # User denied the auth
            handle_denial()
    elif isinstance(package, SessionEndRequest):
        # The package will have the user hash, so use it to log the user out
        # based on however you are handling it
        logout_user_from_my_app(package.service_user_hash)

Running Tests

Running tests is as simple as:

python setup.py test

Validating Code

The TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Service SDK supports and number of python versions and has fairly strict coding guidelines. Tests require a number of Python versions. The best way to manage these versions is with pyenv. You will need to register all of the versions with pyenv. There are a couple ways to do that. An example of doing it globally is:

pyenv local 3.6.13 3.7.10 3.8.9 3.9.4 pypy3.7-7.3.3

Install dependencies via Pipenv

pipenv install --dev

Run validation:

pipenv run tox
