Practical Bootcamp JWT Authentication with Java & SpringBoot

Course will start with learning concepts like:

• What is Authentication
• What is Authorization
• Importance of securing RESTful API’s
• What is JWT(Json Web Token)
• Various components and terminology associated with JWT
• Workflow and a diagramatic use case of using JWT

Than we will move on to the actual handson and implementation of JWT in our Springboot project by following below steps:

• Create springboot project from scratch
• Adding required maven dependencies
• Setup project in Github and follow continous integration process
• Setting up database and establishing connection
• Create our Hibernate entity classes
• Create our controller class
• Create the first API
• Start configuring JWT and Spring security
• Create security related classes like configuartion, filters, service
• Making the secret and expiration time configurable
• Configuring the allowed and not allowed endpoints
• Creating user registration and login endpoints
• Creating Role based classes
• Create multiple roles
• Restrict users to functionalities based on Roles
• Setting up github to push code with token
• Creating a JWT token
• Using the JWT token to call a secured API
• Using Postman to test our API’s
• Mechanism to check if a particular JWT token is valid or not
• Extracting user information and role information from JWT token
• Complete source code
