@gablura/auth-next

Production-ready Next.js authentication with NextAuth.js.

@gablura/auth-next

Production-ready Next.js authentication with NextAuth.js. Drop-in auth with credentials, Google OAuth, 2FA, email verification, and password reset.

Why it exists

NextAuth handles session management and OAuth. This package adds what NextAuth does not provide out of the box:

FeatureNextAuth aloneWith @gablura/auth-next
HMAC token exchange to backendManualBuilt-in
Silent token refresh with dedupManualBuilt-in
2FA (TOTP)Requires third-party adapterBuilt-in
Email verificationManualAPI handler + UI
Password resetManualAPI handler + UI
Rate limiting on auth routesManualBuilt-in
Pre-built login/register UIBuild yourselfDrop-in components
Custom UI hooksN/AuseAuthForm, etc.
Account lockoutManualVia backend
Session binding (fingerprint)ManualVia backend

Features

  • NextAuth.js with JWT strategy
  • Credentials + Google OAuth providers
  • 2FA (TOTP) for both credential and OAuth logins
  • Email verification with token-based flow
  • Password reset with email delivery
  • Token exchange — HMAC-signed proof to backend
  • Silent refresh — Automatic token renewal
  • Pre-built UI components — Login, register, forgot/reset password, email verification
  • React hooks — Build your own custom UI with form logic
  • API route handlers — Ready-to-use Next.js route handlers
  • ORM-agnostic — Works with Prisma, Drizzle, MongoDB, or any custom backend

Next.js Compatibility

Next.js VersionStatus
v14.xSupported
v15.xSupported
v16.xSupported (requires next-auth@4.24.14+)

Two ways to use

Option A: Pre-built Components

import { AuthPage, ForgotPasswordPage, ResetPasswordPage, VerifyEmailPage } from "@gablura/auth-next/components";

// Full auth UI with zero custom code

Option B: Custom UI (Hooks)

"use client";
import { useAuthForm } from "@gablura/auth-next/hooks";

export default function MyLogin() {
  const { register, handleSubmit, errors, isSubmitting, onSubmit, handleGoogle } = useAuthForm({
    mode: "login",
    callbackUrl: "/dashboard",
  });

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
      <input {...register("email")} placeholder="Email" />
      <input {...register("password")} type="password" placeholder="Password" />
      <button type="submit" disabled={isSubmitting}>Sign in</button>
      <button type="button" onClick={handleGoogle}>Google</button>
    </form>
  );
}

Quick Start

1. Create API route

// app/api/auth/[...nextauth]/route.ts
import { createAuthOptions } from "@gablura/auth-next";
import { PrismaAdapter } from "@next-auth/prisma-adapter";
import { prisma } from "@/lib/prisma";

const authOptions = await createAuthOptions({
  hmacSecret: process.env.AUTH_SECRET!,
  nextAuthSecret: process.env.NEXTAUTH_SECRET,
  backendUrl: process.env.BACKEND_URL,
  google: {
    clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID!,
    clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  },
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma),
  dataStore: {
    findUserByEmail: (email) => prisma.user.findUnique({ where: { email } }),
    createUser: (data) => prisma.user.create({ data }),
    updateUserByEmail: (email, data) => prisma.user.update({ where: { email }, data }),
    createVerificationToken: (data) => prisma.verificationToken.create({ data }),
    findVerificationToken: (token) => prisma.verificationToken.findUnique({ where: { token } }),
    deleteVerificationToken: (token, identifier) =>
      prisma.verificationToken.delete({ where: { token_identifier: { token, identifier } } }),
    createPasswordResetToken: (data) => prisma.passwordResetToken.create({ data }),
    findPasswordResetToken: (token) => prisma.passwordResetToken.findFirst({ where: { token, expires: { gt: new Date() } } }),
    deletePasswordResetToken: (email) => prisma.passwordResetToken.delete({ where: { email } }),
  },
  userStore: {
    findByEmail: (email) => prisma.user.findUnique({ where: { email } }),
    findById: (id) => prisma.user.findUnique({ where: { id } }),
    update: (id, data) => prisma.user.update({ where: { id }, data }),
  },
  pages: {
    signIn: "/auth/login",
    error: "/auth/error",
  },
});

export const GET = authOptions.handlers.GET;
export const POST = authOptions.handlers.POST;

2. Add auth pages

// app/auth/login/page.tsx
import { AuthPage } from "@gablura/auth-next/components";

export default function Login() {
  return <AuthPage callbackUrl="/dashboard" />;
}

3. Set up proxy (Next.js 16+)

// proxy.ts (Next.js 16+)
import { withAuth } from "next-auth/middleware";

export default withAuth({
  pages: { signIn: "/auth/login" },
});

export const config = {
  matcher: ["/dashboard/:path*", "/settings/:path*"],
};

Configuration

AuthNextConfig

interface AuthNextConfig {
  backendUrl?: string;          // Backend URL (default: env.BACKEND_URL)
  hmacSecret: string;           // Required — shared with backend
  nextAuthSecret?: string;      // Optional — defaults to hmacSecret
  google?: {
    clientId: string;
    clientSecret: string;
  };
  pages?: {
    signIn?: string;
    error?: string;
  };
  adapter?: unknown;            // PrismaAdapter, DrizzleAdapter, etc.
  dataStore: DataStore;         // Required — database operations
  userStore: {
    findByEmail(email: string): Promise<User | null>;
    findById(id: string): Promise<User | null>;
    update?(id: string, data: Record<string, unknown>): Promise<void>;
  };
  callbackRoutes?: {
    success?: string;           // After login (default: "/authentication/success")
    login?: string;             // Sign-in page
    register?: string;          // Register page
    twoFactor?: string;         // 2FA page
    verifyEmail?: string;       // After email verified
    verifyEmailPage?: string;   // Verify-email page in emails
    forgotPassword?: string;    // Forgot password
    resetPassword?: string;     // Reset password
    error?: string;             // Error page
  };
  sessionMaxAge?: number;       // Default: 7 days (seconds)
  sessionUpdateAge?: number;    // Default: 24 hours (seconds)
}

DataStore

The dataStore is required and makes the package ORM-agnostic:

interface DataStore {
  findUserByEmail(email: string): Promise<User | null>;
  createUser(data: { name?: string; email: string; password?: string }): Promise<{ id: string }>;
  updateUserByEmail(email: string, data: Record<string, unknown>): Promise<void>;
  createVerificationToken(data: { identifier: string; token: string; expires: Date }): Promise<void>;
  findVerificationToken(token: string): Promise<{ identifier: string; expires: Date } | null>;
  deleteVerificationToken(token: string, identifier: string): Promise<void>;
  createPasswordResetToken(data: { email: string; token: string; expires: Date }): Promise<void>;
  findPasswordResetToken(token: string): Promise<{ email: string; token: string } | null>;
  deletePasswordResetToken(email: string): Promise<void>;
}
