Mc-Auth

Use your Minecraft account to easily log in, without giving your password or email to some random website! Thanks to Mc-Auth, you can securely log in to third-party services without providing your sensitive data to Mc-Auth!

It aims to be highly transparent to users and developers. Thanks to this transparency, it is easily compliant with most data protection laws e.g. the GDPR.

Another Authentication Service for Minecraft? Really?

I know there is minecraft.id by inventivetalent or Minecraft oAuth by Deftware (and some more), but I had something different in mind for my project SkinDB.net. They look nice and get the job done, but are lacking information about how your data is treated (e.g. GDPR compliant?). Another feature I missed was full oAuth2 implementation. What would normally be done by Mojang as account holders, but they didn't (until now).

So I started reading RFC 6749 to understand how oAuth2 works and has to be implemented => Mc-Auth.com was born!

How to use Mc-Auth?

If you are a developer, you can check the documentation and find out more about using Mc-Auth.

If you are a normal Minecraft player and a website or application you are using might find this interesting, feel free to contact them with a link to this project – While making the Minecraft Community a safer place!

Setup

Some npm scripts exist for convenience: * build: Builds the project for production * build:dev: Builds the project for development (includes source maps)

• dev: Builds and starts the project while watches for file changes to automatically restart

• test: Runs the tests

• snyk: Uses snyk to check the source code for vulnerabilities

• snyk:docker: Uses snyk to check the production Docker image for vulnerabilities

• docker:build:prod: Builds the production Docker image

• docker:build:dev: Builds the development Docker image
• docker:dev: Builds and starts the development Docker image (container uses host network and mounts local ./storage/ directory)

Development

You'll need at least Node.js v16 and Linux/Bash is recommended (my npm scripts expect bash). Additionally, you'll need a PostgreSQL instance (a local docker container might be an option).

Configuration is done inside ./storage/ and interesting npm scripts are dev, build:dev and docker:dev.

Production

• Please prepare your database by running ./database-setup.sql

• When you are done, visit Mc-Auth-com/McAuth-BungeeCord and continue by setting it up too

• Run npm run docker:build:prod (no npm install needed)

• Start the container with something similar to: shell docker run \ --detach \ --name mc-auth-web \ --publish 8080:8080 \ --volume mc-auth-web-storage:/app/storage/ \ --volume mc-auth-web-logs:/app/logs/ \ --cpus 2 \ --memory 256M \ --security-opt=no-new-privileges \ --read-only \ mc-auth-web:latest
• Edit the configuration inside the container at /app/storage/

Or without docker: 1. npm ci 2. npm run build 3. node ./dist/index.js 4. Edit the configuration inside ./storage/
