Custom

Using your own Custom Authentication

Introduction
You can use your existing userbase or authentication method with Particle Auth. This way, your users can still log in with their existing accounts. If you need to use this function, please contact us.
JWT Config
Most of the login providers that support JWT-based login will provide you this URL, such as Firebase, Google, GitHub, Auth0 etc.
Example: https://dev-qr6-59ee.us.auth0.com/.well-known/jwks.json​
We only support RS256 by now.
But if you're using jose or jsonwebtoken package to generate a JWT token for login.
Libraries:
1.Java: https://github.com/auth0/java-jwt​
2.Nodejs: https://github.com/auth0/node-jsonwebtoken​
3.PHP: https://github.com/lcobucci/jwt​
4.Go: https://github.com/auth0/go-jwt-middleware​
Then here's the step to do so:
1.Create a Private Key using openssl. openssl genrsa -out privateKey.pem 512: This privateKey will be used to sign the token.
2.Using the above privateKey.pem file, create a Public Key. openssl rsa -in privateKey.pem -pubout -out publicKey.pem: This publicKey.pem will be converted to JWKS.
3.Now, look for a tool that converts .pem to jwk(s) format.
One of the tools is https://russelldavies.github.io/jwk-creator/​
Select Public Key Use: Signing
Algorithm: RS256
Key ID: alpha-numeric-random-string
PEM encoded key: {paste-the-publicKey-pem-file-content-here
​
Click on Convert button.
4.Now, save the output in a .json file, and it. This is your JWKS Endpoint, which you need to send to Particle Team to config.
