📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request introduces changes to enhance API token authentication in the HOPR cluster setup. It updates the SETUP_LOCAL_CLUSTER.md document to include instructions for enabling API token authentication. Modifications are also made to the authenticate function in the hoprd/rest-api/src/preconditions.rs file to improve WebSocket authentication logic, including URL decoding of the query string. Additionally, the setup-local-cluster.sh script is refined to conditionally handle API authentication parameters based on an environment variable.

37-41: LGTM! Consider adding more context about API authentication.

The new instructions for enabling API authentication are clear and concise. However, consider adding:

  • A brief explanation of what API token authentication provides
  • Where to find the generated API token after setup
  • Any security considerations users should be aware of

`150-154`: **Enhance API token parameter handling**

The current implementation has a few potential improvements:
1. Consider removing the "--api" flag when authentication is disabled
2. Add validation for the api_token value when authentication is enabled


Consider this improved implementation:

```diff
-  local api_token_params="--api"
-  if [[ "${HOPRD_DISABLE_API_AUTHENTICATION:-1}" == 0 ]]; then
-      api_token_params="${api_token_params} --apiToken ${api_token}"
-  fi
+  local api_token_params=""
+  if [[ "${HOPRD_DISABLE_API_AUTHENTICATION:-1}" == 0 ]]; then
+      if [[ -z "${api_token}" ]]; then
+          echo "Error: API token is required when authentication is enabled" >&2
+          exit 1
+      fi
+      api_token_params="--api --apiToken ${api_token}"
+  fi

159-159: Document the HOPRD_DISABLE_API_AUTHENTICATION environment variable

This environment variable controls a critical security feature. Consider adding a comment above this line explaining its purpose and implications.

Add documentation above the environment variable:

+    # HOPRD_DISABLE_API_AUTHENTICATION: Set to 0 to enable API authentication, 1 to disable (default: 1)
     HOPRD_DISABLE_API_AUTHENTICATION="${HOPRD_DISABLE_API_AUTHENTICATION:-1}" \

12-12: LGTM! Good choice of URL decoding library.

The urlencoding crate is a well-maintained choice for handling URL-encoded strings.


Line range hint 15-71: Verify authentication flow test coverage.

Since this is security-critical code handling WebSocket authentication, ensure:

  1. Test coverage for all authentication paths
  2. Error cases are properly tested
  3. Integration tests with actual WebSocket clients

40-41: Verify WebSocket route coverage and compatibility.

The addition of /api/v3/ prefix is good for API versioning. However, we should verify:

  1. All WebSocket endpoints are covered
  2. No breaking changes for existing clients
#!/bin/bash
# Description: Check for any other WebSocket endpoints that might need authentication

# Look for WebSocket route definitions
rg -A 3 "websocket|ws://" 

# Look for route handlers with WebSocket upgrades
ast-grep --pattern 'upgrade_ws($$$)' 
scripts/setup-local-cluster.sh (1)

150-159: Verify authentication behavior for both API and WebSocket endpoints

The changes affect both REST API and WebSocket authentication. Let's verify the authentication behavior works as expected.

`39-41`: **Consider adding more context about API authentication**

The command enables API authentication but doesn't explain:
- The default behavior (authentication disabled by default)
- Where to find or configure the API token
- The impact on security

Consider adding these details to help users understand the security implications and configuration requirements.


Let's check the related script to understand the default behavior:

<details>
<summary>✅ Verification successful</summary>

Let me gather more information about the API token handling and authentication:

---

**Add API authentication documentation**

Based on the findings:
- API authentication is enabled by default (HOPRD_DISABLE_API_AUTHENTICATION=1 is the default)
- The default API token is "^^LOCAL-testing-123^^" for local development
- The API token can be customized using the --api-token parameter
- Authentication can be disabled using --disableApiAuthentication flag

Please add the following details to the documentation:
- API authentication is enabled by default for security
- The default API token for local development is "^^LOCAL-testing-123^^"
- How to set a custom API token: `--api-token <your-token>`
- Warning about security implications of disabling authentication
- Links to access the API:
  * REST API: http://localhost:<port>
  * WebSocket: ws://localhost:<port>/api/v3/messages/websocket?apiToken=<token>

`37-41`: **Enhance documentation with API token details**

The new authentication instructions would benefit from additional context about:
1. What the API token is used for
2. How to obtain or configure the token
3. The security implications of enabling/disabling authentication


Consider adding a brief explanation, for example:
```markdown
API token authentication adds an additional layer of security to your local cluster by requiring valid tokens for API and WebSocket connections. When enabled:
- Each node will be configured with a unique API token
- All API requests must include this token
- WebSocket connections must provide the token for authentication
