# Decent Authentication

[![Build Status](https://github.com/leesmith/decent_authentication/workflows/Build/badge.svg)](https://github.com/leesmith/decent_authentication/actions) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/leesmith/decent_authentication/badges/gpa.svg)](https://codeclimate.com/github/leesmith/decent_authentication)

Decent Authentication is a sample application that implements authentication in Rails without the

use of a third-party generator or engine. You might often hear the advice that you should not "Roll

your own authentication" but that doesn't mean you **have** to use a gem.

Features:

- Only allow enabled users to sign in

- Request password reset via email

- Forward to protected routes upon successful sign in

Secure defaults:

- Passwords must be [8 alphanumeric characters](https://github.com/leesmith/decent_authentication/blob/master/app/models/user.rb)

- Password reset requests [expire after 2 hours](https://github.com/leesmith/decent_authentication/blob/master/app/services/recover_password.rb)

- Session cookies [expire after 30 minutes](https://github.com/leesmith/decent_authentication/blob/master/config/initializers/session_store.rb)
