In this article , you will learn how to deal with the refresh token when you use jwt (JSON Web Token) as your access_token.

Backgroud

Many people choose jwt as their access_token when the client sends a request to the Resource Server.

However, before the client sends a request to the Resource Server, the client needs to get the access_token from the Authorization Server. After receiving and storing the access_token, the client uses access_token to send a request to the Resource Server.

But as all we know, the expired time for a jwt is too short. And we do not require the users to pass their name and password once more! At this time, the refresh_token provides a vary convenient way that we can use to exchange a new access_token.

The normal way may be as per the following.

I will use ASP.NET Core 2.0 to show how to do this work.

Requirement first

You need to install the SDK of .NET Core 2.0 preview and the VS 2017 preview.

Now, let's begin!

First of all, building a Resource Server

Creating an ASP.NET Core Web API project.

Edit the Program class to specify the url when we visit the API.

 1 public class Program  
 2 
 3 {  
 4 
 5 public static void Main(string[] args)  
 6 
 7     {  
 8 
 9         BuildWebHost(args).Run();  
10 
11     }  
12 
13 public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>  
14 
15         WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)  
16 
17             .UseStartup<Startup>()  
18 
19             .UseUrls("http://localhost:5002")  
20 
21             .Build();  
22 
23 }

Add a private method in Startup class which configures the jwt authorization. There are some differences when we use the lower version of .NET Core SDK.

 1 public void ConfigureJwtAuthService(IServiceCollection services)  
 2 
 3 {  
 4 
 5 var audienceConfig = Configuration.GetSection("Audience");  
 6 
 7 var symmetricKeyAsBase64 = audienceConfig["Secret"];  
 8 
 9 var keyByteArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(symmetricKeyAsBase64);  
10 
11 var signingKey = new SymmetricSecurityKey(keyByteArray);  
12 
13 var tokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters  
14 
15     {  
16 
17 // The signing key must match!  
18 
19         ValidateIssuerSigningKey = true,  
20 
21         IssuerSigningKey = signingKey,  
22 
23 // Validate the JWT Issuer (iss) claim  
24 
25         ValidateIssuer = true,  
26 
27         ValidIssuer = audienceConfig["Iss"],  
28 
29 // Validate the JWT Audience (aud) claim  
30 
31         ValidateAudience = true,  
32 
33         ValidAudience = audienceConfig["Aud"],  
34 
35 // Validate the token expiry  
36 
37         ValidateLifetime = true,  
38 
39         ClockSkew = TimeSpan.Zero  
40 
41     };  
42 
43     services.AddAuthentication(options =>  
44 
45     {  
46 
47         options.DefaultAuthenticateScheme = JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;  
48 
49         options.DefaultChallengeScheme = JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;  
50 
51     })  
52 
53     .AddJwtBearerAuthentication(o =>  
54 
55     {  
56 
57         o.TokenValidationParameters = tokenValidationParameters;  
58 
59     });  
60 
61 }

And, we need to use this method in the ConfigureServices method.

 1 public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)  
 2 
 3 {  
 4 
 5 //configure the jwt   
 6 
 7     ConfigureJwtAuthService(services);  
 8 
 9     services.AddMvc();  
10 }

Do not forget touse the authentication in the Configure method.

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)  

{  

    loggerFactory.AddConsole(Configuration.GetSection("Logging"));  

    loggerFactory.AddDebug();  

//use the authentication  

    app.UseAuthentication();  

    app.UseMvc();  

}

The last step of our Resource Server is to edit the ValueController so that we can use the authentication when we visit this API.

[Route("api/[controller]")]  

public class ValuesController : Controller  

{  

// GET api/values/5  

    [HttpGet("{id}")]  

    [Authorize]  

public string Get(int id)  

    {  

return "visit by jwt auth";  

    }          

}

Turn to the Authentication Server

How to design the authentication?

Here is my point of view,

When the client uses the parameters to get an access_token , the client needs to pass the parameters in the querystring are as follow:

Parameter	Value
grant_type	the value must be password
client_id	the client_id is assigned by manager
client_secret	the client_secret is assigned by manager
username	the name of the user
password	the password of the user

When the client use the parameters to refresh a expired access_token , the client need to pass the parameters in the querystring are as follow,

Parameter	Value
grant_type	the value must be refresh_token
client_id	the client_id is assigned by manager
client_secret	the client_secret is assigned by manager
refresh_token	after authentication the server will return a refresh_token

Here is the implementation!

Create a new ASP.NET Core project and a new controller named TokenController.

  1 [Route("api/token")]  
  2 
  3 public class TokenController : Controller  
  4 
  5 {  
  6 
  7 //some config in the appsettings.json  
  8 
  9 private IOptions<Audience> _settings;  
 10 
 11 //repository to handler the sqlite database  
 12 
 13 private IRTokenRepository _repo;  
 14 
 15 public TokenController(IOptions<Audience> settings, IRTokenRepository repo)  
 16 
 17     {  
 18 
 19 this._settings = settings;  
 20 
 21 this._repo = repo;  
 22 
 23     }  
 24 
 25     [HttpGet("auth")]  
 26 
 27 public IActionResult Auth([FromQuery]Parameters parameters)  
 28 
 29     {  
 30 
 31 if (parameters == null)  
 32 
 33         {  
 34 
 35 return Json(new ResponseData  
 36 
 37             {

328 
329             refresh_token = refresh_token,  
330 
331         };  
332 
333 return JsonConvert.SerializeObject(response, new JsonSerializerSettings { Formatting = Formatting.Indented });  
334 
335     }  
336 
337 }

Both above two scenarios only use one action , because the parameters are similar.

When the grant_type is password ,we will create a refresh_token and store this refresh_token to the sqlite database. And return the jwt toekn to the client.

When the grant_type is refresh_token ,we will expire or delete the old refresh_token which belongs to this client_id and store a new refresh_toekn to the sqlite database. And return the new jwt toekn to the client.

Note

I use a GUID as my refresh_token , because GUID is more easier to generate and manager , you can use a more complex value as the refresh token.

At last , Create a console app to test the refresh token.

class Program  

{  

static void Main(string[] args)  

    {  

        HttpClient _client = new HttpClient();  

        _client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Clear();

        Console.WriteLine($"the response of authorizing {result}");              

        Console.WriteLine("sleep 2min to make the token expire!!!");

        _client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Authorization", "Bearer " + token.access_token);  

        HttpResponseMessage rsMsg = _client.GetAsync(rsUrl).Result;  

        Console.WriteLine("result of requesting the resouce server");  

        Console.WriteLine(rsMsg.StatusCode);  

        Console.WriteLine(rsMsg.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result);  

//refresh the token  

if (rsMsg.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.Unauthorized)  

        {  

            Console.WriteLine("begin to refresh token");  

var refresh_token = token.refresh_token;  

            asUrl = $"http://localhost:5001/api/token/auth?grant_type=refresh_token&client_id={client_id}&client_secret={client_secret}&refresh_token={refresh_token}";  

            HttpResponseMessage asMsgNew = _client.GetAsync(asUrl).Result;  

            string resultNew = asMsgNew.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;  

var responseDataNew = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ResponseData>(resultNew);  

if (responseDataNew.Code != "999")  

            {  

                Console.WriteLine("refresh token fail");  

return;  

            }  

            Token tokenNew = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Token>(responseDataNew.Data);  

            Console.WriteLine("refresh token successful");  

            Console.WriteLine(asMsg.StatusCode);  

            Console.WriteLine($"the response of refresh token {resultNew}");  

            Console.WriteLine("requset resource server again");  

            _client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Clear();  

            _client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Authorization", "Bearer " + tokenNew.access_token);  

            HttpResponseMessage rsMsgNew = _client.GetAsync("http://localhost:5002/api/values/1").Result;  

            Console.WriteLine("the response of resource server");  

            Console.WriteLine(rsMsgNew.StatusCode);  

            Console.WriteLine(rsMsgNew.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result);  

        }  

    }  

}

We should pay attention to the request of the Resource Server!

We must add a HTTP header when we send a HTTP request : `Authorization:Bearer token`

Now , using the dotnet CLI command to run our three projects.

Here is the screenshot of the runninng result.

ASP.NET Core

Note

In the console app, I do not store the access_token and the refresh_token, I just used them once . You should store them in your project ,such as the web app, you can store them in localstorage.
When the access_token is expired , the client should remove the expired access_toekn and because the short time will cause the token expired , we do not need to worry about the leakage of the token !

Summary

This article introduced an easy way to handle the refresh_token when you use jwt. Hope this will help you to understand how to deal with the tokens.
