GoTrue

User management for APIs

GoTrue is a small open-source API written in Golang, that can act as a self-standing API service for handling user registration and authentication for Jamstack projects.

It's based on OAuth2 and JWT and will handle user signup, authentication and custom user data.

Configuration

You may configure GoTrue using either a configuration file named .env, environment variables, or a combination of both. Environment variables are prefixed with GOTRUE_, and will always have precedence over values provided via file.

Top-Level

GOTRUE_SITE_URL=https://example.netlify.com/

SITE_URL - string required

The base URL your site is located at. Currently used in combination with other settings to construct URLs used in emails.

OPERATOR_TOKEN - string Multi-instance mode only

The shared secret with an operator (usually Netlify) for this microservice. Used to verify requests have been proxied through the operator and the payload values can be trusted.

DISABLE_SIGNUP - bool

When signup is disabled the only way to create new users is through invites. Defaults to false, all signups enabled.

GOTRUE_RATE_LIMIT_HEADER - string

Header on which to rate limit the /token endpoint.

API

GOTRUE_API_HOST=localhost
PORT=9999

API_HOST - string

Hostname to listen on.

PORT (no prefix) / API_PORT - number

Port number to listen on. Defaults to 8081.

API_ENDPOINT - string Multi-instance mode only

Controls what endpoint Netlify can access this API on.

REQUEST_ID_HEADER - string

If you wish to inherit a request ID from the incoming request, specify the name in this value.

Database

DATABASE_URL=root@localhost/gotrue

DB_DRIVER - string required

Chooses what dialect of database you want. Must be mysql.

DATABASE_URL (no prefix) / DB_DATABASE_URL - string required

Connection string for the database.

DB_NAMESPACE - string

Adds a prefix to all table names.

Migrations Note

Migrations are not applied automatically, so you will need to run them after you've built gotrue.

  • If built locally: ./gotrue migrate
  • Using Docker: docker run --rm gotrue gotrue migrate

Logging

LOG_LEVEL=debug # available without GOTRUE prefix (exception)
GOTRUE_LOG_FILE=/var/log/go/gotrue.log

LOG_LEVEL - string

Controls what log levels are output. Choose from panic, fatal, error, warn, info, or debug. Defaults to info.
