Go-Guardian
Go-Guardian is a golang library that provides a simple, clean, and idiomatic way to create powerful modern API and web authentication.
Overview
Go-Guardian sole purpose is to authenticate requests, which it does through an extensible set of authentication methods known as strategies.
Go-Guardian does not mount routes or assume any particular database schema, which maximizes flexibility and allows decisions to be made by the developer.
The API is simple: you provide go-guardian a request to authenticate, and go-guardian invoke strategies to authenticate end-user request.
Strategies provide callbacks for controlling what occurs when authentication should
succeeds or fails.
Installing
Using go-guardian is easy. First, use go get to install the latest version of the library.
go get github.com/shaj13/go-guardian/v2
Next, include go-guardian in your application:
import "github.com/shaj13/go-guardian/v2"

- provides top trends and traditional authentication methods.
- provides two-factor authentication and one-time password as defined in RFC-4226 and RFC-6238
