React Redux JWT Authentication & Authorization example

Build a React Redux Token Authentication example with JWT, LocalStorage, React Router, Axios and Bootstrap:

• JWT Authentication Flow for User Signup & User Login
• Project Structure for React Redux JWT Authentication, LocalStorage, Router, Axios
• Working with Redux Actions, Reducers, Store for Application state
• Creating React Components with Form Validation
• React Components for accessing protected Resources (Authorization)
• Dynamic Navigation Bar in React App

User Registration and User Login Flow

For JWT Authentication, we’re gonna call 2 endpoints:

• POST api/auth/signup for User Registration
• POST api/auth/signin for User Login

The following flow shows you an overview of Requests and Responses that React Client will make or receive. This React Client must add a JWT to HTTP Header before sending request to protected resources.

  const user = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user'));
  if (user && user.accessToken) {
    // return { Authorization: 'Bearer ' + user.accessToken }; // for Spring Boot back-end
    return { 'x-access-token': user.accessToken };             // for Node.js Express back-end
  } else {
    return {};
  }
}
