Auth0 Springboot Authentication Library

A comprehensive Java library for Auth0 JWT authentication with built-in DPoP (Demonstration of Proof-of-Possession) and Multi-Custom Domain (MCD) support. This project provides Spring Boot integration for secure API development.

This repository contains multiple modules designed for different use cases:

auth0-springboot-api (Published)
    ↳ bundles auth0-api-java (Internal - not published separately)
    ↳ examples in auth0-springboot-api-playground

If you're building a Spring Boot application, use the Spring Boot integration:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.auth0</groupId>
    <artifactId>auth0-springboot-api</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0-beta.1</version>
</dependency>

It provides:

• JWT validation with Auth0 JWKS integration
• DPoP proof validation per RFC 9449
• Multiple Custom Domain (MCD) support — static domain lists, or dynamic resolution at request time
• Extensible caching — pluggable AuthCache interface for distributed backends (Redis, Memcached)
• Flexible authentication strategies

• Spring Boot Integration Guide - Complete setup and usage guide
• Spring Boot Examples - Code examples and patterns
• Playground Application - Running example

This project uses Gradle with a multi-module setup:

# Build all modules
./gradlew build

# Build module
./gradlew :auth0-springboot-api:build

# Run tests
./gradlew test

# Run playground application
./gradlew :auth0-springboot-api-playground:bootRun

Spring Boot integration module is published as a public artifact:

The core library (auth0-api-java) is bundled as an internal dependency within the Spring Boot module and is not published separately.
