Usage

import (
	"github.com/timandy/go-auth0"
	"github.com/timandy/go-auth0/management"
)

Initialize a new client using a domain, client ID and secret.

m, err := management.New(domain, management.WithClientCredentials(id, secret))
if err != nil {
	// handle err
}

With the management client we can now interact with the Auth0 Management API.

c := &management.Client{
	Name:        auth0.String("Client Name"),
	Description: auth0.String("Long description of client"),
}

err = m.Client.Create(c)
if err != nil {
	// handle err
}

fmt.Printf("Created client %s\n", c.ClientID)

The following Auth0 resources are supported:

Testing

To run the tests use the make test command. This will make use of pre-recorded http interactions found in the recordings folder. To add new recordings run the tests against an Auth0 tenant individually using the following env var AUTH0_HTTP_RECORDINGS=on.

To run the tests against an Auth0 tenant, use the make test-e2e command. Start by creating an M2M app in the tenant, that has been authorized to call the Management API and has all the required permissions.

Then create a local .env file in the management folder with the following settings:

AUTH0_DOMAIN: The Domain of the M2M app
AUTH0_CLIENT_ID: The Client ID of the M2M app
AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET: The Client Secret of the M2M app
AUTH0_DEBUG: Set to true to call the Management API in debug mode, which dumps the HTTP requests and responses to the output
