Quick Start - Vault Vision

This Vault Vision setup guide will get your user authentication and login management system up and running in less than a minute.

Create an Account at Vault Vision

Navigate to Register and create an account.

Try out your development sandbox

Each Vault Vision account is provisioned a development sandbox Tenant during registration. You will see the image below right after you signup or you can access it again by just visiting the Management Panel:

Run your own example application locally

We provide example auth applications written in Node, Go and Python with more to come.

Note

Our system is built on open protocols that support every programming language. Get in touch with us if you would like support integrating with a programming language we don’t currently provide an example for.

Get your configuration values

Access the development sandbox popin again by visiting the Management Panel and click the “Display .env file” button to get your configuration values for our open source example projects. Download or copy it locally into a file named .env, we will use it in the examples we configure next:

Sandbox

Run the Go auth example

Get the source code from the go-auth-example repository:

git clone https://github.com/vaultvision/go-auth-example
cd go-auth-example

Configure the app by placing the .env file we obtained previously into the root of the repo folder:

vi .env

Run the example on localhost:

go run main.go

Visit http://localhost:8090 in your browser.

Run the Node auth example

Get the source code from the node-auth-example repository:

git clone https://github.com/vaultvision/node-auth-example
cd node-auth-example

Configure the app by placing the .env file we obtained previously into the root of the repo folder:

vi .env

Install dependencies:

npm install

Run the example on localhost:

npm run dev

Visit http://localhost:8090 in your browser.

Run the Python auth example

Get the source code from the python-auth-example repository:

git clone https://github.com/vaultvision/python-auth-example
cd python-auth-example

Configure the app by placing the .env file we obtained previously into the root of the repo folder:

vi .env

Install dependencies:

python -m venv .venv  # Or python3 for some systems
.venv/bin/pip install --upgrade pip
.venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the example on localhost:

.venv/bin/python app.py

Visit http://localhost:8090 in your browser.

Run the React js boilerplate example

React application user authentication setup

npm run start

Run the HTML boilerplate example

npm run start

Testing your local example

With your local example running you can now see how you can use the same credentials to login to multiple applications hosted on different domains written in entirely different programming languages. Feel free to explore multiple programming languages using the same .env file.
