A simple user role and scope check plugin to protect endpoints for Fastify.
fastify-guard is designed to protect API endpoints by checking authenticated user roles and/or scopes if they met. guard is the registered Fastify decorator and can be used in anywhere.
Inspired by express-jwt-permissions.
Note: Fastify v4 support is shipped with v2.0.0.

const fastify = require('fastify')()
const fastifyGuard = require('fastify-guard')
fastify.register(
fastifyGuard,
{
errorHandler: (result, req, reply) => {
return reply.send('you are not allowed to call this route')
}
}
)
// this route can only be called by users who has 'cto' and 'admin' roles
fastify.get(
'/admin',
{ preHandler: [fastify.guard.role(['cto', 'admin'])] },
(req, reply) => {
// 'user' should already be defined in req object
reply.send(req.user)
}
)
// this route can only be called by users who has 'admin' or 'editor' role
fastify.get(
'/',
{ preHandler: [fastify.guard.role('admin', 'editor')] },
(req, reply) => {
// 'user' should already be defined in req object
reply.send(req.user)
}

/*
http://localhost:3000 -> will print out below result if the authenticated user does not have 'admin' role
you are not allowed to call this route
