= Kotlin Configuration
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Spring Security Kotlin configuration has been available since Spring Security 5.3.
 | 
						|
It lets users configure Spring Security by using a native Kotlin DSL.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[NOTE]
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
Spring Security provides https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-security-samples/tree/main/servlet/spring-boot/kotlin/hello-security[a sample application] to demonstrate the use of Spring Security Kotlin Configuration.
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
== HttpSecurity
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
How does Spring Security know that we want to require all users to be authenticated?
 | 
						|
How does Spring Security know we want to support form-based authentication?
 | 
						|
There is a configuration class (called `SecurityFilterChain`) that is being invoked behind the scenes.
 | 
						|
It is configured with the following default implementation:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[source,kotlin]
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.invoke
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@Bean
 | 
						|
open fun filterChain(http: HttpSecurity): SecurityFilterChain {
 | 
						|
    http {
 | 
						|
        authorizeHttpRequests {
 | 
						|
            authorize(anyRequest, authenticated)
 | 
						|
        }
 | 
						|
        formLogin { }
 | 
						|
        httpBasic { }
 | 
						|
    }
 | 
						|
    return http.build()
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[NOTE]
 | 
						|
Make sure to import the `org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.invoke` function to enable the Kotlin DSL in your class, as the IDE will not always auto-import the method, causing compilation issues.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The default configuration (shown in the preceding example):
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Ensures that any request to our application requires the user to be authenticated
 | 
						|
* Lets users authenticate with form-based login
 | 
						|
* Lets users authenticate with HTTP Basic authentication
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note that this configuration parallels the XML namespace configuration:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[source,xml]
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
<http>
 | 
						|
	<intercept-url pattern="/**" access="authenticated"/>
 | 
						|
	<form-login />
 | 
						|
	<http-basic />
 | 
						|
</http>
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=== Multiple HttpSecurity Instances
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To effectively manage security in an application where certain areas need different protection, we can employ multiple filter chains alongside the `securityMatcher` DSL method.
 | 
						|
This approach allows us to define distinct security configurations tailored to specific parts of the application, enhancing overall application security and control.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
We can configure multiple `HttpSecurity` instances just as we can have multiple `<http>` blocks in XML.
 | 
						|
The key is to register multiple `SecurityFilterChain` ``@Bean``s.
 | 
						|
The following example has a different configuration for URLs that begin with `/api/`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[[multiple-httpsecurity-instances-kotlin]]

						|

    open fun userDetailsService(): UserDetailsService {
 | 
						|
        val users = User.withDefaultPasswordEncoder()
 | 
						|
        val manager = InMemoryUserDetailsManager()
 | 
						|
        manager.createUser(users.username("user").password("password").roles("USER").build())
 | 
						|
        manager.createUser(users.username("admin").password("password").roles("USER","ADMIN").build())

        return manager

 | 
						|
            authorizeHttpRequests {
 | 
						|
                authorize(anyRequest, hasRole("ADMIN"))
 | 
						|
            }
 | 
						|
            httpBasic { }
 | 
						|
        }

        return http.build()
 | 
						|
    }

						|

						|
    @Bean                                                            <4>
 | 
						|
    open fun formLoginFilterChain(http: HttpSecurity): SecurityFilterChain {
 | 
						|
        http {
 | 
						|
            authorizeHttpRequests {
 | 
						|
                authorize(anyRequest, authenticated)
 | 
						|
            }
 | 
						|
            formLogin { }
 | 
						|
        }
 | 
						|
        return http.build()
 | 
						|
    }
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
<1> Configure Authentication as usual.
 | 
						|
<2> Create an instance of `SecurityFilterChain` that contains `@Order` to specify which `SecurityFilterChain` should be considered first.
 | 
						|
<3> The `http.securityMatcher()` states that this `HttpSecurity` is applicable only to URLs that begin with `/api/`.
 | 
						|
<4> Create another instance of `SecurityFilterChain`.
 | 
						|
If the URL does not begin with `/api/`, this configuration is used.
 | 
						|
This configuration is considered after `apiFilterChain`, since it has an `@Order` value after `1` (no `@Order` defaults to last).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=== Choosing `securityMatcher` or `requestMatchers`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A common question is:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> What is the difference between the `http.securityMatcher()` method and `requestMatchers()` used for request authorization (i.e. inside of `http.authorizeHttpRequests()`)?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To answer this question, it helps to understand that each `HttpSecurity` instance used to build a `SecurityFilterChain` contains a `RequestMatcher` to match incoming requests.
 | 
						|
If a request does not match a `SecurityFilterChain` with higher priority (e.g. `@Order(1)`), the request can be tried against a filter chain with lower priority (e.g. no `@Order`).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[NOTE]
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
The matching logic for multiple filter chains is performed by the xref:servlet/architecture.adoc#servlet-filterchainproxy[`FilterChainProxy`].
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The default `RequestMatcher` matches *any request* to ensure Spring Security protects *all requests by default*.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[NOTE]
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
Specifying a `securityMatcher` overrides this default.
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[WARNING]
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
If no filter chain matches a particular request, the request is *not protected* by Spring Security.
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The following example demonstrates a single filter chain that only protects requests that begin with `/secured/`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[[choosing-security-matcher-request-matchers-kotlin]]
 | 
						|

						|
----
 | 
						|
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.invoke
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@Configuration
 | 
						|
@EnableWebSecurity
 | 
						|
class PartialSecurityConfig {
 | 
						|
	@Bean
 | 
						|
	open fun userDetailsService(): UserDetailsService {
 | 
						|
		// ...
 | 
						|
	}

						|

		http {
 |

			securityMatcher("/secured/**")                             <1>
 | 
						|
			authorizeHttpRequests {
 | 
						|
				authorize("/secured/user", hasRole("USER"))            <2>

						|
				authorize("/secured/admin", hasRole("ADMIN"))          <3>

						|
			formLogin { }
 | 
						|
		}
 | 
						|
		return http.build()
 | 
						|
	}
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
<1> Requests that begin with `/secured/` will be protected but any other requests are not protected.
 | 
						|
<2> Requests to `/secured/user` require the `ROLE_USER` authority.
 | 
						|
<3> Requests to `/secured/admin` require the `ROLE_ADMIN` authority.
 | 
						|
<4> Any other requests (such as `/secured/other`) simply require an authenticated user.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[TIP]
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
It is _recommended_ to provide a `SecurityFilterChain` that does not specify any `securityMatcher` to ensure the entire application is protected, as demonstrated in the <<multiple-httpsecurity-instances-kotlin,earlier example>>.
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Notice that the `requestMatchers` method only applies to individual authorization rules.
 | 
						|
Each request listed there must also match the overall `securityMatcher` for this particular `HttpSecurity` instance used to create the `SecurityFilterChain`.
 | 
						|
Using `anyRequest()` in this example matches all other requests within this particular `SecurityFilterChain` (which must begin with `/secured/`).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[NOTE]
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
See xref:servlet/authorization/authorize-http-requests.adoc[Authorize HttpServletRequests] for more information on `requestMatchers`.
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=== `SecurityFilterChain` Endpoints
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Several filters in the `SecurityFilterChain` directly provide endpoints, such as the `UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter` which is set up by `http.formLogin()` and provides the `POST /login` endpoint.
 | 
						|
In the <<choosing-security-matcher-request-matchers-kotlin,above example>>, the `/login` endpoint is not matched by `http.securityMatcher("/secured/**")` and therefore that application would not have any `GET /login` or `POST /login` endpoint.
 | 
						|
Such requests would return `404 Not Found`.
 | 
						|
This is often surprising to users.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Specifying `http.securityMatcher()` affects what requests are matched by that `SecurityFilterChain`.
 | 
						|
However, it does not automatically affect endpoints provided by the filter chain.
 | 
						|
In such cases, you may need to customize the URL of any endpoints you would like the filter chain to provide.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The following example demonstrates a configuration that secures requests that begin with `/secured/` and denies all other requests, while also customizing endpoints provided by the `SecurityFilterChain`:

<1> Requests that begin with `/secured/` will be protected by this filter chain.
 |

<2> Requests that begin with `/secured/` require an authenticated user.

<3> Customize form login to prefix URLs with `/secured/`.
 | 
						|
<4> Customize logout to prefix URLs with `/secured/`.
 | 
						|
<5> All other requests will be denied.

						|
 | 
						|
[NOTE]
 | 
						|
====
 | 
						|
This example customizes the login and logout pages, which disables Spring Security's generated pages.
 | 
						|
You must xref:servlet/authentication/passwords/form.adoc#servlet-authentication-form-custom[provide your own] custom endpoints for `GET /secured/login` and `GET /secured/logout`.
 | 
						|
Note that Spring Security still provides `POST /secured/login` and `POST /secured/logout` endpoints for you.

<1> Begin by configuring authentication settings.
 | 
						|
<2> Define a `SecurityFilterChain` instance with `@Order(1)`, which means that this filter chain will have the highest priority.
 | 
						|
    This filter chain applies only to requests that begin with `/accounts/approvals/`, `/loans/approvals/` or `/credit-cards/approvals/`.
 | 
						|
	Requests to this filter chain require the `ROLE_ADMIN` authority and allow HTTP Basic Authentication.
 | 
						|
<3> Next, create another `SecurityFilterChain` instance with `@Order(2)` which will be considered second.
 | 
						|
    This filter chain applies only to requests that begin with `/accounts/`, `/loans/`, `/credit-cards/`, or `/balances/`.
 | 
						|
	Notice that because this filter chain is second, any requests that include `/approvals/` will match the previous filter chain and will *not* be matched by this filter chain.
 | 
						|
	Requests to this filter chain require the `ROLE_USER` authority.
 | 
						|
	This filter chain does not define any authentication because the next (default) filter chain contains that configuration.
 | 
						|
<4> Lastly, create an additional `SecurityFilterChain` instance without an `@Order` annotation.
 | 
						|
	This configuration will handle requests not covered by the other filter chains and will be processed last (no `@Order` defaults to last).
 | 
						|
	Requests that match `/`, `/user-login`, `/user-logout`, `/notices`, `/contact` and `/register` allow access without authentication.
 | 
						|
	Any other requests require the user to be authenticated to access any URL not explicitly allowed or protected by other filter chains.
