Write a Real World Example for Auth

[DimuthuMadushan]

Description:
Currently, there is an example in the Ballerina auth repository that utilizes the LDAP user store. We need to add another example to the auth module, preferably one that incorporates file user store with scopes.

@ThisaruGuruge @DimuthuMadushan I am trying to setup few things and giving a try to execute APIs. Got some strange issue - /foo/bar works without any issue, whereas /accounts/account not...

GitHub workflow to test my code - https://github.com/harshalkh/module-ballerina-auth/blob/master/.github/workflows/ballerina.yml
Any help that you can provide?

Hi @harshalkh,

It's great to see you working on this. I went through your code and noticed that you forgot to enable SSL in the HTTP listener, which might be causing the issue. To fix this, you can set up the SSL certificate and key using the secureSocket field in the listener configuration. You can find more information in the SSL/TLS example.

I also recommend adding Ballerina tests to make it easy to test your APIs. It's pretty straightforward, and it will make your example more complete and practical. To learn more about Ballerina testing, check out this short YouTube video series: Ballerina Testing Video Series

@DimuthuMadushan as per suggestion I have enabled SSL as well as added test cases. Still not able to figure out where it's failing. Can you pls refer above links and suggest?
After enabling debug below is error

time=2023-10-13T21:10:02.266Z level=DEBUG module=ballerina/auth message="File user store values are not provided or not properly configured."

UPDATE- able to get it running now after adding Config.toml in test folder as well
