Passport-CloudFoundry

Passport strategy for authenticating with Cloud Foundry open PaaS using the OAuth 2.0 API.

Installation

$ npm install passport-cloudfoundry

Usage

Configure Strategy

The CloudFoundry authentication strategy authenticates users using an CloudFoundry account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which accepts these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well as options specifying a client ID, client secret, and callback URL.

passport.use(new CloudFoundryStrategy({
    clientID: CF_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: CF_CLIENT_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/cloudfoundry/callback"
  },
  function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
    User.findOrCreate({ email: profile.user }, function (err, user) {
      return done(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'cloudfoundry' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/auth/cloudfoundry',
  passport.authenticate('cloudfoundry'),
  function(req, res){
    // The request will be redirected to CloudFoundry for authentication, so
    // this function will not be called.
  });

app.get('/auth/cloudfoundry/callback',
  passport.authenticate('cloudfoundry', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
  function(req, res) {
    // Successful authentication, redirect home.
    res.redirect('/');
  });
