Passport-Flickr
Passport strategy for authenticating with Flickr using the OAuth 1.0a API.
Installation
$ npm install passport-flickr
Usage
Configure Strategy
The Flickr authentication strategy authenticates users using a Flickr account and
OAuth tokens. The strategy requires a verify
callback, which accepts these
credentials and calls done
providing a user, as well as options
specifying a
consumer key, consumer secret, and callback URL.
passport.use(new FlickrStrategy({
consumerKey: FLICKR_CONSUMER_KEY,
consumerSecret: FLICKR_CONSUMER_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/flickr/callback"
},
function(token, tokenSecret, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ flickrId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Authenticate Requests
Use passport.authenticate()
, specifying the 'flickr'
strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/flickr',
passport.authenticate('flickr'),
function(req, res){
// The request will be redirected to Flickr for authentication, so this
// function will not be called.
});
app.get('/auth/flickr/callback',
passport.authenticate('flickr', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
