passport-rescour

Passport strategy for authenticating with REscour using the OAuth 2.0 API.

This module lets you authenticate using REscour in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, REscour authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.

Install

$ npm install passport-rescour

Usage

Configure Strategy

The REscour authentication strategy authenticates users using a REscour 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 an app ID, app secret, callback URL.

passport.use(new REscourStrategy({
    clientID: RESCOUR_SSO_KEY,
    clientSecret: RESCOUR_SSO_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://localhost:3000/auth/rescour/callback"
  },
  function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
    User.findOrCreate({ ssoId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return done(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

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

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/oauth/authorize',
  passport.authenticate('rescour'));

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

Tests

$ npm test
