@loopback/mock-oauth2-provider NPM

This package provides an app which mocks the OAuth2 authorization flow login with a social app like facebook, google, etc

Endpoints :
- /oauth/dialog - opens the oauth2 flow, redirects to login page
- /login - loads the login page
- /login_submit - submit username , password
- /oauth/token - returns a token in exchange for a valid authorization code
- /verify - verifies token

With the above endpoints, this mock can be used for tests to attain below oauth2 stages

stage 1 : Authorization code grant - Get access code
- 1 invoke oauth2 dialog end point /oauth/dialog with callback url
- 2 redirects to mock auth server login page /login
- 3 successful login with mock server redirects to callback url with access code
stage 2 : Authentication - Exchange access code for access token
- 4 invoke with access code, /oauth/token to get access token
- 5 auth server returns access token, /verify can be used to verify access token and get user profile
