@typeauth/api v0.0.6

Typescript typeauth library

@typeauth/api-node is a TypeScript library that simplifies the authentication process for your API applications running in V8 runtime. It's a wrapper around the authentication API endpoint.

Features

• Simple and intuitive API for authentication
• Customizable options for initialization
• Support for custom token headers
• Telemetry data collection (can be disabled)
• Customizable opetion for retry and delay
• Comprehensive error handling and documentation references

Installation

You can install typeauth using npm:

npm install @typeauth/api

Usage

First, import the typeauth class from the library:

import { typeauth } from "@typeauth/api";

Then, initialize the typeauth instance with your desired options:

const typeauth = new typeauth({
  appId: "YOUR_APP_ID",
  // Optional configuration options
  tokenHeader: "Authorization",
  disableTelemetry: false,
  maxRetries: 5,
  retryDelay: 2000,
});

To authenticate a request, call the authenticate method with the request object:

export default {
  async fetch(request, env, ctx) {
    const { result, error } = await typeauth.authenticate(req);

    if (error) {
      console.error(error.message);
      return new Response(JSON.stringify({ error: "Unauthorized" }), {
        status: 401,
        headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
      });
    }

    // Protected route logic
    return new Response(JSON.stringify({ message: "Access granted" }), {
      status: 200,
      headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
    });
  },
};

Configuration Options

The typeauth constructor accepts an options object with the following properties:

• appId (required): Your typeauth application ID.
• tokenHeader (optional): The name of the header that contains the authentication token. Defaults to 'Authorization'.
• disableTelemetry (optional): Set to true to disable telemetry data collection. Defaults to false.
• maxRetries (optional): The number of tries in case the typeauth API is not responding. Defaults to 3.
• retryDelay (optional): // The number of milisendseconds before send another requests. Defauls to 1000.

Error Handling

The authenticate method returns an object with either a result property (on success) or an error property (on failure). The error object contains the following properties:

• message: A description of the error.
• docs: A URL to the relevant documentation page for more information about the error.

Make sure to handle errors appropriately in your application logic.
