atlas-node-multipass v1.0.1

atlas-node-multipass

OpenMRSID provides a mechanism for single sign-on known as Multipass. Multipass uses an AES encrypted JSON hash and node-multipass provides functions for encoding and decoding these tokens.

Installation

Usage

Multipass is constructed with two arguments: an API key and a site key.

  var Multipass = require('atlas-node-multipass');

  // Construct the Multipass encoder / decoder
  var multipass = new Multipass('API-KEY', 'SITE-KEY');

  // Encode a Multipass token
  var token = multipass.encode({ email: 'test@example.com', name: 'test', expires: '2011-07-06 23:28:40Z' });

  // Decode a Multipass token
  var obj = multipass.decode(token);

encode(obj)

This function encodes the required obj argument. This argument is a JavaScript object and contains the data that you want to pass to Atlas.

This function will return a string. If an error occurs, the undefined will be returned.

decode(token)

This function decodes the required token argument. This argument is an encoded Multipass token and a JavaScript object is returned. If decoding is not successful, undefined is returned.
