Introduction

The authenticator-client-mock-js is a simple client service, that mimics the common behaviors of HTTP-based authentication schemes. It does not transmit data over HTTP; it can be merely used for supporting offline/detached testing and development scenarios.

The implementation is designed to be compatible with the vuestrap-client-auth-support Authenticator interface.

How to Use

Install

with yarn:

$ yarn add authenticator-client-mock-js --dev

with npm:

$ npm install authenticator-client-mock-js --save-dev

Compatible with the Client Auth Support Vuestrap

For example:

import Vue from 'vue';
import store from './store'; // your vuex store instance
import router from './router'; // your vue-router instance
import MockAuthenticator from 'authenticator-client-mock-js';
import ClientAuthSupport from 'vuestrap-client-auth-support';

const MockAuth = new MockAuthenticator({ ttl: 5 * 60 * 1000 }); // expire session in 5 mins

Vue.use(ClientAuthSupport, {
  store,
  router,
  authenticator: MockAuth,
  persistType: 'local',
  tokenName: 'user-auth-token',
});

API

Constructor

Constructor Options

Name	Required?	Description
debug	No	Set to `true` to log debug messages during utilization. Defaults to `false`.
ttl	No	Defaults to `0` (expires immediately).

Instance

Instance Properties

Name	Type	Description
ttl	Number	The configured `ttl` before the generated token expires. (`0` = expires immediately, `-1` = never expires, `<millis>` = any positive integer)
state	Object	The mock state that is mutated for simulation purposes.

Instance Functions

All functions return Promises (except resetState).

Name	Parameters	Returns	Description
authenticateUser	creds = `{ username: <username>, password: <password> }`	`{ token: '<the_token>', expires_at: <timestamp_in_seconds> }`	Performs a mock authentication request, that always succeeds if a `username` is provided. When authentication is granted, the service returns a user auth token, with an expiration timestamp per the configured `ttl`.
expireUser	token = `'<the_token>'`	`{ success: true }`
fetchUserInfo	token = `'<the_token>'`
resetState	(none)	(void)	Resets the instance `state` to the default values.
