github-gatekeeper v1.0.2

OAuth GitHub Gatekeeper

API

1. Exchage temporary code for a token

   GET /api/auth?code=<CODE>

OAuth Steps

Also see the documentation on Github.

1. Redirect users to request GitHub access.

   GET https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize

2. GitHub redirects back to your site including a temporary code you need for the next step.

   You can grab it like so:

   const params = new URLSearchParams(location.search)
   const code = params.get('code')

3. Request the actual token using your instance of Gatekeeper, which knows your OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET.

   const GITHUB_GATEKEEPER_URL = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'
     ? 'http://localhost:3000/api/auth'
     : 'https://gatekeeper.YOUNAME.now.sh/api/auth'
   
   const url = new URL(GITHUB_GATEKEEPER_URL)
   url.searchParams.set('code', code)
   try {
     const res = await fetch(url)
     if (res.ok) {
       const {token} = await res.json()
       console.log(token)
     }
   } catch (e) {
     // bad code
   }
