passport-cloudvisio v0.1.0

Passport.js authentication for Cloudvisio

Passport strategy for authenticating with Cloudvisio using the OAuth 2.0 API.

This module lets you authenticate using Cloudvisio in your Node.js applications.

By plugging into Passport, Cloudvisio authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.

Install

npm install passport-cloudvisio

Usage

Configure Strategy

The Cloudvisio authentication strategy authenticates users using a Cloudvisio account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which accepts these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well as options specifying a client ID, client secret, and callback URL.

passport.use(new CloudvisioOAuth2Strategy({
	clientID: CLIENT_ID,
	clientSecret: CLIENT_SECRET,
	callbackURL: "https://www.example.net/auth/cloudvisio/callback"
	},
	function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
	User.findOrCreate({ providerId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
		return done(err, user);
	});
	}
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'cloudvisio' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/auth/cloudvisio',
	passport.authenticate('cloudvisio'));

app.get('/auth/cloudvisio/callback',
	passport.authenticate('cloudvisio', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
	function(req, res) {
	// Successful authentication, redirect home.
	res.redirect('/');
	});
