This module is created based on [passport-facebook-token](https://github.com/drudge/passport-facebook-token) and [passport-google-oauth2](https://github.com/jaredhanson/passport-google-oauth2). This module lets you authenticate using Google in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Google authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports [Connect](http://www.senchalabs.org/connect/)-style middleware, including [Express](http://expressjs.com/). ## Installation $ npm install passport-google-oauth-token ## Usage ### Configure Strategy The Google authentication strategy authenticates users using a Google account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a `verify` callback, which accepts these credentials and calls `cb` providing a user, as well as `options` specifying an app ID and app secret. ```js const GoogleOauthTokenStrategy = require('passport-google-oauth-token'); passport.use(new GoogleOauthTokenStrategy({ clientID: GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID, clientSecret: GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET, }, (accessToken, refreshToken, profile, cb) => { User.findOrCreate({ googleId: profile.id }, (error, user) => { return done(error, user); }); })); ``` ### Authenticate Requests Use `passport.authenticate()`, specifying the `'google-oauth-token'` strategy, to authenticate requests. ```js app.post('/auth/google/token', passport.authenticate('google-oauth-token'), (req, res) => { // do something with req.user res.send(req.user ? 200 : 401); }, ); ``` ### Client Requests Clients can send requests to routes that use passport-google-oauth-token authentication using `query parms`, `body`, or `HTTP headers`. Clients will need to transmit the `access_token` and optionally the `refresh_token` that are received from google after login. ## Options | Field | Description | Default Value | | ------------------ | --------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | | clientID | Google's client id | | | clientSecret | Google's client secret | | | tokenURL | Google's oauth2 token url | https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token | | profileURL | Google's scope profile url | https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/userinfo | | authorizationURL | Google's oauth2 authorization url | https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth | | tokenURLVersion | Version of token url | v4 | | userinfoURLVersion | Version of profile url | v3 | | authURLVersion | Version of authorization url | v2 | ## Profile Example ```js { provider: 'google', id: '1234', displayName: 'Alpha', name: { familyName: 'Lucifer', givenName: 'Alpha', }, emails: [ { value: 'alphanolucifer@gmail.com', verified: true, }, ], photos: [ { value: 'https://google.com', }, ], _json: {}, _raw: {}, } ``` ## License The MIT License (MIT) Copyright (c) 2015 Nicholas Penree Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
