passport-zebedee

Passport strategy for authenticating with Zebedee.

This module lets you authenticate using Zebedee in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Zebedee authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.

Install

$ npm install passport-zabedee

Usage

Register Application

The Zebedee strategy authenticates users using their Zebedee account. Before your application can make use of Zebedee's authentication system, you must first register your app to use OAuth 2.0 with Zebedee APIs. Once registered, a client ID and secret will be issued which are used by Zebedee to identify your app.

Configure Strategy

The Zebedee authentication strategy authenticates users using a Zebedee account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The client ID and secret obtained when creating an application are supplied as options when creating the strategy. The strategy also requires a verify callback, which receives the access token and optional refresh token, as well as profile which contains the authenticated user's Zebedee's profile. The verify callback must call cb providing a user to complete authentication.

var ZebedeeStrategy = require('passport-zebedee').Strategy;

passport.use(new ZebedeeStrategy({
    clientID: ZEBEDEE_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: ZEBEDEE_CLIENT_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://www.example.com/auth/zebedee/callback"
  },
  function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, cb) {
    User.findOrCreate({ zebedeeId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return cb(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Define Routes

Two routes are needed in order to allow users to log in with their Zebedee account. The first route redirects the user to Zebedee, where they will authenticate:

app.get('/login/zebedee',
  passport.authenticate('zebedee', { scope: ['user'] }));

The second route processes the authentication response and logs the user in, after Zebedee redirects the user back to the app:

app.get('/oauth2/redirect/zebedee',
  passport.authenticate('zebedee', { failureRedirect: '/login', failureMessage: true }),
  function(req, res) {
    res.redirect('/');
  });
