Provider / Consumer Walkthrough

Interacting with this provider directly doesn't showcase it's oauth2 functionality.

1. Visiting / takes you to a blank page... not too interesting
2. /login will ask you for credentials.

• If you login before an oauth request you are taken directly to permission dialog when that request happens
• Otherwise you will be redirected here and then to the permission dialog

3. /account will allow you to see your user details

API

Below is a mapping of the API in the context of a passport-strategy

• /dialog/authorize is the authorizationURL.
• /oauth/token is the tokenURL
• /api/userinfo is a protected resource that requires user permission
• /api/clientinfo is a protected resource that requires a token generated from the client's id and secret
• Usage of scope is not demonstrated in this example.

The standalone usable resources are

• GET / nothing
• GET /login lets you login, presented by /dialog/authorize if you haven't logged in
• POST /login processes the login
• GET /logout lets you logout
• GET /account lets your view your user info

And then some internal resources that are of no concern for standalone users or consumers

• POST /dialog/authorize/decision, processes the allow / deny
