Common package for Azure Communication services.
This package contains common code for Azure Communication Service libraries.
npm install @azure/communication-common
A CommunicationTokenCredential
authenticates a user with Communication Services, such as Chat or Calling. It optionally provides an auto-refresh mechanism to ensure a continuously stable authentication state during communications.
It is up to you the developer to first create valid user tokens with the Azure Communication Administration library. Then you use these tokens to create a AzureCommunicationTokenCredential
.
CommunicationTokenCredential
is only the interface, please always use the AzureCommunicationTokenCredential
constructor to create a credential and take advantage of the built-in refresh logic.
const tokenCredential = new AzureCommunicationTokenCredential(
"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjM2MDB9.adM-ddBZZlQ1WlN3pdPBOF5G4Wh9iZpxNP_fSvpF4cWs"
);
Here we assume that we have a function fetchTokenFromMyServerForUser
that makes a network request to retrieve a token string for a user. We pass it into the credential to fetch a token for Bob from our own server. Our server would use the Azure Communication Administration library to issue tokens.
const tokenCredential = new AzureCommunicationTokenCredential({
tokenRefresher: async () => fetchTokenFromMyServerForUser("bob@contoso.com")
});
Setting refreshProactively
to true will call your tokenRefresher
function when the token is close to expiry.
const tokenCredential = new AzureCommunicationTokenCredential({
tokenRefresher: async () => fetchTokenFromMyServerForUser("bob@contoso.com"),
refreshProactively: true
});
Passing initialToken
is an optional optimization to skip the first call to tokenRefresher
. You can use this to separate the boot from your application from subsequent token refresh cycles.
const tokenCredential = new AzureCommunicationTokenCredential({
tokenRefresher: async () => fetchTokenFromMyServerForUser("bob@contoso.com"),
refreshProactively: true,
token:
"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjM2MDB9.adM-ddBZZlQ1WlN3pdPBOF5G4Wh9iZpxNP_fSvpF4cWs"
});
