Advanced tools
solid-client-authn-browser is a library designed to authenticate web apps (in the browser) with Solid identity servers.
The main documentation is at the root of the repository.
Our JavaScript Client Libraries use relatively modern JavaScript features that
will work in all commonly used browsers, except Internet Explorer. Additionally,
@inrupt/solid-client-authn-browser currently expects the Node.js events
module. Webpack versions before version 5 used to add a polyfill for that by
default; if you do not use Webpack, or use version 5 or later, please install
the events npm package as well.
solid-client-authn-browser is based on oidc-client-js, forked in
@inrupt/oidc-client after the original library stopped being supported.
However, the latter lacks some features that are necessary to provide the developer experience we specifically want for the Solid ecosystem, so we developed oidc-client-ext to add these features.
@inrupt/solid-client-authn-browseris part of a family open source JavaScript libraries designed to support developers building Solid applications.
@inrupt/solid-client allows developers to access data and manage permissions on data stored in Solid Pods.
@inrupt/solid-client-authn allows developers to authenticate against a Solid server. This is necessary when the resources on your Pod are not public.
@inrupt/solid-common-vocab-rdf allows developers to build interoperable apps by reusing well-known vocabularies. These libraries provide vocabulary terms as constants that you just have to import.
If you have questions about working with Solid or just want to share what you’re working on, visit the Solid forum. The Solid forum is a good place to meet the rest of the community.
The solid-client-authn libraries are compatible with NSS 5.3.X and higher.
