@types/oauth2-server

What is @types/oauth2-server?

@types/oauth2-server provides TypeScript type definitions for the oauth2-server package, which is a complete, compliant, and well-tested module for implementing an OAuth2 server in Node.js.

What are @types/oauth2-server's main functionalities?

Authorization Code Grant

This code demonstrates how to set up an authorization endpoint using the Authorization Code Grant type. The endpoint will handle authorization requests and return an authorization code.

const OAuth2Server = require('oauth2-server');
const Request = OAuth2Server.Request;
const Response = OAuth2Server.Response;

const oauth = new OAuth2Server({
  model: require('./model')
});

app.post('/authorize', (req, res) => {
  const request = new Request(req);
  const response = new Response(res);

  oauth.authorize(request, response)
    .then((code) => {
      res.json(code);
    }).catch((err) => {
      res.status(err.code || 500).json(err);
    });
});

Token Grant

This code demonstrates how to set up a token endpoint. The endpoint will handle token requests and return an access token.

app.post('/token', (req, res) => {
  const request = new Request(req);
  const response = new Response(res);

  oauth.token(request, response)
    .then((token) => {
      res.json(token);
    }).catch((err) => {
      res.status(err.code || 500).json(err);
    });
});

Token Authentication

This code demonstrates how to set up a secure endpoint that requires token authentication. The endpoint will return secure data if the token is valid.

app.get('/secure', (req, res) => {
  const request = new Request(req);
  const response = new Response(res);

  oauth.authenticate(request, response)
    .then((token) => {
      res.json({ message: 'Secure data' });
    }).catch((err) => {
      res.status(err.code || 500).json(err);
    });
});

oauth2orize

oauth2orize is a toolkit for implementing OAuth2 servers in Node.js. It provides a more modular approach compared to oauth2-server, allowing developers to customize the authorization and token issuance processes more granularly.

node-oauth2-server

node-oauth2-server is another implementation of an OAuth2 server for Node.js. It is similar to oauth2-server but offers a different API and some additional features like support for refresh tokens and more extensive error handling.

simple-oauth2

simple-oauth2 is a library for implementing OAuth2 clients in Node.js. While it focuses on the client side of OAuth2, it can be used in conjunction with an OAuth2 server to handle token management and authentication.
