promisify-auth0-js

Promisifying wrapper around the Client Side Javascript toolkit for Auth0 API

Install

From npm

npm i --save promisify-auth0

Basic Usage

The package is mirroring the original auth0.js API. The only difference is that instead of NodeJS callback function style, promisify-auth0 allows you to get Promise<T> instead which help avoid callback hell and play nicely with async/await.

You will still need to create an original Auth0 objects and inject them into the corresponding wrapping types, something like this:

import { Authentication as NativeAuthentication } from 'auth0-js';
import { Authentication } from 'promisify-auth0';

const nativeAuthentication: NativeAuthentication = ...;
const authentication = new Authentication(nativeAuthentication);

const options = { realm: '...', audience: '...', username: '...', password: '...', scope: '...' };

authentication.login(options)
  .then(loginResult => {
    // ...
  })
  .catch(caughtError => {
    // ...
  });

The last piece of code could be rewritten in a more imperative style while maintaining the asyncronous execution model.

try {
  const loginResult = await authentication.login(options);
  // ...
} catch (caughtError) {
  // ...
}
