Readme
{authmosphere}
is a library to support and test OAuth 2.0 workflows in JavaScript projects.
It's implemented in TypeScript which improves the development experience via implicit documentation with types and first-class IDE support. The library itself is transpiled to JavaScript (ES6) so there is no need for a TypeScript compiler to use authmosphere in JavaScript projects.
The following OAuth flows are supported:
The Authmosphere JavaScript API supports:
TokenCache
service to manage access tokensgetAccessToken
- helper to request access tokensgetTokenInfo
- helper to validate access tokensFor a comprehensive documentation checkout out the API documentation.
import { TokenCache, OAuthGrantType } from 'authmosphere';
const oAuthConfig = {
grantType: OAuthGrantType.CLIENT_CREDENTIALS_GRANT,
accessTokenEndpoint: 'https://example.com/access_token',
credentialsDir: './credentialsDir'
};
const tokenConfig = {
'service-foo': ['foo.read', 'foo.write'],
'service-bar': ['bar.read']
};
// create a new TokenCache instance
const tokenCache = new TokenCache(tokenConfig, oAuthConfig);
// request and resolve a token from the cache
tokenCache
.get('service-foo') // needs to match with a key from 'tokenConfig'
.then((token) => { /* ...use the token... */ });
import { authenticationMiddleware, requireScopesMiddleware } from 'authmosphere';
// extract and validate access token (authorization header)
// and reject requests without valid access token
app.use(authenticationMiddleware({ tokenInfoEndpoint: 'https://example.com/token_validation' });
// only allow access for requests with tokens that have scopeA and scopeB
app.get('/secured/route', requireScopesMiddleware(['scopeA', 'scopeB']), (request, response) => {
// handle request
});
