eazy-auth

Easy auth stuff \w redux

Battery included but extractable package to automate auth boring stuff.

The stack is redux, react for UI, redux-saga for side effects and react-router-dom for routing.

Example App

or

npm install eazy-auth --save

Cheat sheet

// Redux
// Make the auth reducer using auth as reducer key
import { makeAuthReducer } from 'eazy-auth'
const rootReducer = combineReducers({
  auth: makeAuthReducer(),
})

// Redux saga
// Make the auth flow (managed using redux-saga)
// you get authFlow a saga to fork to bootstrap auth
// authCall a version of redux-saga call function but with auth token curried
import { makeAuthFlow } from 'eazy-auth'
const { authFlow, authCall } = makeAuthFlow({
  loginCall: credentials => /* promise that resolve ({ access_token, refresh_token )}  */,
  refreshTokenCall: refreshToken => /* promise that resolve refreshed ({ access_token, refresh_token )} */,
  meCall: token => /* promise that resolve object with user data  */,
})

function *mainSaga() {
  // Bootstrap the auth
  // when user logged in for the first time eazy-auth save the tokens in local storage
  // when user return to app eazy-auth take tokens from local storage and perform a me call
  // (try to refresh tokens if function is provided) if all is ok user data are stored in redux
  // and update tokens in local storage if needed otherwise local storage is cleared
  yield fork(authFlow)

  // authCall is a enhance version of redux-saga call https://redux-saga.js.org/docs/api/#callfn-args
  // but it call the function with the access token curried so you can do authenticated api call
  // plus if the api reject and the exception contains a status key with 401 eazy-auht try to refresh token and
  // retrying the call if fail again or no refresh function is provided logout and clear state and local storage
  try {
    const data = yield call(token => Api.fetchUser(token), action.payload.id)
    yield put({type: "FETCH_SUCCEEDED", data})
  } catch (error) {
    yield put({type: "FETCH_FAILED", error})
  }

  // \\\TIP///
  // for call api i personally use superagent https://github.com/visionmedia/superagent
  // for automate the injection of token you can use a helper like that or do a similar stuff \w other fetching libraries
  const withToken = (token, baseRequest) =>
    (token ? baseRequest.set('Authorization', `Bearer ${token}`) : baseRequest)

  const fetchUser = token => id =>
    withToken(token, request.get(`/api/users/${id}`))
}

// React
// What you get?

// Action creators
import {
  // Login using credentials
  // login({ username, password })
  login,
  // Logout and clear local storage
  // logout()
  logout,
  // Clear login erro in state
  clearLoginError,
  // A helper to update user in state
  // updateUser({ username, age, ... })
  updateUser,
} from 'eazy-auth'

// Selectors
import {
  isLoginLoading,
  getLoginError,
  getAuthUser,
  getAuthAccessToken,
  getAuthRefreshToken,
} from 'eazy-auth'

// ... And if you want o covenient high order component for login
import { withAuthLogin } from 'eazy-auth'

let Login = ({ handleSubmit, credentials: { email, password }, error, loading }) => (
  <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
    <div>
      <input type='email' {...email} />
    </div>
    <div>
      <input type='password' {...password} />
    </div>
    <div>
      <input type='submit' />
    </div>
    {loading && <div>Login...</div>}
    {error && <div>Bad credentials</div>}
  </form>
)

login = withAuthLogin({
  // Defaults
  credentials: ['email', 'password'],
  shouldclearErrorOnChange: true,
})(Login)


// React router v4
import { AuthRoute } from 'eazy-auth'
