node-aptoma-plugin-auth

node-aptoma-plugin-auth

This is a NodeJS adaptation of the Aptoma Plugin API's auth module, originally implemented in PHP.

It is exposed as an express compatible request handler. The intention is that you attach it to any endpoint you wish.

For more details, see the original module.

Example usage

var app = require('express')();
var auth = require('node-aptoma-plugin-auth');

app.get('/auth', auth(
  'example-app',
  'DrPublish',
  'http://drpubapp.example.com/'
));

app.listen(8080);

Prerequisites

The mcrypt library is used for encryption and decryption, and must be installed for this module to work.

Example install command for Ubuntu:

apt-get install libmcrypt4 libmcrypt-dev
