Passport-microsoft

Passport strategy for authenticating with Microsoft Graph using the OAuth 2.0 API.

This module lets you authenticate using Microsoft, in your Node.js applications.
By plugging into Passport, Microsoft authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.

Install

Install via npm

$ npm install passport-microsoft

Usage

Configure Strategy

The microsoft authentication strategy authenticates users using a microsoft account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which accepts these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well as options specifying a client ID, client secret, and callback URL.

The consumer key and secret are obtained by creating an application at Microsoft's developer site.

    var MicrosoftStrategy = require('passport-microsoft').Strategy;
    passport.use(new MicrosoftStrategy({
        clientID: 'applicationidfrommicrosoft',
        clientSecret: 'applicationsecretfrommicrosoft',
        callbackURL: "http://localhost:3000/auth/microsoft/callback"
      },
      function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
        User.findOrCreate({ userId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
          return done(err, user);
        });
      }
    ));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'microsoft' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

    app.get('/auth/microsoft',
      passport.authenticate('microsoft'));

    app.get('/auth/microsoft/callback', 
      passport.authenticate('microsoft', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
      function(req, res) {
        // Successful authentication, redirect home.
        res.redirect('/');
      });
