Passport-Token-Google

This is an updated version of Passport-Google-Token

Passport strategy for authenticating with Google access tokens using the OAuth 2.0 API.

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

Installation

$ npm install --save passport-token-google

Usage

Configure Strategy

The Google authentication strategy authenticates users using a Google 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 app ID and app secret.

const GoogleStrategy = require('passport-token-google').Strategy

passport.serializeUser((user, done) => {
    done(null, user);
});

passport.deserializeUser((user, done) => {
    done(null, user);
});

passport.use(new GoogleStrategy({
    clientID: GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET
  },
  function(idToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
    fetchGoogleUser(profile, idToken)
      .then((user) => done(null, user))
      .catch((err) => {
        // Handle the error
        done(null, {})
      });
  }
));
Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate('google-token') to authenticate requests.

router.post('/auth/google/token', passport.authenticate('google-token'), someFunction);

GET request need to have id_token sent in either the query string or set as a header.
If a POST is being preformed they can also be included in the body of the request like:

const body = { id_token: data.tokenId }
