rack-openid2

Rack::OpenID

---

Provides a more HTTPish API around the ruby-openid library.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add rack-openid2

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install rack-openid2

Usage

You trigger an OpenID request similar to HTTP authentication. From your app, return a "401 Unauthorized" and a "WWW-Authenticate" header with the identifier you would like to validate.

On competition, the OpenID response is automatically verified and assigned to env["rack.openid.response"].

Rack Example

MyApp = lambda do |env|
  if resp = env["rack.openid.response"]
    case resp.status
    when :success
      ...
    when :failure
      ...
    else
      [401, {"WWW-Authenticate" => 'OpenID identifier="http://example.com/"'}, []]
    end
  end
end

use Rack::OpenID
run MyApp

Sinatra Example

# Session needs to be before Rack::OpenID
use Rack::Session::Cookie

require 'rack/openid'
use Rack::OpenID

get '/login' do
  erb :login
end

post '/login' do
  if resp = request.env["rack.openid.response"]
    if resp.status == :success
      "Welcome: #{resp.display_identifier}"
    else
      "Error: #{resp.status}"
    end
  else
    headers 'WWW-Authenticate' => Rack::OpenID.build_header(
      :identifier => params["openid_identifier"]
    )
    throw :halt, [401, 'got openid?']
  end
end

enable :inline_templates

🪇 Code of Conduct

Everyone interacting in this project's codebases, issue trackers, chat rooms and mailing lists is expected to follow the code of conduct.

📌 Versioning

This Library adheres to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0. Violations of this scheme should be reported as bugs. Specifically, if a minor or patch version is released that breaks backward compatibility, a new version should be immediately released that restores compatibility. Breaking changes to the public API will only be introduced with new major versions.

To get a better understanding of how SemVer is intended to work over a project's lifetime, read this article from the creator of SemVer:

• "Major Version Numbers are Not Sacred"

As a result of this policy, you can (and should) specify a dependency on these libraries using the Pessimistic Version Constraint with two digits of precision.

For example:

spec.add_dependency("rack-openid2", "~> 2.0")

See CHANGELOG.md for list of releases.
