authorizer-react

Authorizer React SDK allows you to implement authentication in your React application quickly. It also allows you to access the user profile.

Here is a quick guide on getting started with @authorizerdev/authorizer-react package.

Code Sandbox Demo: https://codesandbox.io/s/authorizer-demo-qgjpw

Step 1 - Create Instance

Get Authorizer URL by instantiating Authorizer instance and configuring it with necessary environment variables.

Step 2 - Install package

Install @authorizerdev/authorizer-react library

npm i --save @authorizerdev/authorizer-react
OR
yarn add @authorizerdev/authorizer-react

Step 3 - Configure Provider and use Authorizer Components

Authorizer comes with react context which serves as Provider component for the application

import {
  AuthorizerProvider,
  Authorizer,
  useAuthorizer,
} from '@authorizerdev/authorizer-react';

const App = () => {
  return (
    <AuthorizerProvider
      config={{
        authorizerURL: 'http://localhost:8080',
        redirectURL: window.location.origin,
        clientID: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
      }}
    >
      <LoginSignup />
      <Profile />
    </AuthorizerProvider>
  );
};

const LoginSignup = () => {
  return <Authorizer />;
};

const Profile = () => {
  const { user } = useAuthorizer();

  if (user) {
    return <div>{user.email}</div>;
  }

  return null;
};

Commands

Local Development

The recommended workflow is to run authorizer in one terminal:

npm start # or yarn start

This builds to /dist and runs the project in watch mode so any edits you save inside src causes a rebuild to /dist.

Then run either Storybook or the example playground:

Example

Then run the example inside another:

cd example
npm i # or yarn to install dependencies
npm start # or yarn start

The default example imports and live reloads whatever is in /dist, so if you are seeing an out of date component, make sure TSDX is running in watch mode like we recommend above. No symlinking required, we use Parcel's aliasing.

To do a one-off build, use npm run build or yarn build.

To run tests, use npm test or yarn test.

Configuration

Code quality is set up for you with prettier, husky, and lint-staged. Adjust the respective fields in package.json accordingly.

Storybook commands

npm run storybook

npm run build-storybook

Jest

Jest tests are set up to run with npm test or yarn test.

Bundle analysis

Calculates the real cost of your library using size-limit with npm run size and visulize it with npm run analyze.
