Usage

use with ES5

:notebook: When using open-id-connect helper with ES5 environements, fetch and Promise need to be polyfilled. Fetch, Regenerator Runtime, and Core JS are recommended, but can be swapped out for other polyfills if wanted.

var oidc = require('@uportal/open-id-connect');

// with a promise
oidc
  .default()
  .then(function (token) {
    console.log(token.encoded); // Raw JWT
    console.log(token.decoded); // parsed JSON
  })
  .catch(function (err) {
    console.error(err);
  });

// with a callback
oidc.default({}, function (err, token) {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
    return;
  }

  console.log(token.encoded);
  console.log(token.decoded);
});

use with ES6+

import oicd from '@uportal/open-id-connect';

// with default values
try {
  const { encoded, decoded } = await oidc();
  console.log(encoded);
  console.log(decoded);
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
}

// with options
try {
  const { encoded, decoded } = await oidc({
    userInfoApiUrl: '/uPortal/api/v5-1/userinfo',
    timeout: 5000,
    propertyTransforms: {
      example: JSON.parse,
    },
  });
  console.log(encoded);
  console.log(decoded);
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
}

API

oidc(options, callback); //-> Promise

• (optional) Options
  • (optional) string userInfoApiUrl - URL for Open ID Connect endpoint
  • (optional) number timeout - time until token should be renewed
  • (optional) object propertyTransforms - transforms to apply to specific properties
    • string key - name of property to be transformed
    • function value - function to apply to property
• (optional) Callback
  • Error err - null if resonse is okay, error object otherwise
  • Object token - object with encoded and decoded keys
    • string encoded has the raw JSON Web Token
    • Object decoded has the parsed JSON object
• Promise
  • Object resolve token object
    • string encoded has the raw JSON Web Token
    • Object decoded has the parsed JSON object
  • Error reject reason Promise was rejected
