Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Aedilis authentication strategy based on the HTTP Bearer authentication strategy for Passport.

Install

$ npm install aedilis-passport

Usage

Configure Strategy

The Aedilis strategy authenticates users using a bearer token and is built on top of the HTTP Bearer authentication strategy by Jared Hanson.
The verify callback needed by the HTTP Bearer strategy is implemented in the Aedilis strategy. During this callback a connection will be made to consul to resolve the token to a specific user.

passport.use(new AedilisStrategy({
  host: "<aedilis-host>",
  port: "<aedilis-port>"
}));

Authenticate Requests

Since the Aedilis strategy is an extension of the Bearer strategy you can use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'bearer' strategy, to authenticate requests. Requests containing bearer tokens do not require session support, so the session option can be set to false.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/profile', 
  passport.authenticate('bearer', { session: false }),
  function(req, res) {
    res.json(req.user);
  });
