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 🙏

connect-cas2

CAS Client NodeJS implement,support CAS 2.0+ protocol.

Totally restructured from my another project nodejs-cas.

VERSION

1.1.4-beta

Install

npm install connect-cas2
        

Quick start

var express = require('express');
var ConnectCas = require('connect-cas2');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var session = require('express-session');
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
var MemoryStore = require('session-memory-store')(session);

var app = express();

app.use(cookieParser());
app.use(session({
  name: 'NSESSIONID',
  secret: 'Hello I am a long long long secret',
  store: new MemoryStore()  // or other session store
}));

var casClient = new ConnectCas({
  debug: true,
    ignore: [
      /\/ignore/
    ],
    match: [],
    servicePrefix: 'http://10.17.86.87:8080',
    serverPath: 'http://rdmdev.oa.com',
    paths: {
      validate: '/cas/validate',
      serviceValidate: '/buglycas/serviceValidate',
      proxy: '/buglycas/proxy',
      login: '/buglycas/login',
      logout: '/buglycas/logout',
      proxyCallback: '/buglycas/proxyCallback'
    },
    redirect: false,
    gateway: false,
    renew: false,
    ssoff: true,
    cache: {
      enable: true,
      ttl: 5 * 60 * 1000,
      filter: []
    },
    fromAjax: {
      header: 'x-client-ajax',
      status: 418
    }
});

app.use(casClient.core());
app.get('/logout', casClient.logout());

// or do some logic yourself
app.get('/logout', function(req, res, next) {
  // Do whatever you like here, then call the logout middleware
  casClient.logout()(req, res, next);
});

Constructor


var casClient = new CasClient(options);

options

options.serverPath {String} (Required)

The path of your CAS server. For example: https://www.your-cas-server-path.com/cas

options.servicePrefix {String} (Required)

The root path of your CAS client(Your website).

Every paths that for your CAS client will use this path as the root path.

For example: We will send ${options.servicePrefix}${options.paths.validate} as service parameter to the login page. Then after login CAS server will redirect to ${options.servicePrefix}${options.paths.validate} to validate the ST.

options.ignore {Array} (Optional, default: [])

In some cases, you don't need all request to be authenticated by the CAS. So you can set the ignore rules, when some rules matched, we will simply call the next() function and do nothing.

We support String rules, RegExp rules and Function rules.

For example, we checked the rules like:

  1. String rules:
if (req.path.indexOf(stringRule) > -1) next();
  1. Reg rules:
if (regRule.test(req.path)) next();
  1. Function rules:
if (funcRule(req.path, req)) next();

options.match {Array} (Optional, default: [])

If you set this option, only the paths that matched one of the rules will go into CAS middleware. All rules works just like options.ignore.

options.paths {Object} (Optional, default: {})

Relative paths to specific all functional paths to the CAS protocol. If you havn't modified the APIs of your CAS server, you may don't need to set this option. (In proxy mode, you must set the options.paths.proxyCall)

options.paths.validate (String) (Optional, default: '/cas/validate')

(For CAS Client)

The path you want your CAS client to validate ST from the CAS server. And we'll use ${options.servicePrefix}${options.paths.validate} as service parameter to any CAS server's APIs that need this service.

options.paths.serviceValidate (String) (Optional, default: '/cas/serviceValidate')

(For CAS Server)

The path your CAS Server validate a ST. CAS client will send request to ${options.servicePrefix}${options.paths.serviceValidate} to validate a ST.

options.paths.proxy (String) (Optional, default: '/cas/proxy')

(For CAS Server)

In proxy mode, you need a PGT(proxy granting ticket) to communicate with other server, you can get a PGT form this path: ${options.servicePrefix}${options.paths.proxy}.

options.paths.login (String) (Optional, default: '/cas/login')

(For CAS Server)

The login path of your CAS server.

options.paths.logout (String) (Optional, default: '/cas/logout')

(For CAS Server)

The logout path of your CAS server.

options.paths.proxyCallback (String) (Optional, default: '')

(For CAS Client) In proxy mode, setting this path means you want this path of your CAS Client to receive the callback from CAS Server(Proxy mode) to receive the PGTIOU and PGTID.

In none-proxy mode, don't set this option!

options.fromAjax {Object} (Optional, default: {})

Because an AJAX request can't notice 302 redirect response, and will directly redirect without telling you anything.

So when your user's authentication is expired, and your CAS Client and CAS Server is not in the same domain, (In most cases they won't be the same domain) when they send an AJAX request, oops, an not-allowed-cross-domain exception will occur!

To prevent this embarrassing situation, we add this option.

options.fromAjax.header {String} (Optional, default: 'x-client-ajax')

CAS will assume all request with header: 'x-client-ajax' is an AJAX request, so when user's authentication expired, CAS won't redirect to the login page, but send back the specified status code that you set as options.fromAjax.status.

options.fromAjax.status {Number} (Optional, default: 418)

As introduced before, when user's authentication expired, CAS won't redirect to the login page, but send back this as http status code.

For example:

options.fromAjax = {
   header: 'x-client-ajax',
   status: 418
};

So what you need to do in your browser code is you should handle this situation, when status code is 418, you should do window.location.reload() or something else to let your user reauthenticate.

options.debug {Boolean} (Optional, default: false)

For debug usage, we will log every step when CAS client is interacting with CAS server.

options.redirect(req, res) {Function} (Optional, default: null)

Change the default behaviour that after user login or login failed, CAS redirect to the last url.

If you return true from this redirect function, then CAS won't redirect to the last url, (So make sure you send a response in your function.) otherwise, CAS just keep the same logic that will redirect to the last url after user login or login failed.

options.cache {Object} (Optional) Since v1.1.0-beta

Works in PROXY-MODE ONLY!

If you don't want to request a proxy-ticket every time you interact with your server, you can set this options to enable=true. (NOTICE!! You must make sure the server you want to interact already set the PT cacheable, or using an PT that cached in your CAS client won't work!)

options.cache.enable {Boolean} (Optional, defualt: false)

options.cache.ttl {Number} (Optional, default: 300000 , in millisecond )

How long will the PT be cached.

options.cache.filter {Array} (Optinal, default: [])

In some cases, not every servers you want to interact enabled cacheable PT, so you can set the filter rules here, if one rule matchs the service url, it's PT won't be cached.

Every rule works like the options.ignore.

METHOD

casClient.core()

Return a middleware that handles all the CAS client logic.

Use as app.use(casClient.core()).

casClient.logout()

Return a middleware that handles the logout action.

Use it like app.get('/logout', casClient.logout()). It will destroy the session of current user and then redirect to the CAS server logout page.

req.getProxyTicket(servicePath, [disableCache], callback)

If you setup options.paths.proxyCallback, CAS middleware will add a function called getProxyTicket on the request object, so you can access that by callback req.getProxyTicket.

servicePath is the service path you want to interact with.

disableCache {Boolean} (optional) When you setup PT cache, then you get a cached PT from getProxyTicket, but somehow the service validate this cached PT failed. In that case, you need to call this function again with setting this param to true.

callback(err, pt)

Example:

   app.get('/api', function(req, res) {
     var service = 'http://your-service.com';
     req.getProxyTicket(service + '/cas', function(err, pt) {
       if (err) return res.status(401).send('Error when requesting PT, Authentication failed!');

       request.get(service + '/api/someapi?ticket=' + 'pt', function(err, response) {
          res.send(response);
       });
     });
   });

PROXY MODE

In proxy mode, before you want to interact with your server, you need to request a ticket from CAS server.

NONE-PROXY MODE

In none-proxy mode, don't set options.paths.proxyCallback, when all middle-ware passed, that means the login succeed.

CHANGE LOG

1.1.0-beta

Add cache proxy ticket feature.

1.0.0-beta

Restructured from nodejs-cas.
