passport-gitee

Passport strategy for authenticating with Gitee using the OAuth 1.0a API.

This module lets you authenticate using Gitee in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Gitee authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.

Install

$ npm install passport-gitee

Usage

Create an Application

Before using passport-gitee, you must first get an Gitee API key. If you have not already done so, an API key can be requested at internal. Your will be issued an API key and secret, which need to be provided to the strategy.

Configure Strategy

The Gitee authentication strategy authenticates users using an Gitee account and OAuth tokens. The API key secret obtained from Gitee are supplied as options when creating the strategy. The strategy also requires a verify callback, which receives the access token and corresponding secret as arguments, as well as profile which contains the authenticated user's Gitee profile. The verify callback must call cb providing a user to complete authentication.

passport.use(new GiteeStrategy({
    consumerKey: Gitee_CONSUMER_KEY,
    consumerSecret: Gitee_CONSUMER_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/gitee/callback"
  },
  function(token, tokenSecret, profile, cb) {
    User.findOrCreate({ giteeId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return cb(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'gitee' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/auth/gitee',
  passport.authenticate('gitee'));

app.get('/auth/gitee/callback', 
  passport.authenticate('gitee', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
  function(req, res) {
    // Successful authentication, redirect home.
    res.redirect('/');
  });
