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 🙏

Readme

passport-oauth2-jwt-bearer

JSON Web Token (JWT) Bearer Token Profiles for OAuth 2.0 client authentication strategy for Passport.

This module lets you authenticate requests containing client credentials in a JWT sent in the request body's assertion field, as defined by the JSON Web Token (JWT) Bearer Token Profiles for OAuth 2.0 draft. These credentials are typically used to protect the token endpoint and used as an alternative to HTTP Basic authentication. This module is modeled off of Google's OAuth 2.0 Server to Server Applications. This module can be used with the oauth2orize-jwt-bearer module to create a JWT OAuth 2.0 exchange scenario server.

Install

$ npm install passport-oauth2-jwt-bearer

Usage

Configure Strategy

The JSON Web Token (JWT) Bearer Token Profiles for OAuth 2.0 client authentication strategy authenticates clients using a JWT. The strategy requires a verify callback, which accepts those credentials and calls done providing a client.

var ClientJWTBearerStrategy = require('passport-oauth2-jwt-bearer').Strategy;

passport.use(new ClientJWTBearerStrategy(
  function(claimSetIss, done) {
    Clients.findOne({ clientId: claimSetIss }, function (err, client) {
      if (err) { return done(err); }
      if (!client) { return done(null, false); }
      return done(null, client);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'oauth2-jwt-bearer' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application, using OAuth2orize middleware to implement the token endpoint:

app.get('/profile',
  passport.authenticate(['oauth2-jwt-bearer'], { session: false }),
  oauth2orize.token());

Tests

$ npm install --dev
$ make test
