Passport-Pinterest
Passport strategy for authenticating with Pinterest using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using Pinterest in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Pinterest authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
Installation
This is a module for node.js and is installed via npm:
npm install passport-pinterest-shree --save
Usage
Configure Strategy
The Pinterest authentication strategy authenticates users using a Pinterest account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify
callback, which accepts these credentials and calls done
providing a user, as well as options
specifying a client ID, client secret, scope, and callback URL.
passport.use(
new PinterestStrategy(
{
clientID: PINTEREST_APP_ID,
clientSecret: PINTEREST_APP_SECRET,
scope: ["read_public", "read_relationships"],
callbackURL: "https://localhost:3000/auth/pinterest/callback",
state: true,
},
function (accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate(
{ pinterestId: profile.id },
function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
}
);
}
)
);
Set the scope parameter according to the list of available scopes.
Pinterest only allows https callback urls. This blog article explains the quickest way to enable https for your Express server.
Authenticate Requests
Use passport.authenticate()
, specifying the 'pinterest'
strategy, to authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get("/auth/pinterest", passport.authenticate("pinterest"));
app.get(
"/auth/pinterest/callback",
passport.authenticate("pinterest", { failureRedirect: "/login" }),
function (req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect("/");
}
);
Contributing
To set up your development environment for Passport-Pinterest:
- Clone this repo to your desktop,
- in the shell
cd
to the main folder, - hit
npm install
, - hit
npm install gulp -g
if you haven't installed gulp globally yet, and - run
gulp dev
. (Or runnode ./node_modules/.bin/gulp dev
if you don't want to install gulp globally.)
gulp dev
watches all source files and if you save some changes it will lint the code and execute all tests. The test coverage report can be viewed from ./coverage/lcov-report/index.html
.
If you want to debug a test you should use gulp test-without-coverage
to run all tests without obscuring the code by the test coverage instrumentation.
