Configure Strategy

The Schoology authentication strategy authenticates users using Schoology account and Schoology OAuth tokens. The institution's Schoology domain, as well as the request key and secret, are specified as options. The strategy requires a verify callback, which receives a token and profile, and calls cb providing a user.

passport.use('schoology', new OAuth1Strategy({
    consumerKey: EXAMPLE_CONSUMER_KEY,
    consumerSecret: EXAMPLE_CONSUMER_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/example/callback",
    signatureMethod: "RSA-SHA1",
    sgyDomain: "https://yourschool.schoology.com"
  },
  function(token, tokenSecret, profile, cb) {
    User.findOrCreate({ exampleId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return cb(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

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

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

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

app.get('/auth/example/callback', 
  passport.authenticate('schoology', { failureRedirect: '/login', successRedirect: '/' }));
