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-Yahoo-OAuth

Passport strategies for authenticating with Yahoo! using the OAuth 1.0a API.

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

Installation

$ npm install passport-yahoo-oauth

Usage

Configure Strategy

The Yahoo authentication strategy authenticates users using a Yahoo account and OAuth tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which accepts these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well as options specifying a consumer key, consumer secret, and callback URL.

passport.use(new YahooStrategy({
    consumerKey: YAHOO_CONSUMER_KEY,
    consumerSecret: YAHOO_CONSUMER_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/yahoo/callback"
  },
  function(token, tokenSecret, profile, done) {
    User.findOrCreate({ yahooId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return done(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

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

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

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

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

Examples

For a complete, working example, refer to the login example.

Issues

If you receive a 401 Unauthorized error, it is most likely because you have not yet specified any application "Permissions". Once you do so, Yahoo! will generate new credentials for usage, and will then authenticate your requests properly.

Tests

$ npm install --dev
$ make test
