SAMLRequest

To generate a SAML AuthNRequest:

const saml = require('samljs');
const AuthnRequest = saml.AuthnRequest;

const opts = {
    issuer: 'https://sp.example.com',
    acs: 'https://sp.example.com/sso/callback',
    ssoService: 'https://idp.example.com/login/sso'
};
const authnReq = new AuthnRequest(opts);
// generate base64 encoded SAMLRequest
var samlRequest1 = authnReq.toEncodedString();
// generate compressed base64 encoded SAMLRequest
var samlRequest2 = authnReq.toCompressedEncodedString();

SAMLResponse

To parse a SAMLResponse

const saml = require('samljs');

// the SAMLResponse body from HTTP Request body, such as express's req.body
const body = req.body.SAMLResponse;

saml.parseResponse(body, (err, resp) => {
    if (err) {
        // parse failed!
        console.log(err);
        return;
    }

    const attributes = resp.getAttributes();
    console.log(attributes);
});
