bitly authentication strategy for Passport.
npm install passport-bitlyPassport strategy for authenticating
with bitly using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using bitly, in your Node.js applications.
By plugging into Passport, bitly
authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or
framework that supports Connect-style
middleware, including Express.
$ npm install passport-bitly
#### Configure Strategy
The bitly authentication strategy authenticates users using a bitly
account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which
accepts these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well asoptions specifying a client ID, client secret, and callback URL.
passport.use(new BitlyStrategy({
clientID: BITLY_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: BITLY_CLIENT_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/bitly/callback"
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ bitlyId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
#### Authenticate Requests
Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'bitly' strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express
application:
app.get('/auth/bitly',
passport.authenticate('bitly'));
app.get('/auth/bitly/callback',
passport.authenticate('bitly', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
Developers using the popular Express web framework can refer to an example as a starting point for their own web applications.
