#### Configure Strategy
The Google authentication strategy authenticates users using a Google
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 app ID and app secret.
const GoogleStrategy = require('passport-token-google2').Strategy
passport.use(new GoogleStrategy({
clientID: GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
fetchGoogleUser(profile, accessToken)
.then((user) => done(null, user))
.catch((err) => {
// Handle the error
done(null, {})
});
}
));
#### Authenticate Requests
Use passport.authenticate('google-token') to authenticate requests.
router.get('/auth/google/token', passport.authenticate('google-token'), someFunction);
GET request need to have id_token sent as access_token in either the query string or set as a header. If a POST is being preformed they can also be included in the body of the request.
#### Loopback 3.X support
