This is a forked version of Yahoo passport! (OAuth1 and OAuth2) authentication strategy for Passport.
npm install passport-yahoo-oauth2Passport strategies for authenticating with Yahoo!
using the OAuth 1.0a API and Oauth 2.0.
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.
#### Configure Strategy
#### OAuth 1
var YahooStrategy = require('passport-yahoo-oauth').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);
});
}
));
#### OAuth2 (forked version)
var YahooStrategy = require('passport-yahoo-oauth2').OAuth2Strategy;
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('/');
});
For a complete, working example, refer to the login example.
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.
