@sensenet/authentication-oidc-react

@sensenet/authentication-oidc-react is a react component library that uses React context api for authenticating with oidc client.

Install

# Yarn
yarn add @sensenet/authentication-oidc-react

# NPM
npm install @sensenet/authentication-oidc-react

Usage

There are 2 components and 1 hook that you can use. AuthenticationProvider, OidcSecure, useOidcAuthentication.

AuthenticationProvider

For AuthenticationProvider to work properly you must pass a configuration object. To work with sensenet you must include sensenet as a scope and add the repository url as snrepo to extraQueryParams. See the example below for proper configuration.

Props

name	type	required	description
history	History from 'history'	✔	history object from react-router or history package. Needed for navigation.
configuration	UserManagerSettings from 'oidc-client'	✔	configuration object for oidc-client. These properties are required: client_id, redirect_uri, response_type, scope, authority, silent_redirect_uri
children	() => ReactNode	✔	You can only use AuthenticationProvider as a wrapper.
customEvents	CustomEvents		You can subscribe to oidc events like userLoaded. Be aware that this object should not change during rerender. Eg.: you should wrap it in useMemo.
authenticating	() => ReactNode		Component shown when OidcSecure is used and login is required.
notAuthenticated	() => ReactNode		Component shown on route /authentication/not-authenticated
notAuthorized	({ login }) => ReactNode		Component shown on route /authentication/not-authorized
sessionLost	ElementType<{ onAuthenticate: () => void }>		Component shown on route /authentication/session-lost
callbackComponentOverride	() => ReactNode		Component shown when login is redirecting back.

Example

import { AuthenticationProvider, useOidcAuthentication, UserManagerSettings } from '@sensenet/authentication-oidc-react'
import { Repository } from '@sensenet/client-core'
import { RepositoryContext } from '@sensenet/hooks-react'
import React, { PropsWithChildren } from 'react'
import { BrowserRouter, useHistory } from 'react-router-dom'

export const repositoryUrl = 'https://my-service.sensenet.com/'

export const configuration: UserManagerSettings = {
  client_id: 'spa',
  automaticSilentRenew: true,
  redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:3000/authentication/callback',
  response_type: 'code',
  post_logout_redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:3000/',
  scope: 'openid profile sensenet',
  authority: 'https://is.my-service.sensenet.com/',
  silent_redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:3000/authentication/silent_callback',
  extraQueryParams: { snrepo: repositoryUrl },
}

export function AppProviders({ children }: PropsWithChildren<{}>) {
  return (
    <BrowserRouter>
      <AuthProvider>
        <RepositoryProvider>{children}</RepositoryProvider>
      </AuthProvider>
    </BrowserRouter>
  )
}

export const AuthProvider = ({ children }: PropsWithChildren<{}>) => {
  const history = useHistory()

  return (
    <AuthenticationProvider configuration={configuration} history={history}>
      {children}
    </AuthenticationProvider>
  )
}

export const RepositoryProvider = ({ children }: PropsWithChildren<{}>) => {
  const { oidcUser } = useOidcAuthentication()

  if (!oidcUser) {
    return <LoginForm />
  }

  return (
    <RepositoryContext.Provider value={new Repository({ repositoryUrl, token: oidcUser.access_token })}>
      {children}
    </RepositoryContext.Provider>
  )
}

OidcSecure

This component can be used to secure routes that needs authentication. This must be inside a router and the AuthenticationProvider of course .

Props

name	type	required	description
history	History from 'history'	✔	history object from react-router or history package. Needed for navigation.
children	ReactNode	✔	You can only use OidcSecure as a wrapper.

Example

import React from 'react'
import { Switch, Route, useHistory } from 'react-router-dom'

const Routes = () => (
  <Switch>
    <Route path="/admin" component={Admin} />
  </Switch>
)

const Admin = ({ oidcUser }) => {
  const history = useHistory()

  return (
    <OidcSecure history={history}>
      <h1>Admin</h1>
      <p>Protected Admin</p>
    </OidcSecure>
  )
}

useOidcAuthentication

Custom hook for AuthenticationContext value. This hook can only be used inside the AuthenticationProvider.

Example

import React from 'react'
import { useOidcAuthentication } from '@sensenet/authentication-oidc-react'

const NavBar = ({ oidcUser }) => {
  const { login, logout, oidcUser, error, isLoading } = useOidcAuthentication()

  if (isLoading) {
    return <p>Loading...</p>
  }

  if (error) {
    return <p>Error: {error}</p>
  }

  return (
    <nav>
      <ul>
        <li onClick={login}>login</li>
        <li onClick={logout}>logout</li>
      </ul>
    </nav>
  )
}
