API
exegesisPassport(passport, strategyName[, options])
Returns an Exegesis authenticator that will authenticate against the given strategyName. This will not set the user in the session.
options.converter
is a function(user, pluginContext)
which takes in the user
authenticated by passport and returns a {user, roles, scopes}
object for
Exegesis.
options.isPresent
is a function(pluginContext, authInfo)
which returns true
if the given security credentials are present, and false otherwise. Passport does
not distinguish between an authentication attempt which did provide credentials
and an authentication attempt which provided incorrect credentials, but
Exegesis does. If this option is missing, then exgesis-passport will attempt
to work out of the field is present, but in most cases this will end up with
exegesis-passport treating missing credentials the same as bad credentials.
If options.passportOptions
if provided, this will be passed to the passport
strategy when it is run.
exegesisPassport(strategy[, options])
You can pass a Passport strategy directly to Exegesis to use the strategy without even having Passport installed:
const basicStrategy = { ifpassword === 'secret' ; else ; }; exegesisOptionsauthenticators = basicAuth:
options
are the same as for exegesisPassport(passport, strategyName[, options])
.
