passport-beam

Passport strategies for authenticating with Beam.

This module lets you authenticate using Beam in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Beam authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.

Install

$ npm install passport-beam

Configure Strategy

The Beam OAuth authentication strategy authenticates users using a Beam 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 client ID, client secret, and callback URL.

passport.use(new BeamStrategy({
    clientID: BEAM_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: BEAM_CLIENT_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/beam/callback"
  },
  function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
    User.findOrCreate({ beamId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return done(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'beam' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/auth/beam',
  passport.authenticate('beam'));

app.get('/auth/beam/callback',
  passport.authenticate('beam', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
  function(req, res) {
    // Successful authentication, redirect home.
    res.redirect('/');
  });
