Passport-IBM
Passport strategy for authenticating with IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager (TFIM) using OpenID 2.0.
This module lets you authenticate using TFIM in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, TFIM authentication can be integrated into any application or framework that supports or impements Express.
Installing

How to use this module
Configuring the strategy
The IBM authentication strategy authenticates users who have an IBM ID which is also their OpenID 2.0 identifier. The strategy requires the developer to implement a callback, which accepts the IBM ID (identifier), calls 'done' and injects a 'user' object. Options can also be supplied to specify a return URL, a realm and profile exchange which defaults to true.
passport.use('ibm', new IBMStrategy({
returnURL: 'http://localhost.ibmserviceengage.com:3005/auth/ibm/return',
realm: 'http://localhost.ibmserviceengage.com:3005/'
},
//Callback
function(identifier, profile, done) {
// asynchronous check
process.nextTick(function ()
{
console.log("*** Identifier *** "+identifier);
console.log("*** Email ***"+profile.emails[0].value);
return done(null, { identifier: profile});
});
}
Authenticate Requests
Use passport.authenticate() and specify the 'ibm' strategy, to
authenticate requests.
Here is an example for route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth', passport.authenticate('ibm'),function (req, res)
{
res.status(200).end();
});
// This is the return URL called by Passport
app.get('/auth/ibm/return',
passport.authenticate('ibm', { failureRedirect: '/loginpage' }),
function(req, res) {
// Success ... redirect to main page.
res.redirect('/');
});
