{authmosphere} is a library to support and test OAuth 2.0 workflows in JavaScript projects.

It's implemented in TypeScript which improves the development experience via implicit documentation with types and first-class IDE support. The library itself is transpiled to JavaScript (ES6) so there is no need for a TypeScript compiler to use authmosphere in JavaScript projects.

The following OAuth flows are supported:

• Authorization Code Flow
• Client Credentials Grant
• Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant
• Refresh Token Grant

The Authmosphere JavaScript API supports:

• Express middlewares to simplify authentication and authorization
• TokenCache service to manage access tokens
• OAuth tooling
  • getAccessToken - helper to request access tokens
  • getTokenInfo - helper to validate access tokens
• Mock tooling for OAuth 2.0 endpoints to enable decent unit and integration tests

For a comprehensive documentation checkout out the API documentation.

import { TokenCache, OAuthGrantType } from 'authmosphere';

const oAuthConfig = {
  grantType: OAuthGrantType.CLIENT_CREDENTIALS_GRANT,
  accessTokenEndpoint: 'https://example.com/access_token',
  credentialsDir: './credentialsDir'
};

const tokenConfig = {
  'service-foo': ['foo.read', 'foo.write'],
  'service-bar': ['bar.read']
};

// create a new TokenCache instance
const tokenCache = new TokenCache(tokenConfig, oAuthConfig);

// request and resolve a token from the cache
tokenCache
  .get('service-foo') // needs to match with a key from 'tokenConfig'
  .then((token) => { /* ...use the token... */ });

import { authenticationMiddleware, requireScopesMiddleware } from 'authmosphere';

// extract and validate access token (authorization header)
// and reject requests without valid access token
app.use(authenticationMiddleware({ tokenInfoEndpoint: 'https://example.com/token_validation' });

// only allow access for requests with tokens that have scopeA and scopeB
app.get('/secured/route', requireScopesMiddleware(['scopeA', 'scopeB']), (request, response) => {
  // handle request
});
