Passport strategies for authenticating with Twitch using OAuth 2.0 on the New & Old Twitch API.

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

Install

$ npm install passport-twitch.js

Usage of OAuth 2.0

Configure Strategy

The Twitch OAuth 2.0 authentication strategy authenticates users using a Twitch account and OAuth 2.0 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.

var passport       = require("passport");
var twitchStrategy = require("passport-twitch.js").Strategy;

passport.use(new twitchStrategy({
    clientID: TWITCH_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: TWITCH_CLIENT_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/twitch/callback",
    scope: "user_read"
  },
  function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
    //Handle Database Query Addition Here.
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the "twitch.js" strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get("/auth/twitch", passport.authenticate("twitch.js"));
app.get("/auth/twitch/callback", passport.authenticate("twitch.js", { failureRedirect: "/" }), function(req, res) {
    // Successful authentication, redirect home.
    res.redirect("/");
});

Optionally, the forceVerify option can be set to true to indicate that the user should be re-prompted for authorization:

app.get("/auth/twitch", passport.authenticate("twitch.js", {forceVerify: true}));

The request to this route should include a GET or POST data with the keys access_token and optionally, refresh_token set to the credentials you receive from Twitch.

GET /auth/twitch?access_token=<TOKEN>

Issues

If you receive a 401 Unauthorized error, it is most likely because you have wrong access token or not yet specified any application permissions. Once you refresh access token with new permissions, try to send this access token again.

Example

#!/bin/env node

require('dotenv').config();

var express = require('express');
var session = require('express-session');
var helmet = require('helmet');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');

var passport = require('passport');
var refresh = require('passport-oauth2-refresh');
var _strategy = require('passport-twitch.js').Strategy;

var app = express();

app.use(session({
  key: process.env.SESSION_KEY,
  secret: process.env.SESSION_SECRET,
  resave: true,
  saveUninitialized: true,
  cookie: {
    secure: true
  }
}));

app.use(helmet());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
app.use(bodyParser.json());

passport.serializeUser(function(u, d) {
  d(null, u);
});
passport.deserializeUser(function(u, d) {
  d(null, u);
});

var TwitchStrategy = new _strategy({
  clientID: process.env.TWITCH_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.TWITCH_SECRET,
  callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/twitch/callback",
  scope: ["guilds", "connections", "email"]
}, function(accesstoken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
  console.log(profile);
  return done(null, profile);
});

passport.use(TwitchStrategy);
refresh.use(TwitchStrategy);

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
  if (!req.session.user) {
    res.redirect('/login');
  } else {
    res.send(`Hello ${req.session.user.display_name}`);
  }
});

app.get('/login', passport.authenticate('twitch.js'}));
app.get('/auth/twitch/callback', passport.authenticate('twitch.js', { failureRedirect: '/' }), function(req, res) {
  req.session.user = req.user;
  console.log(req.user);
  console.log(req.query);
  res.redirect('/');
});
app.listen(process.env.SITE_PORT, process.env.SITE_HOST, function() {
  console.log(`Express Started`);
});
