Error classes and handler for Oauth 2.0 spec errors. Was patterned after the well-known http-errors lib.

Install the module with: npm install oauth2-errors

const OauthErrors = require('oauth2-errors');

Follows the Oauth 2.0 Spec for errors, see here

• InvalidClient - invalid_client
• InvalidGrant - invalid_grant
• InvalidRequest - invalid_request
• InvalidScope - invalid_scope
• UnauthorizedClient - unauthorized_client
• UnauthorizedGrantType - unauthorized_grant_type

And Authorization Errors:

• AccessDenied - access_denied
• UnsupportedResponseType - unsupported_response_type
• ServerError - server_error
• TemporarilyUnavailable - temporarily_unavailable

Each error is a class, so can be instantiated by calling new.

const invalidGrantError = new OauthErrors.InvalidGrant()

Each class can optionally take a params argument with 2 optional properties:

• description - error_description
• uri - error_uri

const invalidRequestError = new OauthErrors.InvalidRequest({
  description: 'more description this bad request', 
  uri: 'https://mydomain.com/invalid_request'
})

• toString

  • Creates a JSON string with the following properties:
    • error
    • error_description - [optional]
    • error_uri - [optional]

• respond

  • ExpressJS convenience response handler
  • Takes the ExpressJS response as the sole argument

const OauthErrors = require('oauth2-errors');
...

// Using the respond convenience fn
function authorize(req, res, next) {

  if (invalidClient()) {
    const invalidClientErr = new OauthErrors.InvalidClient()
    return invalidClientErr.respond(res)
  }
}
