This module is for use by web applications that are secured using the Azure App Service Authentication and Authorization feature and make API calls using the axios HTTP client. It obtains an access token from the Azure App Service Token Store and adds it as the bearer token to all axios requests. In addition, it can also be used as a Vue.js plugin (see the Vue.js Plugin section below).
Install this package into your web application, making sure that it is part of your distribution using a tool such as webpack or brunch.
npm install axios-azure-token-store
The recommended approach is to create a new axios instance that handles all of your API requests. Then, use the axios-azure-token-store utility to add the interceptor as follows:
import tokenStore from 'axios-azure-token-store';
const client = axios.create();
tokenStore.addInterceptor(client); // adds the axios interceptorNow, for every request, the Authorization header is added with the access token obtained from the /.auth/me endpoint as the bearer token. The access token is refreshed if required by a call to the /.auth/refresh endpoint.
client.get('/api/data'); // authentication is handled automaticallyThere are two utility methods, getTokens() and getClaim(typ). Each of these returns a promise.
Returns a promise resolved with the tokens returned from the /.auth/me endpoint. This is the same method that is called internally by the axios interceptor.
Searches through the user_claims property of the tokens obtained by calling getTokens() and returns an array of claim values maching the specified typ. This is a synchronous call. You must call getTokens() before calling this method. Returns an empty array if no claims were found.
Searches through the user_claims property of the tokens obtained by calling getTokens() and returns the value of the first claim value maching the specified typ. This is a synchronous call. You must call getTokens() before calling this method. Returns null if no claim was found.
This module can also be used as a Vue.js plugin.
import tokenStore from `axios-azure-token-store`;
Vue.use(tokenStore);The token store instance is now available on the Vue instance.
this.$tokenStore.getClaim('name').then(name => {
console.log(name);
