Passport strategy for authenticating with Google Drive using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using Google Drive, in your Node.js applications.
By plugging into Passport, Drive
authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or
framework that supports Connect-style
middleware, including Express.
$ npm install passport-google-drive
The Google Drive authentication strategy authenticates users using a Google
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.
The consumer key and secret are obtained by creating an application at Google's developer site.
passport.use(new GoogleDriveStrategy({
clientID: DRIVE_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: DRIVE_CLIENT_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/google-drive/callback"
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ driveId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Use passport.authenticate()
, specifying the 'google-drive'
strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/google-drive',
passport.authenticate('google-drive'));
app.get('/auth/google-drive/callback',
passport.authenticate('google-drive', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
