@oauth-everything/passport-deviantart

A Passport strategy for authenticating with Deviantart using OAuth 2.0 and the Deviantart API.

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

Install

$ npm install @oauth-everything/passport-deviantart

Configure Strategy

The Deviantart authentication strategy authenticates users using a Deviantart account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The app ID and secret obtained when creating an application are supplied as options when creating the strategy. The strategy also requires a verify callback, which receives the access token and optional refresh token, as well as profile which contains the authenticated user's Deviantart profile. The verify callback must call cb providing a user to complete authentication.

passport.use(new Strategy(
    {
        clientID: DEVIANTART_APP_ID,
        clientSecret: DEVIANTART_APP_SECRET,
        callbackURL: "http://localhost:3000/auth/deviantart/callback"
    },
    (accessToken: string, refreshToken: string, profile: Profile, cb: VerifyCallback<User>) => {

        User.findOrCreate({ deviantartId: profile.id }, (err: Error, user: User) => {
            return cb(err, user);
        });

    }
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'deviantart' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/auth/deviantart',
  passport.authenticate('deviantart'));

app.get('/auth/deviantart/callback',
  passport.authenticate('deviantart', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
  function(req, res) {
    // Successful authentication, redirect home.
    res.redirect('/');
  });
