Passport strategy for authenticating with Edmodo using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using Edmodo in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Edmodo authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
$ npm install passport-edmodo
The Edmodo authentication strategy authenticates users using a Edmodo account
and OAuth 2.0 tokens. It uses the code authentication flow by default, but can
also be configured to use the token flow. 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.
passport.use(new EdmodoStrategy({
clientID: EDMODO_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: EDMODO_CLIENT_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/edmodo/callback"
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ edmodoId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Use passport.authenticate()
, specifying the 'edmodo'
strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/login/edmodo',
passport.authenticate('edmodo'));
app.get('/login/edmodo/callback',
passport.authenticate('edmodo', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
By default, this will use the Edmodo code authentication flow. If you want to use the token authentication flow, pass the useTokenFlow option to authenticate, and send the access token as access_token in the body of your request:
app.get('/login/edmodo/callback',
passport.authenticate('edmodo', { useTokenFlow: true }),
function(req, res) {
console.log('Authenticated!');
});
For a complete, working example, refer to the login example.
