DEPRECATED: On April 20, 2015, Google's support for OAuth 1.0 was officially deprecated and is no longer supported. You are encouraged to migrate to OAuth 2.0 and passport-google-oauth20 as soon as possible.

passport-google-oauth1

Passport strategy for authenticating with Google using the OAuth 1.0a API.

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

Install

$ npm install passport-google-oauth1

Usage

Create an Application

Before using passport-google-oauth1, you must register your domain with Google. If you have not already done so, a new domain can be added at Google Accounts. Your domain will be issued an OAuth Consumer Key and OAuth Consumer Secret, which need to be provided to the strategy.

Configure Strategy

The Google authentication strategy authenticates users using a Google account and OAuth tokens. The consumer key and consumer secret obtained when registering a domain are supplied as options when creating the strategy. The strategy also requires a verify callback, which receives the access token and corresponding secret as arguments, as well as profile which contains the authenticated user's Google profile. The verify callback must call cb providing a user to complete authentication.

passport.use(new GoogleStrategy({
    consumerKey: 'www.example.com',
    consumerSecret: GOOGLE_CONSUMER_SECRET,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/google/callback"
  },
  function(token, tokenSecret, profile, cb) {
    User.findOrCreate({ googleId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return cb(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

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

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/auth/google',
  passport.authenticate('google', { scope: 'https://www.google.com/m8/feeds' }));

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

Examples

Developers using the popular Express web framework can refer to an example as a starting point for their own web applications. The example shows how to authenticate users using Twitter. However, because both Twitter and Google use OAuth 1.0, the code is similar. Simply replace references to Twitter with corresponding references to Google.
