Passport-RescueTime
Passport strategy for authenticating with RescueTime using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using RescueTime in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, RescueTime authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
Install
$ npm install passport-rescuetime
Usage
Configure Strategy
The RescueTime authentication strategy authenticates users using a RescueTime 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.
passport.use(new RescueTimeStrategy({
clientID: RESCUETIME_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: RESCUETIME_CLIENT_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/rescuetime/callback"
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ .. }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Note that the RescueTime does not return profile information so the profile argument will be empty.
Authenticate Requests
Use passport.authenticate()
, specifying the 'rescuetime'
strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/rescuetime',
passport.authenticate('rescuetime'));
app.get('/auth/rescuetime/callback',
passport.authenticate('rescuetime', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
