Azure Active Directory Library (ADAL) support for ReactJS

npm install react-adal

index.js

 
import { runWithAdal } from 'react-adal';
import { authContext } from './adalConfig';
 
const DO_NOT_LOGIN = false;
 
runWithAdal(authContext, () => {
 
  // eslint-disable-next-line
  require('./indexApp.js');
 
},DO_NOT_LOGIN);
 

This index wrap is needed because ADAL use iframes for token silent refresh, and we do not want to have duplicated ReactApp started on iframes too!

indexApp.js (your real app index as it already is - example below)

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import { store } from './store';
import App from './App';
 
  ReactDOM.render(
    <Provider store={store}>
      <App />
    </Provider>,
    document.getElementById('root'),
  );
 

adalConfig.js

 
import { AuthenticationContext, adalFetch, withAdalLogin } from 'react-adal';
 
export const adalConfig = {
  tenant: '14d71d65-f596-4eae-be30-27f079bf8d4b',
  clientId: '14d71d65-f596-4eae-be30-27f079bf8d4b',
  endpoints: {
    api: '14d71d65-f596-4eae-be30-27f079bf8d4b',
  },
  cacheLocation: 'localStorage',
};
 
export const authContext = new AuthenticationContext(adalConfig);
 
export const adalApiFetch = (fetch, url, options) =>
  adalFetch(authContext, adalConfig.endpoints.api, fetch, url, options);
 
export const withAdalLoginApi = withAdalLogin(authContext, adalConfig.endpoints.api);
 

use adalApiFetch with your favorite "fetch" in your api call.

withAdalLoginApi HOC

change DO_NOT_LOGIN to true on index.js to stop login on index.js

 
import MyPage from './myPageComponent';
import Loading from './Loading';
import ErrorPage from './ErrorPage';
 
const MyProtectedPage = withAdalLoginApi(MyPage, () => <Loading />, (error) => <ErrorPage error={error}/>);
 
<Route 
   path="/onlyLoggedUsers"
   render={ ()=> <MyProtectedPage /> } 
/>
