This repository contains a new NodeJS Express application with the bare minimum work needed to demonstrate how to integrate Osso.
Osso promises an easy integration to your NodeJS app. We provide a passportjs provider package passport-osso to make the whole process a breeze.
This example can be run locally or in production. Osso provides a demo Osso instance and a Fake IDP (repo | application) that allow you to run this example and perform the full authentication flow.
The Osso demo instance reseeds its database every hour, but is seeded with most of the data needed to run this example application.
An OAuth Client with a client ID demo-client-id
and client secret demo-client-secret
will always be available - use these in your ENV by either copying the .env.sample
or by deploying to Heroku which will use the values from app.json
.
You must however ensure that a Redirect URI exists on the demo instance allow list. If you run locally, you should be all set - http://127.0.0.1:3000/users/auth/osso/callback
is always present for the demo OAuth client. If you run in production, you must set the production URL in your env as OSSO_REDIRECT_URI
using the same path, i.e. https://my-osso-example.herokuapp.com/users/auth/osso/callback
. You then must add that same value to the demo instance - choose the Demo Production OAuth client here and add your redirect URI: https://demo.ossoapp.com/admin/config
The Osso demo instance also includes a customer for example.com
with Osso's Fake IDP configured as an Identity Provider. When attempting to sign in to this app, you must use an email address with the domain example.com
. You'll then need to log in to the Fake IDP with the example.com
email and any value as the password.
If authentication is successful, a barebones json object for the authenticated user will be rendered by this application.
You can also use this demo app against your own Osso instance. Change the client_options.site
value in the Devise initializer to match the URL of your instance. You'll also then be responsible for setting OAuth client ENV vars specific to the OAuth clients in your instance.
You can run the application locally by cloning the repo. Rename .env.sample
to .env
and start the server with rails s
.
Use [anything]@example.com
as the email address for signing in.
This app can be deployed to Heroku - the deployed app will have the OSSO_CLIENT_ID
and OSSO_CLIENT_SECRET
ENV vars set for the Osso demo instance.
You will need to set one ENV variable, OSSO_REDIRECT_URI
. It should be https://YOUR_APP_NAME.herokuapp.com/users/auth/osso/callback
. You then must add that same value to the demo instance - choose the Demo Production OAuth client here and add your redirect URI: https://demo.ossoapp.com/admin/config. The demo instance reseeds its database every hour, so this is only intended for demo purposes. Trying to use the demo instance as a production system will not work.
Totally possible, but you're on your own! Just make sure you set the three ENV variables and you should be good to go.
