Version 0.2.0

• New, more polyvalent auth method
• Token renewal support when available

The 0.2.0 changes a bit the syntax to perform the authentication and to retrieve a request_object to make API requests.

Authenticating the user with a code

OAuth.auth('provider', req.session, {
    code: 'the_code_you_got_from_the_front_end'
})
    .done(function (request_object) { /* make requests here */ })
    .fail();

This saves also the credentials in the session for the duration of the user's visit.

Authenticating the user from the session

OAuth.auth('provider', req.session)
    .done(function (request_object) { /* make requests here */ })
    .fail();

Authenticating the user from saved credentials

You can save a user's credentials (what's returned by OAuth.io, an object containing the access_token, refresh_token, etc) in the data storage of your choice. To retrieve the credentials, do this:

var credentials = request_object.getCredentials();

Later, you can use this object like this to rebuild a request_object:

OAuth.auth('provider', req.session, {
    credentials: credentials
})
    .done(function (request_object) { /* make requests here */ })
    .fail();

Note that the credentials are automatically refreshed through the auth method if the access token is expired.

Version 0.1.1

• A few improvements in unit tests
• Merged pull request from Bastian Kistner, adding .me() in callback of .auth() method

Version 0.1.0

This version of the SDK allows you to implement OAuth.io's server side flow on your Node.js backend. The following features are supported :

• state token generation
• access_token retrieval server-side
• standard API requests .get|post|put|delete|patch(url) from the backend
• unified me() request from the backend

To install the SDK, just run the following command in your Node.js project :

$ npm install oauthio --save
