            Node.js 4.4.4 is absolutely ancient.

            It doesn't even show up on this page of releases, which says in part:

            After six months, odd-numbered releases (9, 11, etc.) become unsupported, and even-numbered releases (10, 12, etc.) move to Active LTS status and are ready for general use. LTS release status is "long-term support", which typically guarantees that critical bugs will be fixed for a total of 30 months.

            Version 4.4 is well beyond its maintenance window, and I strongly urge you to upgrade this project.

            Having said that, there's a good chance you can get Heroku to run Node.js 10 to match your local version. Heroku only officially supports the current and active LTS releases, but it doesn't prevent you from using older releases:

            Since Heroku is based on a standard Ubuntu Linux stack, you can run most Node versions (>= 0.10.0) on the platform. However, the testing and support focus of the buildpack will be oriented around active LTS and Stable releases.

            yeah as @jasonandmonte mentioned, passport-github2 worked for me! Thanks a lot.
            However, some people are saying that only passport-github works for them (checkout the thread that @jasonandmonte mentioned), so anyone who are in same issue in future can try both one. (Structure is almost the same.)

            QUESTION

            How is passport receiving the profile?
            Asked 2020-May-10 at 13:53

            I have implemented passport with GitHub-Strategy. Here's the Glith. It works wonderfully and I'm receiving the user-profile on redirect from GitHub.

            Now, I'm only trying to understand how this actually works 'under the hood'. I did not find any similar question here on stackoverflow, neither on Passport.

            So if I open Chrome Developer Tools during the Auth-Flow, the following seems to be going on when I click on Login with GitHub:

            1. the node route /auth/github is called
            2. node redirects to https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Frightful-exclusive-carriage.glitch.me%2Fauth%2Fgithub%2Fcallback&client_id=ccfcc73fac8223317176
            3. the user is presented with GitHub-Login-Page
            4. User types in GitHub-credentials and clicks 'Login'
            5. GitHub checks the credentials
            6. If valid credentials are provided, user is authenticated and GitHub redirects to the registered callback-endpoint, which is in my case: https://rightful-exclusive-carriage.glitch.me/auth/github/callback
            7. The callback-url has a url-parameter, e.g. ?code=02337a951c242b9202fd. It's interesting to note, that it's a GET-method and nothing else is provided.
            8. On the server, the passport.authenticate('github', ...) method is called inside of the /auth/github/callback-route.
            9. When the GithubStrategy is instanciated, a callback-function is passed with the signature function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, cb). Somehow magically, the accessToken and profile are fully available here. And I don't understand how this happens.

            How is passport receiving the profile? Is node.js making a server-side call to GitHub? Maybe with the ?code= ?

            ...

            ANSWER

            Answered 2020-May-10 at 13:53

            Yeah that is exactly what NodeJS is doing. This doesn't have anything to do with Passport.JS or Node.JS. It is the OAuth mechanism of how authorizations work.

            Whenever a the Identity provider like twitter/facebook calls your /callback with a ?code= query param It then hits another url and gets the AccessToken, RefreshToken and Idtoken(which is basically the user profile).
