kandi X-RAY | simple-oauth2 Summary
Simple OAuth2 is a Node.js client library for the OAuth 2.0 authorization framework. OAuth 2.0 is the industry-standard protocol for authorization, enabling third-party applications to obtain limited access to an HTTP service, either on behalf of a resource owner or by allowing the third-party application to obtain access on its own behalf.

QUESTION
I'm pretty new to FastAPI and OAuth2 in general. I just worked through the tutorial "Simple OAuth2 with Password and Bearer" and it mostly made sense, but there was one step that felt like magic to me..
How does the access token get stored onto the client and subsequently get passed into the client's requests?
My understanding of the flow is that it's basically
- User authenticates with their username and password (these get POST'ed to the
/token
endpoint). - User's credentials are validated, and the
/token
endpoint returns the access token (johndoe
) inside some JSON. (This is how the user receives his access token) - ???
- User make a subsequent request to a private endpoint, like
GET /users/me
. The user's request includes the headerAuthorization: Bearer johndoe
. (I don't think the docs mention this, but it's what I've gathered from inspecting the request in Chrome Developer Tools) - The authorization token is then used to lookup the user who made the request in (4)
Step (3) is the part that I don't understand. How does the access token seemingly get stored on the client, and then passed as a header into the next request?
DemoWhen you run the code in the tutorial, you get the following swagger docs. (Note the Authorize button.)
I click Authorize and enter my credentials. (username: johndoe
, password: secret
)
And now I can access the /users/me
endpoint.
Notice how the header Authorization: Bearer johndoe
was automagically included in my request.
Last notes:
- I've checked my cookies, session storage, and local storage and all are empty
- The authorization header disappears if I refresh the page or open a new tab
I suspect Swagger is doing something under the hood here, but I can't put my finger on it.

Answered 2021-Nov-05 at 12:41If you need persistence for the token you'd usually use localStorage or similar, but in SwaggerUIs specific case, the authentication information is kept internally in the library.
If you have enabled persistence SwaggerUI will persistent the access token to localStorage:
QUESTION
This express application uses passport to authenticate with azure. When a user authenticates, the user data is saved to an in-memory store, which then gets written to a session store.
When the express application re-starts, it loads the previously saved user data from the session store. However, passport does not recognize previously authenticated users and it requires them to re-authenticate. This is a problem, because the app is still in development and requires frequent re-starts.
I want the application to recognize previously authenticated users after the application restarts.
UPDATE: After some more research, I see the sessions are managed by the express-session
package. I have added the session-file-store
package to the code and configured it to save sessions. The sessions still do not persist.
This application began from this ms graph tutorial. It serializes and deserializes user data into a memory store and I added code to persist the data. But there is a disconnect between the stored user data and the session key stored in the browser.
The application stores the users by using their oid
as the key, like this:

QUESTION
I want to retrieve the Auth token from Google OAuth 2.0 ( i used this tutorial) However, when I want to Authenticate, it results in an infinite loop of redirecting to nothing, thus kind of refreshing the page. Without any error messages. I cannot find out whats going wrong.
This is my PHP code:
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Jan-23 at 07:29You are trying to fetch the auth URL via cURL - that can not work, this authorization flow requires user interaction. You need to redirect the user to this URL in their browser.
You can either redirect the user to that URL automatically; or you just put it into the href
attribute of a link, so that the user can click on that then, to start the whole process. (I would recommend the second option in general, but at least during development. With an automatic redirect, there’s a good chance you’ll create a circular redirect again, if anything goes wrong.)
