The boilerplate is tailored to create one driver per project and publish it as a package on npm. ## Getting started Following are the steps to get started. - Fork this repo and then clone it on your local machine. - Install all the dependencies using `npm` or `yarn` (whatever you prefer). - Open `package.json` file and update the package `name`, `description` and the `adonisjs` configuration block. ```json { "name": "package-name", "description": "", "adonisjs": { "types": "package-name", "providers": ["package-name"] } } ``` ## How is the code structured? The code for the driver is inside the `src` directory. Make sure to change the `YourDriver` directory name to the name of the driver. The driver implementation is mainly driven by the config, except the `user` and the `userFromToken` methods. Both of these methods are specific to the Oauth provider, and hence you have to implement them yourself. The `src/YourDriver/index.ts` file has the following exports. #### YourDriverAccessToken The type defines the properties that exist on the access token returned by your driver. You must read your OAuth provider documentation and list all the properties here. **Do not change the pre-defined `token` and `bearer` properties.** ```ts export type YourDriverAccessToken = { token: string type: 'bearer' } ``` #### YourDriverScopes Define a union of driver scopes accepted by your OAuth provider. You can check out the [official implementations](https://github.com/adonisjs/ally/blob/develop/adonis-typings/ally.ts#L236-L268) to see how they are defined. #### YourDriverConfig The type defines the configuration options that your driver expects. It must specify the following mentioned properties, along with any additional properties your driver needs to be functional. ```ts export type YourDriverConfig = { driver: 'YourDriverName' clientId: string clientSecret: string callbackUrl: string authorizeUrl?: string accessTokenUrl?: string userInfoUrl?: string } ``` #### YourDriver The driver implementation is a standard TypeScript class that extends the base `Oauth2Driver` class. The base driver class enforces you to define the following instance properties. - `authorizeUrl` is the URL for the redirect request. The user is redirected to this URL to authorize the request. Check out provider docs to find this URL. - `accessTokenUrl` is used to exchange the authorization code for the access token. Check out provider docs to find this URL. - `userInfoUrl` is used to make a request for getting the user profile information - `codeParamName` is the query string parameter for reading the **authorization code** after redirecting the user back to the callback URL. - `errorParamName` is the query string parameter for finding the error after redirecting the user back to the callback URL. - `stateCookieName` is the cookie name for storing the CSRF token (also known as the state). Make sure the cookie name does not collide with other drivers. A safer option is to prefix your driver name to the `oauth_state` keyword. - `stateParamName` is the query string parameter name for setting the state during the authorization redirect. - `scopeParamName` is the query string parameter name for sending the scopes during the authorization redirect. - `scopesSeparator` is the character to use for separating multiple parameters. ## Development checklist - [ ] I have renamed all `YourDriver` references to a more meaningful driver name inside the `src/YourDriver/index.ts` file. - [ ] I have renamed the `YourDriverProvider` inside the `providers/index.ts` file. - [ ] I have updated the driver name in the `Ally.extend` method call inside the `providers/index.ts` file. - [ ] I have defined the `authorizeUrl` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `accessTokenUrl` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `userInfoUrl` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `codeParamName` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `errorParamName` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `stateCookieName` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `stateParamName` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `scopeParamName` class property. - [ ] I have defined the `scopesSeparator` class property. - [ ] I have implemented the `accessDenied` class method. - [ ] I have implemented the `user` class method. - [ ] I have implemented the `userFromToken` class method. - [ ] I have updated the `standalone.ts` file to export the renamed driver file name. ## Testing the driver You can test the driver by installing it locally inside your AdonisJS application. Following are the steps you need to perform. - Compile the TypeScript code to JavaScript using the `npm run build` script. - `cd` into your AdonisJS project and install the package locally using `npm i path/to/your/driver/package`. - Run `node ace configure <package-name>`. The configure command needs the package name and not the package path. - Inform typescript about your driver by defining a mapping inside the `contracts/ally.ts` file. ```ts import { YourDriverConfig, YourDriver } from 'ally-custom-driver/build/standalone' interface SocialProviders { yourDriver: { config: YourDriverConfig implementation: YourDriver } } ``` - Define the config inside the `config/ally.ts` file. - And now you can use your driver like any other inbuilt driver. ## Release checklist Make sure to finish the following tasks before releasing your package. - [ ] I have renamed the `name` and `description` properties inside the `package.json` file. - [ ] I have renamed the `adonisjs.types` and `adonisjs.providers` properties to use the package name inside the `package.json` file. - [ ] I have updated the post-install instructions inside the `instructions.md` file. - [ ] I have updated the `adonisjs.env` property inside the `package.json` file to use the correct driver name for environment variables. ## FAQ's ### How do I define extra params during redirect? You can configure the redirect request by implementing the `configureRedirectRequest` method on the driver class. The method is already pre-defined and commented out. ```ts protected configureRedirectRequest(request: RedirectRequest<YourDriverScopes>) { request.param('key', 'value') } ``` ### How do I define extra fields/params for the access token request? You can configure the access token request by implementing the `configureAccessTokenRequest` method on the driver class. The method is already pre-defined and commented out. ```ts protected configureAccessTokenRequest(request: ApiRequest) { // Request body request.field('key', 'value') // Query param request.param('key', 'value') } ``` ## Share with others Are you excited about sharing your work with others?
