Using nodejs passport-google-oauth2 without redirect url
I am using nodepm npm passport-google-oauth2 module
I am currently using it exactly as his example shows, with a redirect URI that google oauth will call back with after successful authentication:
Example:
Server side:
var GoogleStrategy = require( 'passport-google-oauth2' ).Strategy;
passport.use(new GoogleStrategy({
clientID: GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://yourdormain:3000/auth/google/callback",
passReqToCallback : true
},
function(request, accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ googleId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Client side:
app.get('/auth/google',
passport.authenticate('google', { scope:
[ 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login',
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.profile.emails.read' ] }
));
app.get( '/auth/google/callback',
passport.authenticate( 'google', {
successRedirect: '/auth/google/success',
failureRedirect: '/auth/google/failure'
}));
I know there is a way to use Google OAuth without a redirect; it just stays on the same page somehow (google SSO). I think you can do it with just help GoogleVerifier
, not with construction new GoogleAuthorizationCodeTokenRequest()
(Java examples), but I'm lost at this point.
Questions:
-
How to use google oauth2 without redirect URI? (I know it can be done with the GoogleVerifier object in Java).
-
Am I using the wrong google SSO module in NodeJS? Is the module above for google single sign-on using OAuth2? This is for Google OAuth2, but is this the SSO way?
Thanks in advance for your help
