@axa-fr/oidc-client the lightest and securest library to manage authentication with OpenID Connect (OIDC) and OAuth2 protocol. It is compatible with all OIDC providers. @axa-fr/oidc-client is a pure javascript library. It works with any JavaScript framework or library.

We provide a wrapper @axa-fr/react-oidc for React (compatible next.js) and we expect soon to provide one for Vue, Angular and Svelte.

Sample React Oicd

About

@axa-fr/react is:

  • Secure :
    • With Demonstrating Proof of Possession (DPoP), your access_token and refresh_token are not usable outside your browser context (big protection)
    • With the use of Service Worker, your tokens (refresh_token and/or access_token) are not accessible to the JavaScript client code (if you follow good practices from FAQ section)
    • OIDC using client side Code Credential Grant with pkce only
  • Lightweight : Unpacked Size on npm is 274 kB
  • Simple
    • refresh_token and access_token are auto refreshed in background
    • with the use of the Service Worker, you do not need to inject the access_token in every fetch, you have only to configure OidcTrustedDomains.js file
  • Multiple Authentication :
    • You can authenticate many times to the same provider with different scope (for example you can acquire a new 'payment' scope for a payment)
    • You can authenticate to multiple different providers inside the same SPA (single page application) website
  • Flexible :
    • Work with Service Worker (more secure) and without for older browser (less secure).
    • You can disable Service Worker if you want (but less secure) and just use SessionStorage or LocalStorage mode.

The service worker catch access_token and refresh_token that will never be accessible to the client.

Getting Started

npm install @axa-fr/react-oidc --save

# To install or update OidcServiceWorker.js file, you can run
node ./node_modules/@axa-fr/react-oidc/bin/copy-service-worker-files.mjs public

# If you have a "public" folder, the 2 files will be created :
# ./public/OidcServiceWorker.js <-- will be updated at each "npm install"
# ./public/OidcTrustedDomains.js <-- won't be updated if already exist

WARNING : If you use Service Worker mode, the OidcServiceWorker.js file should always be up to date with the version of the library. You may setup a postinstall script in your package.json file to update it at each npm install. For example :

  "scripts": {
    ...
    "postinstall": "node ./node_modules/@axa-fr/react-oidc/bin/copy-service-worker-files.mjs public"
  },

If you need a very secure mode where refresh_token and access_token will be hide behind a service worker that will proxify requests. The only file you should edit is "OidcTrustedDomains.js".

// OidcTrustedDomains.js

// Add bellow trusted domains, access tokens will automatically injected to be send to
// trusted domain can also be a path like https://www.myapi.com/users,
// then all subroute like https://www.myapi.com/useers/1 will be authorized to send access_token to.

// Domains used by OIDC server must be also declared here
const trustedDomains = {
  default: {
    oidcDomains: ['https://demo.duendesoftware.com'],
    accessTokenDomains: ['https://www.myapi.com/users'],
  },
};

// Service worker will continue to give access token to the JavaScript client
// Ideal to hide refresh token from client JavaScript, but to retrieve access_token for some
// scenarios which require it. For example, to send it via websocket connection.
trustedDomains.config_show_access_token = {
  oidcDomains: ['https://demo.duendesoftware.com'],
  accessTokenDomains: ['https://www.myapi.com/users'],
  showAccessToken: true,
  // convertAllRequestsToCorsExceptNavigate: false, // default value is false
  // setAccessTokenToNavigateRequests: true, // default value is true
};

// DPoP (Demonstrating Proof of Possession) will be activated for the following domains
trustedDomains.config_with_dpop = {
  domains: ['https://demo.duendesoftware.com'],
  demonstratingProofOfPossession: true,
  demonstratingProofOfPossessionOnlyWhenDpopHeaderPresent: true, // default value is false, inject DPOP token only when DPOP header is present
  // Optional, more details bellow
  /*demonstratingProofOfPossessionConfiguration: {  
   importKeyAlgorithm: {
     name: 'ECDSA',
     namedCurve: 'P-256',
     hash: {name: 'ES256'}
   },
   signAlgorithm: {name: 'ECDSA', hash: {name: 'SHA-256'}},
   generateKeyAlgorithm: {
     name: 'ECDSA',
     namedCurve: 'P-256'
   },
   digestAlgorithm: { name: 'SHA-256' },
   jwtHeaderAlgorithm : 'ES256'
 }*/
};

// Setting allowMultiTabLogin to true will enable storing login-specific parameters (state, nonce, code verifier)
// separately for each tab. This will prevent errors when logins are initiated from multiple tabs.
trustedDomains.config_multi_tab_login = {
  domains: ['https://demo.duendesoftware.com'],
  allowMultiTabLogin: true,
};

Run The Demo

git clone https://github.com/AxaFrance/oidc-client.git
cd oidc-client
pnpm install
cd /examples/react-oidc-demo
pnpm install
pnpm start
# then navigate to http://localhost:4200

How to consume

"useOidc" returns all props from the Hook :

import React from 'react';
import { useOidc } from './oidc';

export const Home = () => {
  const { login, logout, renewTokens, isAuthenticated } = useOidc();

  return (
    <div className="container-fluid mt-3">
      <div className="card">
        <div className="card-body">
          <h5 className="card-title">Welcome !!!</h5>
          <p className="card-text">React Demo Application protected by OpenId Connect</p>
          {!isAuthenticated && (
            <button type="button" className="btn btn-primary" onClick={() => login('/profile')}>
              Login
            </button>
          )}
          {isAuthenticated && (
            <button type="button" className="btn btn-primary" onClick={() => logout()}>
              logout
            </button>
          )}
          {isAuthenticated && (
            <button type="button" className="btn btn-primary" onClick={() => renewTokens()}>
              renewTokens
            </button>
          )}
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

The Hook method exposes :

  • isAuthenticated : if the user is logged in or not
  • logout: logout function (return a promise)
  • login: login function 'return a promise'
  • renewTokens: renew tokens function 'return a promise'

How to secure a component

OidcSecure component trigger authentication in case user is not authenticated. So, the children of that component can be accessible only once you are connected.

import React from 'react';
import { OidcSecure } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';

const AdminSecure = () => (
  <OidcSecure>
    <h1>My sub component</h1>
  </OidcSecure>
);

// adding the oidc user in the props
export default AdminSecure;

How to secure a component: HOC method

withOidcSecure will act the same as OidcSecure,it will also trigger authentication in case the user is not authenticated.

import React from 'react';
import { Switch, Route } from 'react-router-dom';
import { withOidcSecure } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';
import Home from '../Pages/Home';
import Dashboard from '../Pages/Dashboard';
import Admin from '../Pages/Admin';

const Routes = () => (
  <Switch>
    <Route exact path="/" component={Home} />
    <Route path="/dashboard" component={withOidcSecure(Dashboard)} />
    <Route path="/admin" component={Admin} />
    <Route path="/home" component={Home} />
  </Switch>
);

export default Routes;

How to get "Access Token": Hook method

import { useOidcAccessToken } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';

const DisplayAccessToken = () => {
  const { accessToken, accessTokenPayload } = useOidcAccessToken();

  if (!accessToken) {
    return <p>you are not authentified</p>;
  }
  return (
    <div className="card text-white bg-info mb-3">
      <div className="card-body">
        <h5 className="card-title">Access Token</h5>
        <p style={{ color: 'red', backgroundColor: 'white' }}>
          Please consider to configure the ServiceWorker in order to protect your application from
          XSRF attacks. ""access_token" and "refresh_token" will never be accessible from your
          client side javascript.
        </p>
        {<p className="card-text">{JSON.stringify(accessToken)}</p>}
        {accessTokenPayload != null && (
          <p className="card-text">{JSON.stringify(accessTokenPayload)}</p>
        )}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

How to get IDToken: Hook method

import { useOidcIdToken } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';

const DisplayIdToken = () => {
  const { idToken, idTokenPayload } = useOidcIdToken();

  if (!idToken) {
    return <p>you are not authentified</p>;
  }

  return (
    <div className="card text-white bg-info mb-3">
      <div className="card-body">
        <h5 className="card-title">ID Token</h5>
        {<p className="card-text">{JSON.stringify(idToken)}</p>}
        {idTokenPayload != null && <p className="card-text">{JSON.stringify(idTokenPayload)}</p>}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

How to get User Information: Hook method

import { useOidcUser, UserStatus } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';

const DisplayUserInfo = () => {
  const { oidcUser, oidcUserLoadingState } = useOidcUser();

  switch (oidcUserLoadingState) {
    case UserStatus.Loading:
      return <p>User Information are loading</p>;
    case UserStatus.Unauthenticated:
      return <p>you are not authenticated</p>;
    case UserStatus.LoadingError:
      return <p>Fail to load user information</p>;
    default:
      return (
        <div className="card text-white bg-success mb-3">
          <div className="card-body">
            <h5 className="card-title">User information</h5>
            <p className="card-text">{JSON.stringify(oidcUser)}</p>
          </div>
        </div>
      );
  }
};

How to get a fetch that inject Access_Token: Hook method

If you are not using the service worker. The Fetch function needs to send AccessToken. This hook will give you a wrapped fetch that adds the access token for you.

import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { useOidcFetch, OidcSecure } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';

const DisplayUserInfo = ({ fetch }) => {
  const [oidcUser, setOidcUser] = useState(null);
  const [isLoading, setLoading] = useState(true);

  useEffect(() => {
    const fetchUserInfoAsync = async () => {
      const res = await fetch('https://demo.duendesoftware.com/connect/userinfo');
      if (res.status != 200) {
        return null;
      }
      return res.json();
    };
    let isMounted = true;
    fetchUserInfoAsync().then(userInfo => {
      if (isMounted) {
        setLoading(false);
        setOidcUser(userInfo);
      }
    });
    return () => {
      isMounted = false;
    };
  }, []);

  if (isLoading) {
    return <>Loading</>;
  }

  return (
    <div className="container mt-3">
      <div className="card text-white bg-success mb-3">
        <div className="card-body">
          <h5 className="card-title">User information</h5>
          {oidcUser != null && <p className="card-text">{JSON.stringify(oidcUser)}</p>}
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

export const FetchUserHook = () => {
  const { fetch } = useOidcFetch();
  return (
    <OidcSecure>
      <DisplayUserInfo fetch={fetch} />
    </OidcSecure>
  );
};

How to get a fetch that inject Access_Token : HOC method

If your are not using the service worker. Fetch function need to send AccessToken. This HOC give you a wrapped fetch that add the access token for you.

import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { useOidcFetch, OidcSecure } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';

const DisplayUserInfo = ({ fetch }) => {
  const [oidcUser, setOidcUser] = useState(null);
  const [isLoading, setLoading] = useState(true);

  useEffect(() => {
    const fetchUserInfoAsync = async () => {
      const res = await fetch('https://demo.duendesoftware.com/connect/userinfo');
      if (res.status != 200) {
        return null;
      }
      return res.json();
    };
    let isMounted = true;
    fetchUserInfoAsync().then(userInfo => {
      if (isMounted) {
        setLoading(false);
        setOidcUser(userInfo);
      }
    });
    return () => {
      isMounted = false;
    };
  }, []);

  if (isLoading) {
    return <>Loading</>;
  }

  return (
    <div className="container mt-3">
      <div className="card text-white bg-success mb-3">
        <div className="card-body">
          <h5 className="card-title">User information</h5>
          {oidcUser != null && <p className="card-text">{JSON.stringify(oidcUser)}</p>}
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

const UserInfoWithFetchHoc = withOidcFetch(fetch)(DisplayUserInfo);
export const FetchUserHoc = () => (
  <OidcSecure>
    <UserInfoWithFetchHoc />
  </OidcSecure>
);

Components override

You can inject your own components. All components definition receive props configurationName. Please checkout the demo for more complete example.

import React from 'react';
import { render } from 'react-dom';
import { BrowserRouter as Router } from 'react-router-dom';
import { OidcProvider } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';
import Header from './Layout/Header';
import Routes from './Router';

// This configuration use hybrid mode
// ServiceWorker are used if available (more secure) else tokens are given to the client
// You need to give inside your code the "access_token" when using fetch
const configuration = {
  client_id: 'interactive.public.short',
  redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:4200/authentication/callback',
  silent_redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:4200/authentication/silent-callback',
  scope: 'openid profile email api offline_access',
  authority: 'https://demo.identityserver.io',
  service_worker_relative_url: '/OidcServiceWorker.js',
  service_worker_only: false,
};

const Loading = () => <p>Loading</p>;
const AuthenticatingError = () => <p>Authenticating error</p>;
const Authenticating = () => <p>Authenticating</p>;
const SessionLost = () => <p>Session Lost</p>;
const ServiceWorkerNotSupported = () => <p>Not supported</p>;
const CallBackSuccess = () => <p>Success</p>;

//const [isSessionLost, setIsSessionLost] = useState(false);

//const onSessionLost = ()=>{
//  setIsSessionLost(true);
//}

const App = () => (
  <OidcProvider
    configuration={configuration}
    loadingComponent={Loading}
    authenticatingErrorComponent={AuthenticatingError}
    authenticatingComponent={Authenticating}
    sessionLostComponent={SessionLost}
    //onSessionLost={onSessionLost} // If set "sessionLostComponent" is not displayed and onSessionLost callback is called instead
    serviceWorkerNotSupportedComponent={ServiceWorkerNotSupported}
    callbackSuccessComponent={CallBackSuccess}
  >
    {/* isSessionLost && <SessionLost />*/}
    <Router>
      <Header />
      <Routes />
    </Router>
  </OidcProvider>
);

render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'));

How It Works

These components encapsulate the use of "@axa-fr/vanilla-oidc" in order to hide workflow complexity. Internally, native History API is used to be router library agnostic.

More information about OIDC

NextJS

To work with NextJS you need to inject your own history surcharge like the sample below.

component/layout.js

import { OidcProvider } from '@axa-fr/react-oidc';
import { useRouter } from 'next/router';

const configuration = {
  client_id: 'interactive.public.short',
  redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:3001/#authentication/callback',
  silent_redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:3001/#authentication/silent-callback', // Optional activate silent-login that use cookies between OIDC server and client javascript to restore the session
  scope: 'openid profile email api offline_access',
  authority: 'https://demo.duendesoftware.com',
};

const onEvent = (configurationName, eventName, data) => {
  console.log(`oidc:${configurationName}:${eventName}`, data);
};

export default function Layout({ children }) {
  const router = useRouter();
  const withCustomHistory = () => {
    return {
      replaceState: url => {
        router
          .replace({
            pathname: url,
          })
          .then(() => {
            window.dispatchEvent(new Event('popstate'));
          });
      },
    };
  };

  return (
    <>
      <OidcProvider
        configuration={configuration}
        onEvent={onEvent}
        withCustomHistory={withCustomHistory}
      >
        <main>{children}</main>
      </OidcProvider>
    </>
  );
}

For more information checkout the NextJS React OIDC demo

Hash route

react-oidc work also with hash router.

export const configurationIdentityServerWithHash = {
  client_id: 'interactive.public.short',
  redirect_uri: window.location.origin + '#authentication-callback',
  silent_redirect_uri: window.location.origin + '#authentication-silent-callback',
  scope: 'openid profile email api offline_access',
  authority: 'https://demo.duendesoftware.com',
  refresh_time_before_tokens_expiration_in_second: 70,
  service_worker_relative_url: '/OidcServiceWorker.js',
  service_worker_only: false,
};
