Passport strategy for authenticating with Atlassian Applications using the OAuth 1.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using Atlassian Applications in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Atlassian Oauth authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
$ npm install passport-atlassian-oauth
The Atlassian OAuth authentication strategy authenticates users using an Atlassian Application
account and OAuth 1.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which
accepts these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well as
options specifying a applicationURL, consumerKey, and callback URL.
passport.use(new AtlassianOAuthStrategy({
applicationURL:"http://localhost:2990/jira", // This is the Jira server url
callbackURL:"http://localhost:5000/auth/atlassian-oauth/callback", // Your node instance
consumerKey:"atlassian-oauth-sample",
consumerSecret:"<RSA private key>",
},
function(token, tokenSecret, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ userid: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'atlassian-oauth' strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/atlassian-oauth',
passport.authenticate('atlassian-oauth'),
function (req, res) {
// The request will be redirected to the Atlassian app for authentication, so this
// function will not be called.
});
app.get('/auth/atlassian-oauth/callback',
passport.authenticate('atlassian-oauth', { failureRedirect:'/login' }),
function (req, res) {
res.redirect('/');
});
Configure an application link in the Atlassian Application pointing back to your NodeJS app.
In this application link configure OAuth Authentication
for incoming authentication. Set the consumer key to the same value that you used in your AtlassianOAuthStrategy.
Provide a matching RSA public key for the private key in use in your NodeJS application and finally configure a callback
url that will redirect to <NodeJS base URL>/auth/atlassian-oauth/callback (given the example above).
To generate a usable private and public RSA key set you can use the following commands from Jira knowledge base:
openssl genrsa -out jira.pem 1024
openssl rsa -in jira.pem -pubout -out jira.pub
For a complete, working example, refer to the login example.
You can npm install in that directory to set up express and dependencies, and npm start to start the server example script.
Currently this implementation only works with JIRA. Unfortunately there isn't yet an Atlassian cross-product API to retrieve
user details to populate the passport profile that's the same in all applications. Other Atlassian applications may
be added at a later date (changing the REST calls in strategy.js userProfile()).
