# OAuth2 (Client)
> An Elixir OAuth2 Client
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/scrogson/oauth2.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/scrogson/oauth2)
[![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/scrogson/oauth2/badge.svg?branch=master&service=github)](https://coveralls.io/github/scrogson/oauth2?branch=master)
## Install
```elixir
# mix.exs
def application do
# Add the application to your list of applications.
# This will ensure that it will be included in a release.
[applications: [:logger, :oauth2]]
end
defp deps do
# Add the dependency
[{:oauth2, "~> 0.8"}]
end
```
## Configure a serializer
This library can be configured to handle encoding and decoding requests and
responses automatically.
If you're using [Poison](https://hex.pm/packages/poison) for JSON in your
application, this library is already pre-configured to use it for `"application/json"`
request and response bodies. You will still need to include it as a dependency though.
If you need to handle different MIME types, you can simply configure it like so:
```elixir
# config/config.exs
config :oauth2,
serializers: %{
"application/vnd.api+json" => Poison,
"application/xml" => MyApp.XmlParser,
}
```
The `serializers` option is a map where the keys are MIME types and the values
are modules.
The modules are expected to export `encode!/1` and `decode!/1`.
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.XmlParser do
def encode!(data), do: # ...
def decode!(binary), do: # ...
end
```
## Debug mode
Some times its handy to see what's coming back from the response when getting
a token. You can configure OAuth2 to output the response like so:
```elixir
config :oauth2, debug: true
```
## Usage
Current implemented strategies:
- Authorization Code
- Password
- Client Credentials
### Authorization Code Flow (AuthCode Strategy)
```elixir
# Initialize a client with client_id, client_secret, site, and redirect_uri.
# The strategy option is optional as it defaults to `OAuth2.Strategy.AuthCode`.
client = OAuth2.Client.new([
strategy: OAuth2.Strategy.AuthCode, #default
client_id: "client_id",
client_secret: "abc123",
site: "https://auth.example.com",
redirect_uri: "https://example.com/auth/callback"
])
# Generate the authorization URL and redirect the user to the provider.
OAuth2.Client.authorize_url!(client)
# => "https://auth.example.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=client_id&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fauth%2Fcallback&response_type=code"
# Use the authorization code returned from the provider to obtain an access token.
client = OAuth2.Client.get_token!(client, code: "someauthcode")
# Use the access token to make a request for resources
resource = OAuth2.Client.get!(client, "/api/resource").body
```
## Write Your Own Strategy
Here's an example strategy for GitHub:
```elixir
defmodule GitHub do
use OAuth2.Strategy
# Public API
def client do
OAuth2.Client.new([
strategy: __MODULE__,
client_id: System.get_env("GITHUB_CLIENT_ID"),
client_secret: System.get_env("GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET"),
redirect_uri: "http://myapp.com/auth/callback",
site: "https://api.github.com",
authorize_url: "https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize",
token_url: "https://github.com/login/oauth/access_token"
])
end
def authorize_url! do
OAuth2.Client.authorize_url!(client(), scope: "user,public_repo")
end
# you can pass options to the underlying http library via `opts` parameter
def get_token!(params \\ [], headers \\ [], opts \\ []) do
OAuth2.Client.get_token!(client(), params, headers, opts)
end
# Strategy Callbacks
def authorize_url(client, params) do
OAuth2.Strategy.AuthCode.authorize_url(client, params)
end
def get_token(client, params, headers) do
client
|> put_param(:client_secret, client.client_secret)
|> put_header("accept", "application/json")
|> OAuth2.Strategy.AuthCode.get_token(params, headers)
end
end
```
Here's how you'd use the example GitHub strategy:
Generate the authorize URL and redirect the client for authorization.
```elixir
GitHub.authorize_url!
```
Capture the `code` in your callback route on your server and use it to obtain an access token.
```elixir
client = GitHub.get_token!(code: code)
```
Use the access token to access desired resources.
```elixir
user = OAuth2.Client.get!(client, "/user").body
# Or
case OAuth2.Client.get(client, "/user") do
{:ok, %OAuth2.Response{status_code: 401, body: body}} ->
Logger.error("Unauthorized token")
{:ok, %OAuth2.Response{status_code: status_code, body: user}} when status_code in [200..399] ->
user
{:error, %OAuth2.Error{reason: reason}} ->
Logger.error("Error: #{inspect reason}")
end
```
