Passport strategy for authenticating with Gowalla using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using Gowalla in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Gowalla authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
$ npm install passport-gowalla
The Gowalla authentication strategy authenticates users using a Gowalla account
and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which accepts
these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well as options
specifying a client ID, client secret, and callback URL.
passport.use(new GowallaStrategy({
clientID: GOWALLA_API_KEY,
clientSecret: GOWALLA_SECRET_KEY,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/gowalla/callback"
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ gowallaId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'gowalla' strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/gowalla',
passport.authenticate('gowalla'));
app.get('/auth/gowalla/callback',
passport.authenticate('gowalla', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
For a complete, working example, refer to the login example.
