Passport strategy for authenticating with Evernote using the OAuth 1.0a API.
This module lets you authenticate using Evernote in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, Evernote authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
$ npm install passport-evernote
Before using passport-evernote
, you must first get an Evernote API key. If you
have not already done so, an API key can be requested at Evernote Developers.
Your will be issued an API key and secret, which need to be provided to the
strategy.
The Evernote authentication strategy authenticates users using an Evernote
account and OAuth tokens. The API key secret obtained from Evernote are
supplied as options when creating the strategy. The strategy also requires a
verify
callback, which receives the access token and corresponding secret as
arguments, as well as profile
which contains the authenticated user's Evernote
profile. The verify
callback must call cb
providing a user to complete
authentication.
passport.use(new EvernoteStrategy({
consumerKey: EVERNOTE_CONSUMER_KEY,
consumerSecret: EVERNOTE_CONSUMER_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/evernote/callback"
},
function(token, tokenSecret, profile, cb) {
User.findOrCreate({ evernoteId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return cb(err, user);
});
}
));
Use passport.authenticate()
, specifying the 'evernote'
strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/evernote',
passport.authenticate('evernote'));
app.get('/auth/evernote/callback',
passport.authenticate('evernote', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
Developers using the popular Express web framework can refer to an example as a starting point for their own web applications. The example shows how to authenticate users using Twitter. However, because both Twitter and Evernote use OAuth 1.0, the code is similar. Simply replace references to Twitter with corresponding references to Evernote.
Supply the sandbox endpoint URLs as options to the strategy, as follows:
new EvernoteStrategy({
requestTokenURL: 'https://sandbox.evernote.com/oauth',
accessTokenURL: 'https://sandbox.evernote.com/oauth',
userAuthorizationURL: 'https://sandbox.evernote.com/OAuth.action',
consumerKey: EVERNOTE_CONSUMER_KEY,
consumerSecret: EVERNOTE_CONSUMER_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/evernote/callback"
}
The test suite is located in the test/
directory. All new features are
expected to have corresponding test cases. Ensure that the complete test suite
passes by executing:
$ make test
The test suite covers 100% of the code base. All new feature development is expected to maintain that level. Coverage reports can be viewed by executing:
$ make test-cov
$ make view-cov
