A simple example of security and auth process

Example of Authentication using Google OAuth2 and Express.js

by using https protocol, we need tls certificates. It can be self-signed if you're in development, or signed by a thrusted source.

Requirements

self-signed cert (for development)

openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -days XXX

with XXX being the number of days the certificate is valid. this would generate "cert.pem" and "key.pem" files, and the last one is the private key.

Google OAuth2 credentials (in google developer website)

npm uninstall passport npm install passport@0.5
