Passport strategy for authenticating with weibo using the OAuth 2.0 API.

This module lets you authenticate using weibo in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, weibo authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.

Installation

$ npm install passport-weibo

Usage

Configure Strategy

The weibo authentication strategy authenticates users using a weibo 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 WeiboStrategy({
    clientID: app_key,
    clientSecret: app_secret,
    callbackURL: "http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/weibo/callback"
  },
  function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
    User.findOrCreate({ weiboId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
      return done(err, user);
    });
  }
));

Authenticate Requests

Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'weibo' strategy, to authenticate requests.

For example, as route middleware in an Express application:

app.get('/auth/weibo',
  passport.authenticate('weibo'),
  function(req, res){
    // The request will be redirected to weibo for authentication, so this
    // function will not be called.
  });

app.get('/auth/weibo/callback', 
  passport.authenticate('weibo', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
  function(req, res) {
    // Successful authentication, redirect home.
    res.redirect('/');
  });
