ng2-cordova-oauth is an Angular 2 Apache Cordova Oauth library. The purpose of this library is to quickly and easily obtain an access token from various web services to use their APIs.
- Apache Cordova 5+
- Apache Cordova InAppBrowser Plugin
- Apache Cordova Whitelist Plugin
From the root of your Apache Cordova project, execute the following:
npm install ng2-cordova-oauth --save
This will install ng2-cordova-oauth and its dependencies.
Once installed, you need to inject the library classes into every class in which you wish to use them. For example, if you wish to use Facebook oauth in a particular class, it would look something like:
import {CordovaOauth, Facebook, Google} from 'ng2-cordova-oauth/core';
Each provider will have it's own class. At this point, ng2-cordova-oauth is installed into your project and is ready for use.
Each web service API acts independently in this library. However, when configuring each web service, one thing must remain consistent. You must use http://localhost/callback as your callback / redirect URI. This is because this library will perform tasks when this URL is found.
Facebook({"clientId": String, "appScope": Array<String>, "redirectUri": String, "authType": String});
Google({"clientId": String, "appScope": Array<String>, "redirectUri": String});
Imgur({"clientId": String, "redirectUri": String});
Meetup({"clientId": String, "redirectUri": String});
Each API call returns a promise. The success callback will provide a response object and the error callback will return a string.
this.cordovaOauth = new CordovaOauth(new Facebook({clientId: "CLIENT_ID_HERE", appScope: ["email"]}));
this.cordovaOauth.login().then((success) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(success));
}, (error) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(error));
});
As of Apache Cordova 5.0.0, the whitelist plugin must be used in order to reach external web services.
This library will NOT work with a web browser, ionic serve, or ionic view. It MUST be used via installing to a device or simulator.
import {App, Platform} from 'ionic/ionic';
import {HomePage} from './pages/home/home';
import {CordovaOauth, Facebook} from 'ng2-cordova-oauth/core';
@App({
template: `
<ion-nav [root]="root"></ion-nav>
<ion-overlay></ion-overlay>
`,
})
export class MyApp {
constructor(platform: Platform) {
this.platform = platform;
this.root = HomePage;
this.cordovaOauth = new CordovaOauth(new Facebook({clientId: "CLIENT_ID_HERE", appScope: ["email"]}));
this.platform.ready().then(() => {
this.cordovaOauth.login().then((success) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(success));
}, (error) => {
console.log(error);
});
});
}
}
Coming soon...
All contributions must be made via the development
branch. This keeps the project more maintainable in terms of versioning as well as code control.
