Auth0

You might be wondering what is this auth0 

it is used for authentication of you applications 

could be any apps 

1.SPA - Angular , React 

2.web app

3.Node 

here we will talk about the node use case and go with example 

moving ahead for now 

if your are not familiar with node dont worry its a funny exercise

for now walk with me 


we dont have to worry too much for authentication as the service is 

provided from auth0

 

create your node app 

install node 

https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/ 

choose your os and do the installation

once installed check for the version ' node -v  '

i assume u have installed so that u wil get the version for now 

since iam using LINUX this will look like

root@strings-desktop:/home/strings/js# node -v
v16.13.0

moving on to creating node app for now 

 

create a file app.js and paste the contents 

app.js/

const http = require('http');
const express = require('express');
const app = express();



const hostname = '127.0.0.1';
const port = 3000;

http.createServer(app)
  .listen(port, () => {
    console.log(`Listening on `);
  });


app.get('/', (req, res) => {
console.log('entering node app')
  res.send('Node app created');
});


in the folder start ur app with node app your node app will be hosted 


alright now we will move on to the interesting section of adding auth0 to node.


once u have signed up u wil get a client and domain which we will use to

configure in our app

next click on the getting started link on the left side of the screen


click on the create Application 


click on the node js which is highlighted and create


 

 




ok now have created the required things in auth0 side and u can the url 

which is our hosted url - http://localhost:3000

Node and Auth0 - Integration

 so now we have completed all the steps for integration  since we have the node and auth0 as two separate things the integration happens in the app.js  we need to modify the app.js with some auth0 code  app.js / const http = require('http'); const express = require('express'); var router = require('express').Router(); const { auth } = require('express-openid-connect'); const app = express(); app.use('/', router); const hostname = '127.0.0.1'; const port = 3000; http.createServer(app)   .listen(port, () => {     console.log(`Listening on `);   }); const config = {   authRequired: false,   auth0Logout: true,   secret: 'a long, randomly-generated string stored in env',   baseURL: 'http://localhost:3000',   clientID: 'QxpAXsXkzy0Vm2VdT6dFFS0VOKdrah67',   issuerBaseURL: 'https://dev-bnga041p.us.auth0.com' }; console.log(config) // auth router attaches /login, /logout, and /callback routes to the baseURL app.u
