快递护照-linkedin，提出api请求

Question

I'm using express and passport-linkedin . The authentication flow works fine, I can get the user's basic profile, and now I want to make an API request. /v1/people/~/connections , for example.

I've done some reading and trial and error, but all I get is Wrong Authentication Scheme or Internal Server Error .

I have the token and tokenSecret given to the verify callback of the LinkedInStrategy instance. How do I go from those to an authorized API request?

Answer 1

I use a 'isLegit' function running as middleware.

Example :

app.get('/api/mysecuredpage',isLegit,function(req,res){
    res.render('mysecurepage');
});

function isLegit(req, res, next) {
    // if user is authenticated in the session, next
    if (req.isAuthenticated())
        return next();

    // if they aren't send an error
    res.json({error:'You must be logged in to view information'});
}

EDIT :

To make a request to the linkedIn api, just set up your request with the following options :

  var options = { 
        url: 'https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/connections',
        headers: { 'x-li-format': 'json' },
        qs: { oauth2_access_token: user.access_token }
      };
   request(options,function(err,res,body){
     console.log(body);
   });

access_token is the name of the variable in your passport strategy, it could be different depending how you've set it up. basically, it's one of the fields of your authenticated user ;-)
