Please take a look at this basic login/token process using passport basic strategy for a Rest API:
the route:
router.get('/token', authenticate.basic, controller.token);
authenticate basic strategy:
authenticate.basic = passport.authenticate('basic', {session: false});
/* implementation of the Basic Strategy*/
passport.use('basic', new BasicStrategy(function(username, password, done) {
authenticationService.login(username, password).then(function(user) {
if (!user) {
return done(null, false, { message: 'Login failed' });
}
return done(null, user);
}).catch(function(e) {
return done(e)
});
}));
token controller (route handler):
controller.token = function(req, res, next) {
if (!req.user) {
// TODO fix this dead branch
return res.json(401, {error: "Login failed"});
}
authService.issueToken(req.user).then(function(token) {
var user = {
user_id: req.user.id,
access_token: token
}
return res.json(user);
}).catch(function(e) {
return next(e);
});
};
As mentioned in the documentation :
By default, if authentication fails , Passport will respond with a 401 Unauthorized status, and any additional route handlers will not be invoked . If authentication succeeds, the next handler will be invoked and the req.user property will be set to the authenticated user.
Is there a way to bypass this behavior and invoke the route handler even if the authentication fails ?
You're looking for Passport's " Custom callback " feature.
Basically, you need to give the authenticate method a third argument to override the default behavior. This implies that the application becomes responsible for logging in the user, which is simply a matter of calling the req.login()
method.
authenticate.basic = function (req, res, next) {
passport.authenticate('basic', {
session: false
}, function(err, user, info) {
if (err) {
// Authentication failed, you can look at the "info" object
return next(err);
}
if (!user) {
// The user is not logged in (no token or cookie)
return res.redirect('/login');
}
req.login(user, function(err) {
if (err) {
// Something wrong happened while logging in, look at the err object
return next(err);
}
// Everything's good!
return res.redirect('/users/' + user.username);
});
})(req, res, next);
}
