HTTP Provider with integrated auth tokens

Based on fetch.

Install

npm i @cadolabs/auth-http-provider

or

yarn add @cadolabs/auth-http-provider

And require it for further usage

import AuthHTTPProvider from "@cadolabs/auth-http-provider"

Usage

First you need to create a factory

const factory = AuthHTTPProvider.make({ getAccessToken, saveTokens, refreshTokens, onError })

Options:

• getAccessToken – () => Promise<string> – returns saved access token
• saveTokens – (tokens: { accessToken: string, refreshToken: string }) => Promise<void> – save tokens
• refreshTokens – () => Promise<{ accessToken: string, refreshToken: string }> – refresh current tokens
• onError – Error => void – calls on error (Error object is just a request from fetch)

And after that you can create a http provider:

const provider = factory.create({ baseURL })

await provider.get("/some-url", { query, headers })
await provider.post("/some-url", { json, headers })
await provider.put("/some-url", { json, headers })
await provider.patch("/some-url", { json, headers })
await provider.delete("/some-url", { json, headers })

Options:

• baseURL – string – base url of API server (eg. https://api.example.com/v1)

Request options:

• query – object – object to be used in url as query params
• json – object – object to be passed as a request body (also adds Content-Type: application/json header)
• form – FormData – FormData object to be passed as a request body
• headers – object – any additional headers

How does it work

On each request performing it calls callback getAccessToken to get the auth token and makes the request with auth header Authorization: Bearer <token>.

When any request you made fails with 401 error code, it tries to refresh the tokens using callback refreshTokens and perform it one more time with the new access token. If it fails again, it calls onError callback and throws an error.

If request complited successfully with new token, it calls saveTokens to make your code save new tokens somewhere.

In other cases it behaves like a regular request-performing library.
