Upgrade lib to use new PayPal URLs and sandbox support
Passport strategy for authenticating with PayPal using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using PayPal in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, PayPal authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
$ npm install passport-paypal-oauth
The PayPal authentication strategy authenticates users using a PayPal
account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify
callback, which
accepts these credentials and calls done
providing a user, as well as
options
specifying a app ID, app secret, and callback URL.
passport.use(new PayPalStrategy({
clientID: PAYPAL_APP_ID,
clientSecret: PAYPAL_APP_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://localhost:3000/auth/paypal/callback"
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ paypalId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Use passport.authenticate()
, specifying the 'paypal'
strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/paypal',
passport.authenticate('paypal'));
app.get('/auth/paypal/callback',
passport.authenticate('paypal', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successful authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
For a complete, working example, refer to the login example.
$ npm install --dev
$ make test
