This library currently supports:

• OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code Flow
• Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE)

Prerequisites: Node.js.

Angular

First, create an empty project with Angular CLI. You must add Angular routing for this schematic to work.

npm i -g @angular/cli
ng new secure-angular --routing
cd secure-angular

Then, integrate your Angular app with Okta or Auth0.

Okta for Angular

1. Install the Okta CLI.
2. Run okta register to create an account, followed by okta apps create.
3. Choose Single Page App and use http://localhost:4200/callback for the Redirect URI.

In your secure-angular project, add @oktadev/schematics:

ng add @oktadev/schematics

Use the values that the Okta CLI provides for the issuer and client ID when prompted.

Run npm start, open http://localhost:4200 in your browser, and sign in. 🥳

See the Okta Angular SDK for more information.

You can also use the Okta Admin Console:

• Log in to your Okta instance (or create an account if you don't have one). Go to Applications > Create App Integration > OIDC.
• Choose Single-Page Application as the application type and click Next.
• Add http://localhost:4200/callback as a Sign-in redirect URI and http://localhost:4200 as a Sign-out redirect URI.
• Specify http://localhost:4200 as a Trusted Origin and click Save.

Auth0 for Angular

1. Install the Auth0 CLI.
2. Run auth0 login to register your account, followed by auth0 apps create.
3. Specify a name and description of your choosing.
4. Select Single Page Web Application and use http://localhost:4200/home for the Callback URLs.
5. Use http://localhost:4200 for the rest of the URLs.

In your secure-angular project, add @oktadev/schematics with the --auth0 flag:

ng add @oktadev/schematics --auth0

Use the values that the Auth0 CLI provides for the issuer and client ID when prompted.

Run npm start, open http://localhost:4200 in your browser, and sign in. 🥳

See the Auth0 Angular SDK for more information.

You can also use the Auth0 Console:

• Log in to Auth0 or create an account if you don't have one. Go to Applications > Create Application.
• Choose Single Page Web Applications as the application type and click Create.
• Select the Settings tab.
• Add http://localhost:4200/home as an Allowed Callback URL and http://localhost:4200 as a Logout URL.
• Specify http://localhost:4200 as an Allowed Origin and click Save Changes at the bottom.

The Okta CLI will create an .okta.env file in the current directory. It will have the values you need. After you use them in the command below, you can delete this file.

npm i -D @oktadev/schematics
schematics @oktadev/schematics:add-auth --issuer=$issuer \
  --client-id=$clientId --client-secret=$clientSecret

🚨 This process will create an .env file will be generated with your credentials. Make sure to add *.env to .gitignore and don't check it into source control!

Start your app and authenticate with Okta at http://localhost:3000. 🎊

npm start

See the Okta OIDC Middleware SDK for more information.

You can also create your app using the Okta Admin Console:

• Log into the Okta Developer Dashboard (or create an account if you don't have one), click Applications then Create App Integration > OIDC.
• Choose Web as the application type and click Next.
• Add a Sign-in redirect URI of http://localhost:3000/callback.

npm install -g @angular-devkit/schematics-cli

Then install and run the add-auth schematic in your express-app project with the --auth0 flag.

Use the values that the Auth0 CLI provides for the issuer and client ID. You may have to use auth0 apps open to get the client secret for your app.

npm i -D @oktadev/schematics
schematics @oktadev/schematics:add-auth --issuer=$issuer \
  --client-id=$clientId --client-secret=$clientSecret --auth0

🚨 This process will create an .env file with your credentials. Make sure to add *.env to .gitignore and don't check it into source control!

Start your app and authenticate with Auth0 at http://localhost:3000. 🎊

npm start

See the Auth0 Express OpenID Connect SDK for more information.

You can also use the Auth0 Console:

• Choose Regular Web Application as the application type and click Create.
• Select the Settings tab.
• Add http://localhost:3000/callback as an Allowed Callback URL and http://localhost:3000 as a Logout URL.
• Click Save Changes at the bottom.

Testing

This project supports unit tests and integration tests.

npm test will run the unit tests, using Jasmine as a runner and test framework.

./test-app.sh angular will create an Angular project with Angular CLI, install this project, and make sure all the project's tests pass. Other options include react, react-ts, vue, vue-ts, ionic, ionic, react-native, and express. You can also add -auth0 to any of these options.

./test-all.sh will test all the options for both Okta and Auth0: Angular, React, React with TypeScript, Vue, Vue with TypeScript, Ionic with Capacitor, React Native, and Express.

Publishing

To publish, simply do:

npm publish

That's it!

Contributing

If you'd like to modify this library, and contribute your changes, you can start by forking it to your own GitHub repository. Then, clone it to your hard drive.

git clone [email protected]:<your username>/schematics.git
cd schematics

Create a new branch for your changes:
