Fake OAuth2

This project is an OAuth2 server implementation for testing purposes. See RFC 6749 .

It is useful for you if you are developing an OAuth2 client application and want to stub the server for testing purposes. In this context the subject under testing (SUT) is your client application and this project can act as a stub of the external OAuth service, which your application is supposed to use. By testing I mean automated end-to-end testing or manual testing, not unit testing.

Currently under development.

Building & running

  • clone this repo
  • run npm install
  • start the server using node server.js
  • you can run the unittests using npm test

Configuration

The application can be configured using environment variables before executing node server.js . The default configuration matches the relative URIs of the google OAuth2 implementation.

List of environment variables:

Variable name Default value Description
PORT 8282 The port the server listens on
EXPECTED_CLIENT_ID dummy-client-id The client identifier which your SUT should send to the OAuth2 server in authentication requests and access token requests.
EXPECTED_CLIENT_SECRET dummy-client-secret The client secret which your SUT should send to the OAuth2 server in access token requests.
AUTH_REQUEST_PATH /o/oauth2/v2/auth The HTTP path of the OAuth2 authorization endpoint which the fake server listens on
ACCESS_TOKEN_REQUEST_PATH /oauth2/v4/token The HTTP path of the access token request which the fake server listens on
PERMITTED_REDIRECT_URLS http://localhost:8181/auth/login comma-separated list of permitted redirection endpoints

All those environment variables are defined in .env file with some examples. To use them, set them with your environment values and run $node server.js or $npm start. Those variables are then magically put in the process environment variables using dotenv.
