Authentication with Squiz Matrix from Node.js

Package Exports

  • node-matrix-auth

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (node-matrix-auth) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Authentication with Squiz Matrix from Node.js

Example

var matrixAuth = require('node-matrix-auth');

var auth = matrixAuth({
  auth: 'user:pass',
  admin: 'http://mysource.matrix/_admin',
  wsdl: 'http://mysource.matrix/_web_services/soap?wsdl'
});

auth.on('error', function(err) {
  console.error(err);
});

auth.on('success', function(data) {
  console.log(data);
});

API

var matrixAuth = require('node-matrix-auth');

var auth = matrixAuth(opts, cb);

The opts object is used to pass configuration to matrixAuth.

  • opts.auth: The user credentials you wish to authenticate with in the form of 'user:pass'.
  • opts.admin: The Admin URI of a Matrix system.
  • opts.wsdl: The URI of a configured SOAP API.

The optional callback cb(err, data) is called when either the error or success event is fired.

auth._ready;

The private method auth._ready returns true if authentication was successful.

Events

matrixAuth returns an instance of EventEmitter, and exposes the following events:

auth.on('success', function(data) {});

The success event returns a JavaScript Object with the following properties:

  • data.auth: The user authentication information
  • data.admin: The result of passing opts.admin into url.parse
  • data.wsdl: The result of passing opts.wsdl into url.parse
  • data.nonce: The nonce token used to sign certain requests to Matrix.
  • data.cookie: The session cookie used to sign requests to Matrix.
  • data.sessionId: The ID assigned to the authenticated session.
  • data.sessionKey: The key assigned to the authenticated session.

auth.on('error', function(err) {});

The error event returns an Error object and is fired if an error occurs during authentication.

Requirements

  • Squiz Matrix ~4.18.0
  • A user accout with backend or greater privillages
  • A SOAP API with the LoginUser service enabled
