Doorkeeper Devise Client

Rails webapp acting as a Client application for interacting with another Rails webapp acting as a Doorkeeper-based OAuth Provider

This app can be used to test a Doorkeeper-based OAuth Provider. For e.g. the doorkeeper provider example.

This application is built on Rails 5 and Ruby 2.3.2 and uses following additional components:

About Doorkeeper Gem

Please refer the doorkeeper gem documentation for details

Installation & Configuration

If you want to run the application by yourself here are the steps for you.

Clone the repo

  1. Open a terminal

  2. Change the current directory to a desired location where you would like to place the application. For e.g. ~/jignesh/ror_applications. In the instructions below we would refer to it APP_ROOT_PARENT.

  3. APP_ROOT_PARENT$ mkdir doorkeeper-devise-client

  4. Change directory to the newly created folder

  APP_ROOT_PARENT$ cd doorkeeper-devise-client
  doorkeeper-devise-client$
  1. Now clone the repo in the current directory doorkeeper-devise-client. In the instructions below we would refer to it APP_ROOT.
  APP_ROOT$ git clone https://github.com/jiggneshhgohel/doorkeeper-devise-client.git .

Note the . at the end. It indicates that clone the repo in current directory.

  1. Now change directory in following manner so that gemset wrappers gets created
  APP_ROOT$ cd ../<APP_ROOT>

Relevant files .ruby-gemset and .ruby-version can be located under the APP_ROOT

Install bundler

  1. Assuming the current directory is APP_ROOT, run following command:
  APP_ROOT$ gem install bundler

to install the bundler gem in the newly created gemset.

Install Gems

  1. Assuming the current directory is APP_ROOT, run following command:
  APP_ROOT$ bundle install

to install all the gems defined in Gemfile under the APP_ROOT

Setup Database

  1. Assuming the current directory is APP_ROOT, run following command:
  APP_ROOT$ rake db:migrate

That should create an SQLite DB file named development.sqlite3 under location <APP_ROOT>/db

Setup Doorkeeper-Provider-App URL and Credentials

  1. Open up <APP_ROOT>/config/initializers/01_doorkeeper_app_settings.rb for editing and set the values, in your context, for following constants:

    • DOORKEEPER_APP_ID
    • DOORKEEPER_APP_SECRET
    • DOORKEEPER_PROVIDER_URL
    • DOORKEEPER_PROTECTED_ENDPOINT_PREFIX

DOORKEEPER_PROVIDER_URL should point to the web-application which acts as Doorkeeper-based OAuth Provider. For e.g. let's say it is doorkeeper-provider-app and it is running on localhost at port 3000. The DOORKEEPER_PROVIDER_URL should be set to http://localhost:3000

DOORKEEPER_APP_ID and DOORKEEPER_APP_SECRET values can be obtained from the doorkeeper-provider-app by creating a new application on its end by navigating to http://localhost:3000/oauth/applications and then following the steps for creating a new application.

DOORKEEPER_PROTECTED_ENDPOINT_PREFIX is the prefix for oauth protected routes in your doorkeeper-provider-app. For e.g. let's assume you have defined following routes in your config/routes.rb in doorkeeper-provider-app then

```
  namespace :oauth_protected, path: 'oauthorized' do
    defaults format: :json do
      get :me, to: 'users#me', as: :me
    end
  end
```

then those routes should look like when using rake routes to list the available routes:

  oauth_protected_me GET    /oauthorized/me(.:format)     oauth_protected/users#me {:format=>:json}

These constants are used in following files:

  <APP_ROOT>/app/utils/omniauth/strategies/doorkeeper.rb
  <APP_ROOT>/config/initializers/devise.rb
  <APP_ROOT>/app/controllers/api_controller.rb

Start the application

Assuming the current directory is APP_ROOT, run following command:

  APP_ROOT$ rails s -p 5000

That should start your Rails application on port 5000.

Use the application

Assumptions

  • Your doorkeeper-provider-app is running on http://localhost:3000

  • In your doorkeeper-provider-app you have created a Doorkeeper application with the Redirect URI in it set as http://localhost:5000/users/auth/doorkeeper/callback. This URI should point to the host of this application.

    • doorkeeper-provider-app has some users setup for e.g. say [email protected] with password password

Steps

  1. Open up a browser and type in http://localhost:5000 and you should be see an index page on which you should see a link Sign in with OAuth 2 provider.

  2. Let's assume the user [email protected] on doorkeeper-provider-app wants to connect his account in this client-application. For that he should click the Sign in with OAuth 2 provider link which should trigger the OAuth Authorization and Access Token workflow.

  3. Assuming that the user [email protected] has not already signed-in on doorkeeper-provider-app the user should see the Sign-in page of doorkeeper-provider-app. Filling in correct credentials should show a page asking for Authorizing the Doorkeeper-App whose credentials are configured in this client-application. This page should display two buttons namely Authorize and Deny buttons.

  4. Clicking on Authorize button should make the doorkeeper-provider-app generate an Access Token for the user and redirect the user to the client-application.

  5. At this point user should be able to see two links:

    • My Credentials
    • Sign out

    Clicking My Credentials should display a JSON in the browser containing basic data pulled from doorkeeper-provider-app for the user [email protected] who connected his doorkeeper-provider-app's account on this client-application.
