    • Github - Assent.Strategy.Github
    • Gitlab - Assent.Strategy.Gitlab
    • Google - Assent.Strategy.Google
    • Instagram - Assent.Strategy.Instagram
    • LINE Login - Assent.Strategy.LINE
    • Linkedin - Assent.Strategy.Linkedin
    • Slack - Assent.Strategy.Slack
    • Stripe Connect - Assent.Strategy.Stripe
    • Twitter - Assent.Strategy.Twitter
    • VK - Assent.Strategy.VK

Installation

Add Assent to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

defp deps do
  [
    # ...
    {:assent, "~> 0.2.3"},

     # Required for SSL validation with :httpc adapter
    {:certifi, "~> 2.4"},
    {:ssl_verify_fun, "~> 1.1"}
  ]
end

Run mix deps.get to install it.

By default, :httpc will be used for HTTP requests. To compile the app with :httpc support, please add :inets to :extra_applications in mix.exs:

def application do
  [
    # ...
    extra_applications: [
      # ...
      :inets
    ]
  ]
end

This is not necessary if you'll use another HTTP adapter, such as Mint.

Assent requires Erlang OTP 22.1 or greater.

Getting started

A strategy consists of two phases; request and callback. In the request phase, the user would normally be redirected to the provider for authentication, and then returned back to initiate the callback phase.

Single provider example

config = [
  client_id: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_ID",
  client_secret: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_SECRET",
  redirect_uri: "http://localhost:4000/oauth/callback"
]

# Redirect user to provider
{:ok, %{url: url, session_params: session_params}} =
  Assent.Strategy.Github.authorize_url(config)

# Handle callback
{:ok, %{user: user, token: token}} =
  config
  |> Assent.Config.put(:session_params, session_params)
  |> Assent.Strategy.Github.callback(params)

Multi-provider example

This is a generalized flow that's similar to what's used in PowAssent.

config :my_app, :strategies,
  github: [
    client_id: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_ID",
    client_secret: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_SECRET",
    strategy: Assent.Strategy.Github
  ],
  # ...
defmodule MultiProvider do
  @spec request(atom()) :: {:ok, map()} | {:error, term()}
  def request(provider) do
    config = config!(provider)

    config[:strategy].authorize_url(config)
  end

  @spec callback(atom(), map(), map()) :: {:ok, map()} | {:error, term()}
  def callback(provider, params, session_params \\ %{}) do
    config =
      provider
      |> config!()
      |> Assent.Config.put(:session_params, session_params)

    config[:strategy].callback(config, params)
  end

  defp config!(provider) do
    Application.get_env(:my_app, :strategies)[provider] || raise "No provider configuration for #{provider}"
  end
end

Custom provider

You can add your own custom strategy.

Here's an example of an OAuth 2.0 implementation using Assent.Strategy.OAuth2.Base:

defmodule TestProvider do
  use Assent.Strategy.OAuth2.Base

  @impl true
  def default_config(_config) do
    [
      site: "http://localhost:4000/api/v1", # The base URL to use for any paths below
      authorize_url: "http://localhost:4000/oauth/authorize", # Full URL will not use the `:site` option
      token_url: "/oauth/access_token",
      user_url: "/user",
      authorization_params: [scope: "email profile"],
      auth_method: :client_secret_post
    ]
  end

  @impl true
  def normalize(_config, user) do
    {:ok,
      # Conformed to https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#rfc.section.5.1
      %{
        "sub"      => user["sub"],
        "name"     => user["name"],
        "nickname" => user["username"],
        "email"    => user["email"]
      # },
      # # Provider specific data not part of the standard claims spec
      # %{
      #   "http://localhost:4000/bio" => user["bio"]
      }
    }
  end
end

The normalized user map should conform to the OpenID Connect Core 1.0 Standard Claims spec, and should return either {:ok, userinfo_claims} or {:ok, userinfo_claims, additional}. Any keys defined in the userinfo claims that aren't part of the specs will not be included in the user map. Instead, they should be set in the additional data that will then be merged on top of the userinfo claims excluding any keys that already been set.

You can also use Assent.Strategy:

defmodule TestProvider do
  @behaviour Assent.Strategy

  @spec authorize_url(Keyword.t()) :: {:ok, %{url: binary()}} | {:error, term()}
  def authorize_url(config) do
    # Generate authorization url
  end

  @spec callback(Keyword.t(), map()) :: {:ok, %{user: map(), token: map()}} | {:error, term()}
  def callback(config, params) do
    # Handle callback response
  end
end

HTTP Adapter

By default Erlangs built-in :httpc is used for requests. SSL verification is automatically enabled when :certifi and :ssl_verify_fun packages are available. :httpc only supports HTTP/1.1.

If you would like HTTP/2 support, you should consider adding Mint to your project.

Update mix.exs:

defp deps do
  [
    # ...
    {:mint, "~> 1.0"},
    {:castore, "~> 1.0"} # Required for SSL validation
  ]
end

Pass the :http_adapter with your provider configuration:

config = [
  client_id: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_ID",
  client_secret: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_SECRET",
  http_adapter: Assent.HTTPAdapter.Mint
]

JWT Adapter

By default the built-in Assent.JWTAdapter.AssentJWT is used for JWT parsing, but you can change it to any third-party library with a custom Assent.JWTAdapter. A JOSE adapter Assent.JWTAdapter.JOSE is included.

To use JOSE, update mix.exs:

defp deps do
  [
    # ...
    {:jose, "~> 1.8"}
  ]
end

And pass the :jwt_adapter with your provider configuration:

config = [
  client_id: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_ID",
  client_secret: "REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_SECRET",
  jwt_adapter: Assent.JWTAdapter.JOSE
]
