# oauth_server
|
||
|
|
||
|
A very simple OAuth identity provider server.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following endpoints are exposed:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `/oauth/auth.html`: An OAuth2 [authorization endpoint](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#AuthorizationEndpoint).
|
||
|
In a proper OAuth2 system, this would prompt the user to log in; we just give a big "Submit" button (and an
|
||
|
auth code that can be changed if we want the next step to fail). It redirects back to the calling application
|
||
|
with a "code".
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `/oauth/token`: An OAuth2 [token endpoint](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#TokenEndpoint).
|
||
|
Receives the code issued by "auth.html" and, if it is valid, exchanges it for an OAuth2 access token.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `/oauth/userinfo`: An OAuth2 [userinfo endpoint](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#UserInfo).
|
||
|
Returns details about the owner of the offered access token.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To start the server, do:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
cy.task("startOAuthServer").then((port) => {
|
||
|
// now we can configure Synapse or Element to talk to the OAuth2 server.
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
