oauth_server

A very simple OAuth identity provider server.

The following endpoints are exposed:

  • /oauth/auth.html: An OAuth2 authorization endpoint. 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. 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. Returns details about the owner of the offered access token.

To start the server, do:

cy.task("startOAuthServer").then((port) => {
    // now we can configure Synapse or Element to talk to the OAuth2 server.
});
