Running the Dev Apps for MSAL Go

To run one of the dev app which uses MSAL Go, the config.json file and the confidential_config.json should look like the following:

{
    "authority": "https://login.microsoftonline.com/organizations",
    "client_id": "your_client_id",
    "scopes": ["user.read"],
    "username": "your_username",
    "password": "your_password",
    "redirect_uri": "redirect uri registered on the portal",
    "code_challenge": "transformed code verifier from PKCE",  
    "state": "state parameter for authorization code flow",
    "client_secret": "client secret you generated for your app",
    "thumbprint": "the certificate thumbprint defined in your app generation",
    "pem_file": "the file path of your private key pem"
}

The dev apps in this repo get tokens for the MS Graph API. To find permissible scopes for MS Graph, visit this link. PKCE is explained here.

On Windows

To run the dev samples: cd test/devapps

run the command:

'go run ./ 1'

Alternatives:

• 1 build and run "locally"

  • In the devapps folder
  • type 'go build'
  • type 'devapps.exe 1' to run the device code flow

• 2 (Advanced) install and run from the gobin folder

  • See more: https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Compile_and_install_packages_and_dependencies
  • In the devapps folder
  • type 'go install'
  • locate your gobin folder e.g. type 'go env' to find your gobin folder location cd to your gobin folder
  • type 'devapps.exe 1' to run the device code flow

On Mac

To run one of the devapps, run the command go run src/test/devapps/*.go <devapps-number>. The devapp numbers are as follows:

• 1 - device_code_flow_sample.go
• 2 - authorization_code_sample.go
• 3 - username_password_sample.go
• 4 - confidential_auth_code_sample.go
• 5 - client_secret_sample.go
• 6 - client_certificate_sample.go
