goauth

A comprehensive Go package that provides a unified interface for OAuth2 authentication across multiple providers. This package simplifies the integration of OAuth2 authentication in your Go applications by offering a consistent API for various OAuth2 providers.

Features

• Unified interface for all OAuth2 providers
• Easy-to-use API
• Type-safe implementation
• Extensive provider support
• Built-in token management
• Standardized user information
• Customizable scopes
• Error handling
• Token refresh support

Installation

go get -u github.com/mstgnz/goauth

Quick Start

Here's a simple example using GitHub OAuth2:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "net/http"
    "github.com/mstgnz/goauth/initialize"
    "golang.org/x/oauth2"
)

func main() {
    // Initialize the provider
    provider, err := initialize.NewProviderByName("github")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    // Configure the provider
    provider.SetClientId("your-client-id")
    provider.SetClientSecret("your-client-secret")
    provider.SetRedirectUrl("http://localhost:8080/callback")
    provider.SetScopes([]string{"read:user", "user:email"})

    // Setup login handler
    http.HandleFunc("/login", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
        url := provider.BuildAuthUrl("state", oauth2.AccessTypeOffline)
        http.Redirect(w, r, url, http.StatusTemporaryRedirect)
    })

    // Setup callback handler
    http.HandleFunc("/callback", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
        // Exchange code for token
        token, err := provider.FetchToken(r.URL.Query().Get("code"))
        if err != nil {
            http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
            return
        }

        // Get user information
        user, err := provider.FetchUser(token)
        if err != nil {
            http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
            return
        }

        log.Printf("Logged in user: %+v", user)
    })

    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil))
}

Advanced Usage

Custom Scopes

provider.SetScopes([]string{
    "read:user",
    "user:email",
    "custom:scope",
})

Token Refresh

newToken, err := provider.RefreshToken(oldToken)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

Custom HTTP Client

client := provider.Client(token)
resp, err := client.Get("https://api.provider.com/endpoint")

Best Practices

1. Environment Variables: Store sensitive credentials in environment variables

   provider.SetClientId(os.Getenv("OAUTH_CLIENT_ID"))
   provider.SetClientSecret(os.Getenv("OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET"))
   

2. State Parameter: Always validate the state parameter

   if r.URL.Query().Get("state") != expectedState {
       http.Error(w, "Invalid state parameter", http.StatusBadRequest)
       return
   }
   

3. Error Handling: Implement proper error handling

   if err := provider.ValidateConfig(); err != nil {
       log.Fatal("Configuration error:", err)
   }
   

Security Considerations

• Always use HTTPS in production
• Implement CSRF protection using the state parameter
• Store tokens securely
• Use environment variables for credentials
• Implement PKCE when available
• Keep scopes to minimum required
• Properly handle token expiration and refresh
