The below public function returns oauth token against user name and password. However, I have a requirement where, the username has to queried first from email id. In the first part of the function, I need to somehow add the username to the request object. The request is created using laminas from what I can understand.
Full code from which function is taken is here.
/**
* Processes POST requests to /oauth/token.
*/
public function token(ServerRequestInterface $request) {
////////////////
////////////////
// ADD LOGIC TO GET EMAIL FROM REQUEST & GET USERNAME
// ADD USERNAME TO $request
////////////////
////////////////
//Extract the grant type from the request body.
$body = $request->getParsedBody();
$grant_type_id = !empty($body['grant_type']) ? $body['grant_type'] : 'implicit';
$client_drupal_entity = NULL;
if (!empty($body['client_id'])) {
$consumer_storage = $this->entityTypeManager()->getStorage('consumer');
$client_drupal_entities = $consumer_storage
->loadByProperties([
'uuid' => $body['client_id'],
]);
if (empty($client_drupal_entities)) {
return OAuthServerException::invalidClient($request)
->generateHttpResponse(new Response());
}
$client_drupal_entity = reset($client_drupal_entities);
}
// Get the auth server object from that uses the League library.
try {
// Respond to the incoming request and fill in the response.
$auth_server = $this->grantManager->getAuthorizationServer($grant_type_id, $client_drupal_entity);
$response = $this->handleToken($request, $auth_server);
}
catch (OAuthServerException $exception) {
watchdog_exception('simple_oauth', $exception);
$response = $exception->generateHttpResponse(new Response());
}
return $response;
}
The request is send as form data:
See example js code below:
(username is accepted, email param is added to demonstrate whats needed)
var formdata = new FormData();
formdata.append("grant_type", "password");
formdata.append("client_id", "828472a8-xxxx-xxxx-xxx-ab041d3b313a");
formdata.append("client_secret", "secret-xxx-xxx-xxx");
//formdata.append("username", "username");
formdata.append("email", "email#email.com");
formdata.append("password", "password");
var requestOptions = {
method: 'POST',
body: formdata,
redirect: 'follow'
};
fetch("{{base_url}}oauth/token", requestOptions)
.then(response => response.text())
.then(result => console.log(result))
.catch(error => console.log('error', error));
I've been tasked to build a web interface for an Android app based on firebase.
I've got a handful of endpoints, that interact with the database (Cloud functions). To access those endpoints I need to authenticate an user with email and password[1], retrieve an accessToken[2] und authorize every request to the endpoints with an Authorization: Bearer {accessToken} header.
I use php and struggle to wrap my mind around how to manage authenticated user in my app.
TL;DR please see my final solution in php only. https://stackoverflow.com/a/52119600/814031
I transfer the accessToken via ajax in a php session, to sign the cURL requests to the endpoints.
Apparently there is no other way around than use the firebase JS auth (not as far as I understand[4]).
My question is: Is it enough to save the accessToken in a php session and compare it with every page load via an ajax POST request (see code below)?
What would be a more robust strategy to handle that in php?
Edit: A user pointed out that using classic php sessions with JWT tokens don't make much sense and I read up about that topic.
So regarding Firebase - is this something to consider?
https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/admin/manage-cookies
Firebase Auth provides server-side session cookie management for traditional websites that rely on session cookies. This solution has several advantages over client-side short-lived ID tokens, which may require a redirect mechanism each time to update the session cookie on expiration:
Here is what I got:
1. Login Page
As described in the Firebase examples[3]
function initApp() {
firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(function (user) {
if (user) {
// User is signed in.
// obtain token, getIdToken(false) = no forced refresh
firebase.auth().currentUser.getIdToken(false).then(function (idToken) {
// Send token to your backend via HTTPS
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '/auth/check',
data: {'token': idToken},
complete: function(data){
// data = {'target' => '/redirect/to/route'}
if(getProperty(data, 'responseJSON.target', false)){
window.location.replace(getProperty(data, 'responseJSON.target'));
}
}
});
// ...
}).catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
} else {
// User Signed out
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '/auth/logout',
complete: function(data){
// data = {'target' => '/redirect/to/route'}
if(getProperty(data, 'responseJSON.target', false)){
// don't redirect to itself
// logout => /
if(window.location.pathname != getProperty(data, 'responseJSON.target', false)){
window.location.replace(getProperty(data, 'responseJSON.target'));
}
}
}
});
// User is signed out.
}
});
}
window.onload = function () {
initApp();
};
2. a php controller to handle the auth requests
public function auth($action)
{
switch($action) {
// auth/logout
case 'logout':
unset($_SESSION);
// some http status header and mime type header
echo json_encode(['target' => '/']); // / => index page
break;
case 'check':
// login.
if(! empty($_POST['token']) && empty($_SESSION['token'])){
// What if I send some bogus data here? The call to the Endpoint later would fail anyway
// But should it get so far?
$_SESSION['token'] = $_POST['token'];
// send a redirect target back to the JS
echo json_encode(['target' => '/dashboard']);
break;
}
if($_POST['token'] == $_SESSION['token']){
// do nothing;
break;
}
break;
}
}
3. the Main controller
// pseudo code
class App
{
public function __construct()
{
if($_SESSION['token']){
$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
// $user now holds all custom access rights within the app.
$this->user = $client->request(
'GET',
'https://us-centralx-xyz.cloudfunctions.net/user_endpoint',
['headers' =>
[
'Authorization' => "Bearer {$_SESSION['token']}"
]
]
)->getBody()->getContents();
}else{
$this->user = null;
}
}
public function dashboard(){
if($this->user){
var_dump($this->user);
}else{
unset($_SESSION);
// redirect to '/'
}
}
}
Note: I'm aware of this sdk https://github.com/kreait/firebase-php and I read a lot in the issues there and in posts here on SO, but I got confused, since there is talk about full admin rights etc. and I really only interact with the endpoints that build upon firebase (plus firebase auth and firestore). And I'm still on php 5.6 :-/
Thanks for your time!

I have to admit, the complexity of the firebase docs and examples and different services, got me so confused, that I thought, authentication for the web is only possible via JavaScript. That was wrong. At least for my case, where I just login with email and password to retrieve a Json Web Token (JWT), to sign all calls to the Firebase cloud functions. Instead of juggling with weird Ajax requests or set the token cookie via JavaScript, I just needed to call the Firebase Auth REST API
Here is a minimal case using the Fatfreeframework:
Login form
<form action="/auth" method="post">
<input name="email">
<input name="password">
<input type="submit">
</form>
Route
$f3->route('POST /auth', 'App->auth');
Controller
class App
{
function auth()
{
$email = $this->f3->get('POST.email');
$password = $this->f3->get('POST.password');
$apiKey = 'API_KEY'; // see https://firebase.google.com/docs/web/setup
$auth = new Auth($apiKey);
$result = $auth->login($email,$password);
if($result['success']){
$this->f3->set('COOKIE.token',$result['idToken']);
$this->f3->reroute('/dashboard');
}else{
$this->f3->clear('COOKIE.token');
$this->f3->reroute('/');
}
}
}
Class
<?php
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
class Auth
{
protected $apiKey;
public function __construct($apiKey){
$this->apiKey = $apiKey;
}
public function login($email,$password)
{
$client = new Client();
// Create a POST request using google api
$key = $this->apiKey;
$responsee = $client->request(
'POST',
'https://www.googleapis.com/identitytoolkit/v3/relyingparty/verifyPassword?key=' . $key,
[
'headers' => [
'content-type' => 'application/json',
'Accept' => 'application/json'
],
'body' => json_encode([
'email' => $email,
'password' => $password,
'returnSecureToken' => true
]),
'exceptions' => false
]
);
$body = $responsee->getBody();
$js = json_decode($body);
if (isset($js->error)) {
return [
'success' => false,
'message' => $js->error->message
];
} else {
return [
'success' => true,
'localId' => $js->localId,
'idToken' => $js->idToken,
'email' => $js->email,
'refreshToken' => $js->refreshToken,
'expiresIn' => $js->expiresIn,
];
}
}
}

Hope this helps. It is from my working system, which includes some extra features I've put in there along the way, but mostly it is directly from firebase so you should be able to follow along well enough.
Seems a much simpler route to take than your original one.
You really aren't supposed to use sessions in PHP when using tokens. Tokens should be sent in the header on every request (or a cookie works too).
Tokens work like this:
1. You sign in, the server mints a token with some information encoded
2. You send that token back on every request
Based on the information encoded in the token, the server can get information about the user. Typically a User ID of some sort is encoded in it. The server knows it's a valid token because of the way it's encoded.
Send the token on every request you need to make, then in PHP you can just pass that token to the other API
I'm struggling with getting additional scope information from the Google PHP API. I'm using it in conjunction with JavaScript to get an access token (not sure if this is the correct way, but it works for me)
I have a Google sign up button on my page that's connected to the following function. Basically, it gets a response token to send to my PHP server trough AJAX.
gapi.load('auth2', function() {
// Retrieve the singleton for the GoogleAuth library and set up the client.
auth2 = gapi.auth2.init({
client_id: 'XXXX',
cookie_policy: 'single_host_origin',
// Requesting additional scopes
scope: 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login'
});
auth2.attachClickHandler(document.getElementById('google-login-signup'), {},
function(googleUser) {
if ( auth2.isSignedIn.get() ) {
var data = {
'action': 'social_google_login',
'_nonce': $('#google-login-signup').attr('data-nonce'),
'redirect_to': $('#google-login-signup').attr('data-redirect-to'),
'token': googleUser.getAuthResponse().id_token
}
$.ajax({
url: ajax_url,
type: 'POST',
data: data,
success: function(response) {
console.log(response);
if ( response.success === true ) {
window.location.href = response.data.redirect;
}
}
});
}
}, function(error) {
console.log(error);
}
);
});
Then on my server, the token is retrieved and fed through the following function, which checks if the token is valid and returns the info:
public function connect() {
$client = new Google_Client();
$credentials = json_decode('XXXX', true);
$client->setAuthConfig($credentials);
$payload = $client->verifyIdToken($_POST['token']);
if ( !$payload ) {
return new WP_Error('invalid_payload', 'The payload was invalid.');
}
return $payload;
}
This all works fine, except that it doesn't include the information from the additional scopes I requested in the JavaScript function. How can I get this additional scope information such as the birthday and sex?
Just for reference, this is what the $payload variable returns:
at_hash: "XXXX"
aud: "XXXX.apps.googleusercontent.com"
azp: "XXXX.apps.googleusercontent.com"
email: "XXXX#gmail.com"
email_verified: true
exp: 1520189629
family_name: "XXXX"
given_name: "XXXX"
iat: XXXX
iss: "accounts.google.com"
jti: "XXXX"
locale: "en"
name: "XXXX XXXX"
picture: "XXXX"
sub: "XXXX"
I managed to figure it out. The main problem was I was trying to access data through the id_token, but what I needed to do was use an access_token and pass it through other Google APIs.
In case anyone stumbles upon this, here is my new and improved code, which also fixes some issues I had unrelated to this question.
JavaScript
$('#google-login-signup').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
gapi.load('auth2', function() {
var scopes = [
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email',
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile',
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login'
];
// Use gapi.auth2.authorize instead of gapi.auth2.init.
// This is because I only need the data from Google once.
gapi.auth2.authorize({
'client_id': 'XXXX.apps.googleusercontent.com',
'cookie_policy': 'single_host_origin',
'fetch_basic_profile': false,
'ux_mode': 'popup',
'scope': scopes.join(' '),
'prompt': 'select_account'
},
function(googleResponse) {
if ( googleResponse.error ) {
return;
}
var data = {
'action': 'social_google_login',
'_nonce': $('#google-login-signup').attr('data-nonce'),
'redirect_to': $('#google-login-signup').attr('data-redirect-to'),
// Instead of id_token, send the access_token.
// This is needed for accessing the scope info from other APIs.
'access_token': googleResponse.access_token
}
$.ajax({
url: ajax_url,
type: 'POST',
data: data,
success: function(response) {
if ( response.success === true ) {
window.location.href = response.data.redirect;
}
}
});
});
});
});
PHP
public function connect() {
$client = new Google_Client();
$credentials = json_decode('XXXX', true);
$client->setAuthConfig($credentials);
// Set Access Token
$client->setAccessToken($_POST['access_token']);
// Connect to Oauth2 API after providing access_token to client
$oauth2 = new Google_Service_Oauth2($client);
if ( !$oauth2 ) {
return new WP_Error('invalid_access_token', 'The access_token was invalid.');
}
// Contains basic user info
$google_user = $this->get_user($oauth2->userinfo->get());
// To get the plus.login scope we need to setup a Google_Service_Plus
$google_plus_service = new Google_Service_Plus($client);
// Contains Google+ profile info
$profile = $google_plus_service->people->get('me');
}
That's it! it was basically an issue of not knowing that I needed to access a different Google_Service to get the additional scope information.
In Google Developers API Console search for Google People API, Enable it and use these scopes as well:
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/contacts | Manage your contacts
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/contacts.readonly | View your contacts
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login | Know the list of people in your circles, your age range, and language

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/user.phonenumbers.read | View your phone numbers
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email | View your email address
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile | View your basic profile info
Lists of all available scopes documented in here
Okay, I'm stuck with a login. It suppose to send this data with a post method:
POST URL:
/user/login?_format=json
Header:
Content-Type: application/json
POST data:
{
"name": "username",
"pass": "password"
}
I do all that with the login() function:
login (user: User): Observable<User> {
// let's make the url
const url = `${this.mainUrl}/user/login?_format=json`;
// the data comes in the 'user' array
// the header is define above "Content-Type": "application/json"
const loginReturn = this.http.post(url, user, header);
return loginReturn
.pipe(
tap((user: User) => this.log(`Looged user id=${user.id}`)),
catchError(this.handleError<User>('login'))
);
}
And it works, but i dont know how to manage this Successful response:
{
"current_user":{
"uid": "1",
"roles":[
"authenticated",
"administrator"
],
"name": "username"
},
"csrf_token": "asda09820380_2238019280dk09n908asjdlkajdaoa",
"logout_token": "asdasd09a8sdaslkdasl-asdasdklsajdlkasdjlksj"
}
I need to use the csrf_token and the logout_token for future get methods.
For log out, use the logout token in a GET request. The ends the user's session.
/user/logout?_format=json&token=asdasd09a8sdaslkdasl-asdasdklsajdlkasdjlksj
GET login status:
/user/login_status?_format=json
GET token:
/rest/session/token
I want to know how to use the tokens coming from the post method...
thanks you, and sorry for the silly question.
Here is a basic example
Subscribe to your login method to log the user in from your authentication service
//authenticationService.ts
doLogin()
{
yourService.login().subscribe(user=>
{
//set your own flags to log the user in here and store relevant info
localStorage.setItem('currentUser', JSON.stringify(user));
localStorage.setItem('currentCSRFToken', user.csrf_token);
})
}
doLogout()
{
let logoutToken = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('currentUser')).logout_token;
yourService.logout(logoutToken).subscribe(resp=>
{
//set your own flags to log the user out here and reset session data
localStorage.setItem('currentUser', null);
localStorage.setItem('currentCSRFToken', null);
})
}
And add this logout method to the service where you declared the loginmethod
//yourService.ts
logout (logoutToken: string): Observable<any> { //don't know what your logout method returns
const url = `${this.mainUrl}/user/logout?_format=json&token=${logoutToken}`;
return this.http.get(url, user);
}
I created a login API with JWT, I tested it with Postman and curl via terminal and it works great. But when I'm trying to get it to work using jQuery ajax and it responds with
POST http://router.dev/api/login 401 (Unauthorized)
This is suppose to be on login, to generate a token. This is the ajax code:
var authenticate = function(){
return $.ajax({
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
data: {email:'apitest#example.com',password:12346},
url: 'http://router.dev/api/login'
});
}
And this is the auth method I'm using:
public function authenticate(Request $request){
// grab credentials from the request
$credentials = $request->only('email', 'password');
//dd($credentials);
try {
config(['auth.providers.users.model' => \App\Usuarios::class]);
$token = JWTAuth::attempt($credentials);
// dd($token);
// attempt to verify the credentials and create a token for the user
if (! $token) {
return response()->json(['error' => 'invalid_credentials'], 401);
}
} catch (JWTException $e) {
// something went wrong whilst attempting to encode the token
return response()->json(['error' => 'could_not_create_token'], 500);
}
// all good so return the token
return response()->json(compact('token'));
}
Maybe it's something dull. Thanks in advance.
