About

Stateless authentication microservice for "login-with" functionality, supporting:

• Twitter
• GitHub
• Reddit
• Facebook
• Google
• Mixer
• ... more to come (PRs welcome)

You can deploy with now or Docker (for mandatory and optional env variables see below).

sh$ now lipp/login-with$ docker run lipp/login-with

This microservice must run in a subdomain of yours, e.g. login.yourdomain.com.

html Login with Twitter

On successful login two cookies will be created:

• jwt - A "JSON Web Token" (JWT) containing profile information and the respective access tokens (Twitter/etc). http-only!
• profile - A JSON string which containing non-sensitive information (accessible from browser JS):
  • username - string / mandatory, the account specific user alias (e.g. Twitter name) - photo - string / optional, the account specific user image link
  • name - string / optional, the "real" name

The cookies will be available for your toplevel domain and all subdomains. In addition, the cookie's secure flag is set, which means that your other websites/webservices must run over https.

The configuration is done by means of environment variables.
