# warden-github-rails [![Build Status][build-image]][build-link] [![Gem Version][gem-image]][gem-link] [![Dependency Status][deps-image]][deps-link] [![Code Climate][gpa-image]][gpa-link] [![Coverage Status][cov-image]][cov-link] A gem for rails that provides easy GitHub OAuth integration. It is built on top of [warden-github](https://github.com/atmos/warden-github), which gives you an easy to use [warden](https://github.com/hassox/warden) strategy to authenticate GitHub users. ## Motivation **Wouldn't it be nice to** - use your organization and its teams for user access control? - add a new employee to your GitHub organization or team in order to grant them access to your app's admin area? The motivation for this gem was to provide a very easy authorization (not authentication) mechanism to existing rails apps for admins, especially in combination with organization and team memberships. The provided routing helpers do exactly that. They allow you to restrict access to members of your organization or a certain team. This is how your rails `routes.rb` could look like: ```ruby constraints(subdomain: 'admin') do github_authenticate(org: 'my_company_inc') do resources :users resources :projects github_authenticated(team: 'sysadmins') do resource :infrastructure end end end ``` Of course, this gem can also be used for user registration and authentication. Several helper methods are available in the controller to accomplish this: ```ruby class UsersController < ApplicationController # ... def new github_authenticate! # Performs OAuth flow when not logged in. @user = User.new(name: github_user.name, email: github_user.email) end def create attrs = params.require(:user).permit(:name, :email).merge(github_id: github_user.id) @user = User.create(attrs) if @user.persisted? redirect_to :show else render :new end end # ... end ``` ## Example App This repository includes an example app in [example/](example/). To play with it, follow these steps: 1. [Create an OAuth application in your GitHub settings](https://github.com/settings/applications/new). Set the callback URL to `http://localhost:3000/` 2. Check out this repo and run: ``` $ bundle $ cd example $ GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=your_id_from_step1 GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=your_secret_from_step1 bundle exec rails s ``` 3. Point your browser to [http://localhost:3000/](http://localhost:3000/) and enjoy! ## Installation To use this gem, add it to your `Gemfile`: ```ruby gem 'warden-github-rails' ``` If you're using devise, make sure to use version 2.2.4 or newer. Previous versions are not compatible with warden-github-rails and thus will not work. See the note at [*Using alongside Devise and other Warden Gems*](#using-alongside-devise-and-other-warden-gems) for an explanation. ## Usage ### Configuration First off, you might want to configure this gem by creating an initializer such as `config/initializers/warden_github_rails.rb`. There you can define: - various scopes and their configs (scopes are types of users with different configs) - the default scope (which is `:user` by default) - team aliases (GitHub teams are identified by a numerical ID; defining an alias for a team makes it easier to use) Here's how such a config might look like: ```ruby Warden::GitHub::Rails.setup do |config| config.add_scope :user, client_id: 'foo', client_secret: 'bar', scope: 'user:email' config.add_scope :admin, client_id: 'abc', client_secret: 'xyz', redirect_uri: '/admin/login/callback', scope: 'read:org' config.default_scope = :admin config.add_team :marketing, 456 end ``` For a list of allowed config parameters to use in `#add_scope`, read the [warden-github documentation](https://github.com/atmos/warden-github#parameters). ### Inside `routes.rb` The available routing helpers are defined and documented in [lib/warden/github/rails/routes.rb](lib/warden/github/rails/routes.rb). They all accept an optional scope that, when omitted, falls back to the default_scope configured in the initializer. Examples: ```ruby # Performs login if not logged in already. github_authenticate do resource :profile end # Does not perform login when not logged in. github_authenticated do delete '/logout' => 'sessions#delete' end # Only matches when not logged in. Does not perform login. github_unauthenticated do resource :registration end # Only matches when member of the organization. Initiates login if not logged in. github_authenticate(org: 'my_company') do resource :admin end # Only matches when member of the team. Does not initiate login if not logged in. github_authenticated(team: 'markting') do get '/dashboard' => 'dashboard#show' end # Matches if a member of any of the teams given. Does not initiate login if not logged in. github_authenticated(team: ['markting', 'graphic-design']) do get '/dashboard' => 'dashboard#show' end # Using dynamic membership values: github_authenticate(org: lambda { |req| req.params[:id] }) do get '/orgs/:id' => 'orgs#show' end ``` ### Inside a Controller The available controller helpers are defined and documented in [lib/warden/github/rails/controller_helpers.rb](lib/warden/github/rails/controller_helpers.rb). They all accept an optional scope that, when omitted, falls back to the default_scope configured in the initializer. ```ruby class SomeController < ActionController::Base def show @is_admin = github_authenticated?(:admin) end def delete github_logout redirect_to '/' end def settings github_authenticate! @settings = UserSettings.find_by(github_user_id: github_user.id) end def finish_wizard github_session[:wizard_completed] = true end def followers @followers = github_user.api.followers end end ``` ### Communicating with the GitHub API Once a user is logged in, you'll have access to it in the controller using `github_user`. It is an instance of `Warden::GitHub::User` which is defined in the [warden-github](https://github.com/atmos/warden-github/blob/master/lib/warden/github/user.rb) gem. The instance has several methods to access user information such as `#name`, `#id`, `#email`, etc. It also features a method `#api` which returns a preconfigured [Octokit](https://github.com/octokit/octokit.rb) client for that user. ### Test Helpers This gems comes with a couple test helpers to make your life easier: - A method is added to `Rack::Response` called `#github_oauth_redirect?` which returns true if the response is a redirect to a url that starts with `https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize`. You can use it in your request tests to make sure the OAuth dance is initiated. In rspec you could verify this as follows: ```ruby subject { get '/some-url-that-triggers-oauth' } it { is_expected.to be_github_oauth_redirect } ``` - A mock user that allows you to stub team and organization memberships: ```ruby user = Warden::GitHub::Rails::TestHelpers::MockUser.new user.stub_membership(team: [234, 987], org: 'some-inc') user.team_member?(234) # => true user.organization_member?('rails') # => false ``` - A method that creates a mock user and logs it in. If desired, the scope can be specified. The method returns the mock user so that you can manipulate it further: ```ruby user = github_login(:admin) get '/org/rails/admin' expect(response).to be_not_found user.stub_membership(org: 'rails') get '/org/rails/admin' expect(response).to be_ok ``` In order to use the mock user and the `#github_login` method, make sure to `require 'warden/github/rails/test_helpers'` and to `include Warden::GitHub::Rails::TestHelpers` in your tests. ## Using alongside Devise and other Warden Gems Currently this gem does not play nicely with other gems that setup a warden middleware. The reason is that warden simply does not have support for multiple middlewares. The warden middleware configures a warden instance and adds it to the rack environment. Any other warden middleware downstream checks for any existing warden instance in the environment and, if present, skips itself. I've opened an [issue](https://github.com/hassox/warden/issues/67) on the warden repository to discuss possible workarounds. Nevertheless, this gem is compatible with devise for version 2.2.4 and newer. devise allows you to specify a block that will be invoked when the warden middleware is configured. This functionality is used in this gem in order to setup the github strategy for warden instead of inserting our own middleware. ## Additional Information ### Dependencies - [warden-github](https://github.com/atmos/warden-github) - [warden](https://github.com/hassox/warden) - [octokit](https://github.com/octokit/octokit.rb) ### Author Philipe Fatio ([@fphilipe][fphilipe twitter]) [![Support via Gittip][tip-image]][tip-link] ### License MIT License.
